We highly recommend booking a private tour! Not only does your tour guide have extensive knowledge of the history and culture of the city, but you’ll now have a contact on the ground who can provide information and insights that you just won’t find in travel guides or brochures. Our tour guide, Angies was terrific! She not only knows the city but loves this city! We learned so much about Budapest from her! And she was a joy to be with! I highly recommend this tour!

My walking tour with Agnes exceeded my expectations. It was a great balance between history, culture, and her own experiences, which is what I indicated my preference was. She was thoughtful about making the most of my time because I was only in Budapest for one day. Overall, it was a great introduction to the city and I was able to see and experience more than I ever could have on my own. I would absolutely recommend Agnes to anyone looking for a personalized tour!
