Overview of your Budapest tour:

I only started to discover my family's Jewish heritage when I moved to Budapest for university. I was also one of those typical secretly Jewish Hungarians. But in Budapest, I've met living, active communities, both religious and those who connect with their culture through music, cuisine, theatre, and studies. Let me introduce you to this lively, colorful part of Pest, from the amazing Morish architecture of the largest synagogue in Europe on Dohány Street, through hip cafés and street art, along the former ghetto wall and medieval city wall to the best places to taste Jewish-Hungarian food, kosher or not. We'll talk about comedy and the darkest parts of history, we'll meet ultra-orthodox Chabad and gentrification, all this on at a comfortably paced tour with many possibilities to rest and look into the depth of things, and even for shopping if you'd like to. Please note that the tour is completely customizable to fit your interests best and planned programs. It can be combined with other tours I offer.
