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.

Veronika was an excellent guide. She is very knowledgeable about all things related to her country and Budapest. Especially the history and culture. Good efficient use of our time. Energetic and clear in her communication in English. We would definitely recommend her and use her again. We took the option of using public transportation and she made that easy and enjoyable.

Veronika is extremely knowledgeable about Budapest. She is flexible on what your group would prefer. We took a couple of other tours during our stay or asked guidance from others and Veronika was spot on with her advice comparatively.

Excellent tour. Five star all the way. Veronika’s knowledge was impressive. She listened to our thoughts and then curated an amazing tour. She picked a great location for a quick break in the middle of the tour. Very enjoyable afternoon.

Veronika was simply terrific. Very knowledgeable about Budapest and the history of Hungary. We had seen part of the city on a bus tour from our river cruise, so she tailored our walk to see parts of the city we had not previously seen. In addition, she speaks perfect English and has a delightful personality. Highly recommend!

A wonderful day on Budapest! Veronika was a prefect guide and host. She was charming, incredibly knowledgeable and fun. It felt less Like a tour and more like a good friend showing you around her city! I'd highly recommend, if 6 stars were available she'd get them.
