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

If you ask a Hungarian who is their favorite king, you would probably get the answer King Matthias. Like many of us, I was also curious of the dark Middle Ages from a very young age, and it became even more engaging when I learnt, it was not even that dark always in Hungary, but more like a Golden Age in our country. The peak of my happines is that now I have the chance to invite you on this unforgettable program and share with you the exciting stories of the era of kings, queens and knights. The Danube Bend is at North from Budapest, a spectacular natural area with old ruins and historical attractions. The three cities we visit on this tour are Esztergom, Visegrád and Szentendre. A religious, a royal and an artistic center of Hungary. If you thought Game of Thrones was a good show, but even if you are not familiar with it, you will be definitely fascinated by the beautiful sights and the captivating stories of the Hungarian Middle Ages connected to them.

Who can - for nine hours, and with six people - remain engaged, interesting, informative, and humourous? If you want to know, just ask Petra because that is what we experienced today with her. Thank you Petra for a wonderful day in Budapest. Highly recommend Petra

Wonderful experience all around. The passion and pride Petra extols for her country makes it easy to fall in love with Hungary and the Hungarian people. We learned so much about Hungarian history and culture in such a short amount of time. We enjoyed all the stops and the restaurant choice.

My family really had a great time with Petra. We wish we'd had even more time to spend with her. Petra was very patient and simply charming to be with. Petra was very honest and shared many stories about Budapest's history and politics. We would be very pleased to tour with Petra again and would recommend her without a moment's hesitation.
