Experience Budapest
Beyond the Guidebooks

Belezs was fantastic! We thoroughly enjoyed our time with him.

Our guide, Balazs, was absolutely amazing! If I could rate this even higher than a ten, I would rate it a 20++++. He met us in the lobby of our hotel and we began our tour of Budapest. Personalization was perfect. We wanted our tour to include information about local culture and he delivered. When we ask ourselves "what are the best parts of our river cruise through Hungary, Austria and Germany" this personalized tour of Budapest always comes in at #1

We had a wonderful tour with a very professional and experienced guide. Balazs our guide did an excellent job of showing us his city. We visited many of the main sights and gained a good insight and feel of this very beautiful city.

A busy morning but very informative and we packed in many important & interesting sights of wonderful Budapest. The combination of walking, tram & train was great as we got to experience many areas around the city. We had a great morning and highly recommend Balazs as a guide .... especially to history buffs

Richard set a pace that was comfortable for us. We started with the Jewish corner then did a large circle back to our hotel. He also took us to a great street that had many Hungarian food options. We saw the many highlights that are part of the Pest side of Budapest. He gave us great suggestions for seeing the other side.

Every place we visited had so much history and our tour guide, Richard, shared such valuable information about each one. It was a great experience to be guided by a local and we highly recommend this walking tour to learn about the highlights so you can then explore based on your interests. The visit to the market and the Parliament were my favorites.

Richard was flexible, informative, and entertaining as he lead eight of us on a 4 hour private tour. We had proposed an ambitious tour through the Jewish Quarters to City Park and back. However, as we approached City Park and began to flag, he adjusted our plan so that instead of walking back to the hotel we took the underground, which he had told use we should experience, back to city center and closer to our Hotel. Our party peppered Richard with questions and discussions about how Budapest compared to other cities, the origins of the Hungarian language and the Ottoman influences on Budapest. As a history teacher Richard kept the conversation going with interesting insights. We had a physicist amongst use who was ecstatic to hear that Edward Teller went to High School nearby and oohed and awed over the plague on the school listing other Noble laureate scientists who attended the school. Richard knew all the names and the history of the school and scientists. As usual with Viator, arranging the tour, communicating with Richard before hand to customize the tour and meeting up with and being dropped off at the hotel went smoothly and easily.

Great tour,, tried a wide range of foods and Kristian showed us neighborhoods we wouldn't otherwise have seen.

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.

We thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon with Lorinc. He was so knowledgeable about the history of Hungary, and thoroughly engaging throughout our afternoon. He made sure that he provided an experience that we wanted and visited spots and tasted foods that were of the most interest to us in a leisurely and unhurried manner. We would wholeheartedly recommend this experience.

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!

This was a well-led walk through some of Budapest’s lively neighborhoods. Guide Agnes quickly adapted her plans to match up with my interests, making it a very personalized experience. We sampled food, discussed local art, culture and history, and all in a relaxed way. This is a great way to experience a city for the first time.

I was pleased with how quickly Agnes got acquainted with me so she could craft a unique and personally valuable tour of essential highlights —not just with food but with visual arts, historical background and things unique to Budapest. It was a relaxing and tasty way to experience a lot of the city in a short time.

Our tour was personalized and very informative. She discussed cultural and historical significance of the food we tried. I would definitely recommend her tour to anyone visiting Budapest.

We had an amazing time being guided by Agnes (we called her St Agnes because she is just angelic!). Her knowledge on the city, the history, art, culture and fabulous recommendations made our Budapest stay perfect. Well Done City Unscripted for having such a wonderful staff member that cares about the clients interest and well being during the tour. Thank You Agnes!

He really cared what we wanted to say. He was very knowledgeable on the history of Budapest and my husband really enjoyed that. If you’re in Budapest, I would highly recommend you do it tour with Sandro.

Sandor was a great walking tour guide. He was accommodating with my itinerary and provided helpful tips and routes for the day.

We literally only had 5 hours so rather than wonder round on our own not really know where we were going or looking at we decided to do the tour. So glad we did. We got to see what we needed, understood what it was, got to ask questions and chat about other things and best of all it was just us, no large groups of others. Would definitely recommend. Our guide Sándor was very knowledgeable.

Very nice tour and he took us to a fantastic strudel shop!

I had the pleasure of having Angie as our tour guide in Budapest, and she was absolutely fantastic! Not only did she share fascinating insights into the city’s rich history, but she also took us to some hidden gems that we would have never discovered on our own. Her passion for Budapest was contagious, and her knowledge truly made the experience special. I highly recommend Angie for anyone looking to explore Budapest – you won’t be disappointed!

We had an amazing experience with our guide, Ange, during our trip to Budapest! Ange took us to some incredible spots, showcasing not only the popular attractions but also hidden gems off the beaten path. Her deep knowledge of the city's rich history truly brought Budapest to life, offering insights we would never have learned otherwise. She made sure the tour was both engaging and informative, with a personal touch that made the day even more enjoyable. We highly recommend Ange for anyone looking to explore Budapest.

Angie was just great! She really took her time with our family and had wonderful places for us to visit that were not the typical touristy places. She gave us great insight into the food and culture of Budapest. We all would highly recommend her. It was a pleasure to meet you, thank you!

Maria was a fantastic host, very friendly and considerate and very accommodating. She was really eager to show us as much as possible, and also happy to go at our own pace and ready to help us with anything we needed. Like having an old friend in the city to take you around!

Attila was a very good guide. He managed the tour to our requests and we saw some "off the beaten path" areas that really made the day !!
