Excuse me, do you know maybe where are the most amazing and interesting sights in Hungary? No? Then you are at the right spot, to find them with me! Hello there traveller and my future friend! My name is Petra, like the city in Jordan. I'm an experienced tour guide since 2015 and also licensed tour guide in the largest European Synagogue. I speak fluent English and in any case of necessity my Spanish can help me to survive and of course, I'm a native speaker of the fourth most difficult language in the world; Hungarian. I'm energetic, enthusiastic, a history nerd and I love to talk. I was also thinking about opening a private class of dad jokes, they are my favorite, the worse the better, and like every Hungarian, I speak the second official language of this country: sarcasm. I love challenges, my main profile is customized tours when my guests want to explore more in Budapest beside the main attractions. I'm also a big fan of legends and myths, and it would be great to share all the stories with you! In my opinion, the main specialty of my city, Budapest is, it's on the edge of modern and classic. I love to walk around and see the 19th century with all of its beauty and style then only two more steps to be shocked by the "neo-ugly" communist architecture. Join to one of my tours and let's laugh, eat (or drink) and learn our way together through Hungary and Budapest! Licensed Hungarian tour guide Licensed tour guide in Dohány Street Synagogue Licensed tour guide in Rumbach street Synagogue Bachelor of Hungarian Literature I do not have a license to give tours inside the Hungarian Parliement or the Hungarian State Opera. I don't own driving license or car, but I can arrange for a car and driver.

Overview of your Budapest tour

Do you spend only a short time in Budapest but you want to get acquainted with the most important sights, like the Buda Castle and the Jewish Quarter? Or do you want to collect the greatest possible insight of this city and do as many tours as you can? If you are ready to adopt all the main sights and most important information about Budapest in one day, this tour is made for you! During this 7 hours long guided tour I would like to show and tell you everything what I think it makes Budapest the best European destination, and with stories what made me fall in love with my hometown. I hope I can make this place your best vacation experience as well. The program is the fusion of two half-day tours; in the first 3 hours we can see all the main attractions of the Hungarian capital, and then other 3 hours to focus on the very special Budapest Jewish quarter with the interior visit of the synagogues, including the largest in Europe.
