I am a Tour Guide
Hello there! I'm Lőrinc, your friendly Budapest host, and I'm all about kindness, warmth, and a dash of adventure. What captivates me most about this enchanting city are the cozy vibes of its small streets and squares – stepping into the past amidst magnificent architecture and the city's unique natural charm. As an avid explorer, I find joy in discovering hidden gems and meandering through parks, letting the alleys unravel their tales. My deep connection with Budapest goes beyond the surface; I'm your go-to guy for a journey through the city's rich history and Hungary's vibrant culture. With a global perspective on history and cultures, I love sharing intriguing parallels between Hungary and other lands. Let's make your Budapest experience memorable – together!
We loved our experience in Budapest with Lorinc! We wanted to see parts of the city that we would otherwise miss and he took us to the city park, which was mentioned briefly in our Lonely Planet Guide, so we really would not have considered going. Our kids LOVED the playground there, it really is one of the best playgrounds we've ever been to. And Lorinc was super knowledgeable about the history of Budapest and gave us a lot of context which helped us understand the city much better. It was also super interesting to hear him talk about his life there. We were also so surprised that he spoke fluent Japanese, so we had some chats in Japanese too, so that made us connect with him even more. It was so obvious that see that Lorinc loves Budapest and we really enjoyed spending the morning with him. His recommendations for a secret teahouse and the best restaurant we ate at were priceless! If you visit Budpest, make sure to ask for Lorinc.

In very broad strokes, I had a general understanding of Hungary's history. But, since this was our first visit to Budapest, I wanted a crash course on Hungarian history, culture and politics. Our tour guide Lőrinc was the perfect man for the task. He had checked in with us prior to the tour and knew of our interests. So, he crafted a special tour for us that focused on the ancient, Medieval and modern history of Hungary. Absolutely fascinating! I don't remember the names of the founding tribes or the early kings of Hungary (other than the first Christian King, Saint Stephen), but I can't wait to get home and learn more about Hungary and its people. Thank you Lőrinc for an incredible tour!
