I have been working as a local tour guide in Hungary since 2011. Budapest is my beautiful city where I was born and where I spent most of my life. Even though I have been travelling around the world since my early childhood, and I have lived in several countries, Hungary never ceased to be my home! I am proud of being a Hungarian and I passionatly like to show my country and tell about us Hungarians to my visitors. I really believe, that besides showing the main sights, it is also important to give a real local experience, showing the customs, the traditions, the gastronomy, the everyday life, the mentality and much more of Hungary. I speak both English and Swedish on a native level and I offer personal, tailor-made tours where I like to combine the historical facts with entertaining stories and legends. Due to my academic background, I encourage my visitors to feel free to raise questions about politics, religion, society, economy or anything else concerning life in Hungary. I also suggest visits to smaller, hidden treasures, off-the-beaten-track venues and show illustrations during the tours to make the experience really unforgettable! Let it be the capital, Budapest, or a small village in the beautiful Hungarian countryside, winetasting in a local family-run vinyard or a visit in the Jewish quarter, maybe real time-travelling back to the Communist era life. . . I am happy to guide you around! - Licensed Tour Guide, Számalk Oktatási és Informatikai Zrt., 2011. - International Studies BA, Eötvös Lóránd University, 2014. - International Relations MA, Corvinus University of Budapest, 2017. - Licensed tour guide in the Dohány Street Great Synagogue of Budapest, 2017.

Budapest is an amazing city with so many beautiful sights and programmes to offer. But besides the sightseeing tours, the best way to get to know the city and feel the rythm of the city's heartbeat is to do as the locals do. If you want to learn more about the real everyday life in Budapest, then this is your tour! We will mainly walk and travel around by local public transport on the Pest side, so that I can point out to you some magical hidden details of the city center, hidden gardens, off the beaten track pathways, less known neighborhoods, that are often overlooked during sightseeing tours focusing on the highlights. I will also show you a local ruin bar and/or a coffee house, mainly favored by the locals and give a perspective of a local Budapester in the Central Market Hall, where you can taste some farmer's products from the local vendors.
I enjoyed touring with Veronica. She pointed out many places of interest and was very knowledgeable and professional. She knows her city and country well. I would definitely enjoy touring with her again if I come back to Budapest. I recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable guide and one who is very flexible with what you want to see.
Tour was excellent. Our guide , Veronica, was excellent. One of the best guides we have ever had in all the years of traveling.
We had a very enjoyable and informative tour with Veronika. She took us on different forms of public transportation and customized our tour as we went. As we walked she gave us so many interesting facts about Budapest. So glad we did this!
We will travel around by local public transport (bus, tram or metro) and after discovering some of the hidden gems of the city center (special buildings, hidden passages, amazing art nouveau buildings and/or art galleries) we will also discover the Central Market Hall, there we can taste a few, small local snacks. The tour can be customized upon request.
