Hi! Welcome to my site! I am a professional, registered tour guide with a passion for my country especially Budapest and the Danube Bend. I was born and raised in Budapest, our capital city, and I'd love to show you the city I know - not just the famous sights, but the hidden corners, fascinating stories, local traditions, and little details that most visitors simply pass by. I am extremely lucky and proud to have gained first-hand knowledge from historians and archaeologists through my many years of studies. And I'm here to share it all with you but beware: my passion can be contagious. :) My private tours are for curious travellers who want to experience more than the average tourist. Along the way I'll share stories giving you a glimpse into the city beyond what you'll find in a guidebook. And if you have more time I'd suggest visiting our beautiful countryside: Szentendre is less than an hour away from Budapest & it's one of Hungary's most frequently visited town's by the River Danube. Everybody loves this little town, its colourful houses, cobblestone streets and hidden alleys, not to mention the fine restaurants, handmade crafts and art and its many churches. There are so many stories and so much to see that I can't wait to show it all to you! :) Check out my tours and don't forget that all of them can be altered to suit your needs and interests. My -very much loved - job is to make your day special so join me on a trip to remember! :) I am a professional tour guide, registered by the Hungarian Trade Licensing Office. I also have the license to guide in the History Museum, Budapest Dohany Street Synagogue Rumbach Synagogue and the Basilica of Esztergom.

Overview of your Budapest tour

This tour is for you if you'd like to spend more time discovering the most famous sights in Pest. Discover the history and admire the architecture of St. Stephen's Basilica and the Opera House before hopping on the cutest and oldest underground in continental Europe. Visit Vajdahunyad Castle - it's said to be modelled from a castle of the same name in Transylvania, Romania - the famous Szechenyi Spa and of course Heroes' Square is a must. Take a pleasant stroll in Kossuth Square where I'll introduce you to the history of the Parliament building and tell you about the 1956 Freedom Fights. If you'd like we can walk down to the river and visit the famous 'Shoes on the Danube Bank' - a tribute to the Jewish people who were murdered by the Arrow Cross Party. I'll show you old photos - before and after WW2 - of the city to make your trip to our past more memorable.
