What a surprise, Dora was so well prepared, introduced us to a variety of foods and drinks of Budapest. She was so thoughtful that our final stop was next to our hotel. Highly recommend Dora.

Welcome and hello my dear future guests! My name is Dóra, a licensed tour guide in Budapest since 2016. I've dedicated my time to guide people from all around the world, which means thousands of satisfied guests:) I was born and raised in Budapest, which gave the basis of a perfect beginning of a beautiful friendship between the city and me. We have a quite old relationship we've changed together, we know each other, this way I could become a really eyewitness of the change of Budapest from the previous system to the present one. Coming to Budapest? Great! I LOVE Budapest and it's time to share it with you I believe that we can connect to each other through the culture. So let me share my love, my culture, my knowledge and my enthusiasm with you. I'll guide you through my city, uncovering its excited history and showing you its well-known, as well as hidden treasures. I believe in the story telling tours, but if you need dry facts as a fan of history I can provide it to you also. I think that the present and the future can not be understandable without knowing the past. I am sensitiv to people's needs and emotions, I can read the room, therefore I'm able to provide you an unique and personalised experience. Because sightseeing is an experience, a feeling, that can make your holiday. Whether you are looking for a real understanding of the history and culture of Budapest, or if you just looking for the special spots in the city, everything is possible. I'm full of stories and fun facts and the corners of the streets just greet me:) I'm going to show you how and where it all began. Feel free to get in touch and let's work out how to make the most of your time! It's my job and my passion to show you the wonders of Budapest so that you go home with precious memories and the feeling that you wanna come back! Just let me know and I will create a tailor-made tour for you, according to your interests and wishes. Now, I'm inviting you for a trip to BUDAPEST to admire all faces of my city through the different historical sights, buildings, streets. Therefore I'm here to give you the opportunity to see this city or the country with me. But just let my tours speak instead of me! See you soon!

What a pleasure it was to spend time with Dora on our food tour of Budapest. We enjoyed an extensive visit through the central market that explored areas we would have never found. Between stops we received impromptu history lessons. Plenty of traditional food, beverages, and desserts. She came prepared for everything. Unequivocally recommend.
Thomas C.United States
Dora not only knows Budapest but adores it! She made our tour both a culinary and city adventure. We walked away having been to places, eating food, and drinking wines we never would have found on our own. All the while Dora was a great conversationalist and host that made us feel welcome. Highly recommended.
Rallis P.United States
We thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon with Dora and loved visiting some of her favorite spots. The mix of history and sampling of Hungarian specialties was perfect. I’m always happy when I’m learning and trying new things and Dora’s tour made me happy!
Holly R.United States
If I could give 10 stars I would! Dora was so friendly and knowledgeable. She listened to what we wanted and, boy, did she provide! We not only learned about the foods of Budapest, but also the history. Highly recommend!

Dora did a great job. Made the tour interesting. Took us to place not on the tourist map. Introduced us to lots of new and interesting foods
Your Budapest tour itinerary
- Starting at the Great Market Hall (or mutual agreed meeting point) and we dive into the market life and taste different Hungarian bites, just as Lángos, different Salamies and Sausages, Pickles and Strudel. - Then we will have a digestion break with a typical Hungarian spirit, with a Hungaricum, the Unicum. - After it we are going to explore more typical Hungarian meals in a restaurant, as Gulyás and fresh Sausages. - After we need a break, just to help for our digestiive system and copy the Hungarians with the traditional fruit brandy, the Pálinka. - Don't worry this is not the end, because you have to try some typical Hungarian sweets as well, therefore we will visit a pastry shop to try the some delicious cakes. - Then we have to visit a wine bar and taste some Hungarian Wines with Hungarian Cheeses. Anything else? Let me know and I will customise a tour for you.
