Krisztian Wimmer is an excellent tour guide. Born and loves locally to Budapest he was fullnof historical knowledge & was so much fun to spend an afternoon with. We cant recommend him highly enough. Thank you Krisztian for all of your knowledge, company and fun spirit. Hope we can come back & see you again soon!

Kristzian met us at our hotel. After asking us what we were interested in doing, he decided that a tour of the Food Market was what we would do. As we walked to the market, he told us about the history of the area we were in. At the market, we toured the first floor filled with local foods and alcohol. On the second floor, we decided to try some traditional Hungarian dishes that were very good. We left the market and traveled by public transportation to a pastry shop where we had pastry and lemonade. We concluded the tour with Kristzian sharing additional information about his city.

We had a very full and informative 4 hours. Krisztian tailored our tour to what we asked to see in more detail. It was a very hot day so he was sensitive to keeping the tour at a reasonable pace and using shade where possible.
