Budapest Jewish Heritage Walk

Hello, I am Niki, a licensed Hungarian tour guide. Budapest, the heart-stealing capital of Hungary is my place of birth. I grew up and lived all my life here, except a school year in Coventry, U. K. where I improved my English. As a tour guide, I have 20 years of professional experience with travellers mainly from the U. S. A. , Canada, the U. K. , the Netherlands, Germany, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, India, Korea, and I hope YOU are going to be next! I have a strong passion for history, archeology and fine arts. I believe in lifelong learning to secure that the information I share with my travelers is always accurate and up-to-date. I always design my tours to be informative as well as inspiring and entertaining. My motto is: feel good and get more than expected! Come with me and travel like everyday residents of Budapest on the old underground or the legendary yellow trams. Let's discover the main tourist attractions and some hidden treasures of the city that only locals know. Listen to personal stories of life in a Central European capital which had long been hidden behind the iron curtain and is free now. If you stay longer, let's visit some of my favorite places outside Budapest. Lovely old palaces, charming little towns, picturesque landscape and a lot of interesting stories are waiting for you. All my tours are fully customized to your interests and flexible on the day(s) to take account of any special events taking place or the weather. With me, as your own private guide, you will have the time to fully experience everything, stopping to take the perfect photo or popping into one of the historical cafés, enjoy local delicacies or the shops we pass. Be my guest!
