How your day could unfold
A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
You'll experience the warm and welcoming Hungarian way of family life with your local host and your clan by your side as you explore beautiful Budapest - a city known for its hospitality.
You may be worried about how long attractions like the Hungarian Parliament Building will hold the attention of the kids before they beg to go somewhere else but fear not - there are scores of attractions around town that will keep everyone happy.
There are interactive museums to captivate young minds but if you are looking for something a little more outdoorsy, you could always grab bikes and cycle around Margaret Island, hike up Gellért Hill, or explore Buda Castle and its underground Labyrinth of caves under Buda Castle - always a hit with the kids (and adults!).
And if little legs get tired you can always visit a park or splash around in one of the city’s outdoor baths. When tummies start rumbling, your host will be able to recommend the best family-friendly spots for you to head to for the tribe to refuel. However, you choose to spend your day, you'll get to know the family-friendly side of Budapest with your host.

Balazs was terrific! A wealth of information and very personable. He was patient with our myriad of questions and painted an incredible, easy to understand history of Hungary with a broad brush that ties everything together.

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.
