Reviews of Our Budapest Experiences

Ange was a delight and we loved our evening with her tremendously! She is passionate about Budapest and we learned so much about the city and its culture and history. We would highly recommend her.

Agnes was a wonderful local guide, generous with her time and insights about growing up in Budapest. We tasted a number of staples from local restaurants far removed from the tourist spots, ending with a celebratory drink at one of the lesser-known (read: locals actually go there) ruin bars.

Our foody tour with Agnes was excellent. We started at the Great Market Hall with a couple of tastings of things I probably wouldn't have tried without her local knowledge. They were quite tasty. Then she took us around town to a few of her favorite spots for some traditional food and drink. It was fun hearing her stories about growing up with the things that she ordered for us. This is a must do for anyone who has ever watched Somebody Feed Phil. Thank you Agnes!

We had a great experience with our guide, who tailored the tour specifically for us, which was greatly appreciated bc one of my kiddos ended up not feeling great. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and was an all around great guide! Highly recommend!

Angie was AMAZING! Even before we met for the excursion she was extremely helpful as our group of 6 had another tour just before our foodie tour with her and she was kind enough to coordinate things and actually meet us where our first tour ended (saving us time, keeping us from getting lost, and just making it more convenient for us). She was very knowledgeable, congenial, accommodating and made the time together fun and engaging. She was very generous with the number of foodie offerings and the amounts of each for our group. Angie was a delight - interesting information, enlightening stories, fun foodie places and great food all made the tour memorable and unique. Angie loves Budapest and her passion for the city, its people and its food showed. If we are ever in Budapest again I will be sure to look up Angie for any other tours or excursions! Thanks Angie!
