Fun and fascinating tour!

Nicholas was an extraordinary tour guide who made Budapest history and culture come alive! Nicholas provided valuable context for the historic sites, food, and modern culture of Hungary. He could summarize key events quickly and succinctly, while still diving deeply into details where we had questions. He was warm, friendly, and thoughtful. 10/10!!!

Amazing experience!

Nelli is awesome! She is very professional, friendly, and provides a relaxed environment to enjoy the local food. She is on friendly terms with all the local vendors, and her knowledge and explanations makes for a wonderful and educational experience. She is also very good at making adjustments for food restrictions/allergies/intolerances. 100% recommend for anyone to book with her!!

Great food, even better company! Nick took us to several local spots, and the dishes were amazing. But what stood out most was his warmth, humor, and insight. Highly recommend!
