  • Enjoy a few drinks with your host, feast on street food from a pop-up market and browse vintage treasures
  • Get tips and tricks from your local and ask any questions you have about exploring the city - especially about the ruin bars to check out at night

Reviews

    This experience gave me and my boyfriend the opportunity to see thing in Budapest we could not have found on our own. There is loads of art, music, theatre and a whole boheme scene still alive that we were totally unaware of and we found incredibly! Our local host Krisztina gave us the key to connect with this and we also got loads of good tips for our last day in the 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

    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!
