Balazs is one of the best guides we have ever met. We booked a food tour, but once he understood we were also interested in history and music, he went above and beyond to give us a full day’s tour of Budapest. He is knowledgeable about the history of every landmark, has an excellent sense of humor, and is a wonderful ambassador for his city. We thoroughly enjoyed his company and plan to come back to Budapest for a longer trip in the future!

Balazs was a great guide. We covered lots of sites, the history and had plenty of steps to shelter from the sun. He also set me up perfectly for the rest of my stay, telling me about other places to visit and how to get there. Faultless.

Our guide was so professional and personal at the same time. saw just what we wanted to and a few unexpected surprises as well. Overall very well done and an experience we'd do again!

Tour was great. Balazs showed us Budapest through his eyes. We not only saw what we wanted to see, but got a native’s perspective on the history & events that helped shape many of those highlights.
