Dear Visitors! I am happy to welcome You on my page! My name is Rashad, and I am a professional historian guide in Hungary. As a tour guide my main goal is to get the most of the dear visitor's time, during their visit in the most convenient way possible. That is why my tours are personalized with flexible departure times and routes. I'm fond of history and I am fascinated by the Earth's natural and cultural treasures. I graduated as a historian. Being a tour guide, I found what I was looking for. It is a great feeling, when I can present the values of Hungary, share interesting stories and information to visitors who long to see and know more, while I also constantly expand my skills and get to know new people. For me, the real success is the joy and satisfaction of my guests. I work in the field of tourism for more than 10 years. My historic and cultural tours embrace the most beautiful and the most important attractions of Budapest, which treasure and revive the history of Hungary. The walking tours provide an exquisite opportunity to immerse you in the urban maelstrom, gain insight into people's everyday lives, try out the developed public transport network of Budapest, including Europe's second oldest tram. In case you would rather sit back and enjoy the sightseeing in comfort, you can choose one of my driving tours. I wish you wonderful time in Hungary! Best regards, Rashad Professional historian guide in Hungary.

Overview of your Budapest tour

Dear Viewers! Let's leave behind the hustle and bustle of the capital and let me show you one of my favorite areas of the countryside, the picturesque Danube Bend. This tour provides a pleasant ride in this beautiful region exploring some of the oldest settlements in Hungary which played very important role in the Hungarian history: - ESZTERGOM - the former capital city, the seat of the Hungarian Catholic Church. The history of the town accumulates the history of the whole country. It was the birth and coronation place of the first Hungarian king, St. Stephen, as well as the capital of Hungary until the 13th century. -VISEGRÁD- the "high fortress" The medieval Visegrád was always in the center of attention during history due to its favorable amenities and essential strategical role. Visegrád is famous for the remains of the Early Renaissance summer palace of King Matthias Corvinus of Hungary and the medieval citadel. -SZENTENDRE- the charming Artists' Village with unique museums and art galleries.

We spent about eight hours with Rashad visiting the Daniel Bend. Rashad and his driver, Attila were on time at our hotel. He was very clear and concise about the plan for the day. The car was immaculate and very comfortable with excellent air conditioning in the warm days of Budapest. We spent the next hour driving to our first visiting site while he explained the economy of the country, cultural differences between Hungary and other countries surrounding it as well as the agricultural products of that country. Arriving at our first stop, Esztergom, he gave us a hysterical background of the city as well as the importance of the town and the historical context of the country. We visited the beautiful cathedral and spend a great deal of time in the cathedral with him while he was explaining the architecture as well as again the historical significance of the Christian culture in Hungary. The next stop, Visegrad, an old fortress is beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. Again is amazing fun knowledge and historical information was very enjoyable. Finally we arrived at Szentendre. Another beautiful, very old town, incredible business and a amazing artist community. We had a genuine local Hungarian fried bread made by a local lady in her kitchen called Langos! It was an incredible treat eating a fresh Langos I was prepared in front of us. From there, we had a beautiful drive back to the city. Overall, it was an amazing trip. Again Rashad’s fund of knowledge and historical acumen is amazing. He does not lecture. He allows you time to ask questions and enjoy your visit. Thank you, Rashad for an excellent tour.

Our group of six had a great day on the Danube Bend with Rashad. He was on time, had a great van, was easy to understand and provided us with excellent information about history at each stop and along the way. He also added lots of interesting current information along the way. You will be very pleased with any tour you take with Rashad!

Great tour with a great tour guide. One of the best we've had anywhere. Rashad was great. He's very knowledgeable and enthusiastic to pass on information. Very entertaining and easy to like. He showed up with a driver with a very nice Mercedes van, very clean. If I return to Budapest in the future, I would love to do other tours with Rashad. Book a tour with Rashad, you will not regret it. Highly recommend.
