Private Tours in Budapest

Budapest and its surroundings offer numerous options for great tours. Ask your local guide to organize private tours in Budapest for you, as they know the best routes to all the attractions. When planning is done, put comfy shoes on and explore Budapest.

  • Highlights and hidden gems in Budapest

    Discover Budapest with a local! Take private tours in Budapest and get to know every bits and pieces of the most magnificent sights of the area. Ride the tram 4-6 along the beautiful Grand Boulevard (Körút) to Széll Kálmán Square, and walk up to the Castle District. Take the 120-year-old Millennium underground to the City Park, where you can visit reputable museums on the sides of Heroes’ Square. On your personalized tour you can see everything that you have in mind. Just ask your local guide to include it in the tour!

    Hear more about Hungarians and Budapestians from your guide. Besides visiting the major sights you’ll have a chance to discover some unknown charming spots as well.

  • Shopping tour with a local

    Among all the private tours in Budapest, visiting Markets are one the most interesting things to do. There are many vintage flea markets in Budapest. The queen of the markets is Ecseri Market that is also a historical outlook, a presentation of the last 100 years of Budapest. There are other great ones, like Petőfi Csarnok Flea Market, or Bakancsos Street market.

    They all explain a lot about the culture and people and help you experience the unique atmosphere of the city. Take a market day-trip with your local host and find real treasures, straight from the past.

  • Ruin pubs tours in Budapest by day

    There are ruin bars all over the place in Budapest. Ask your private host to show you around and visit the popular spots during the day. Your host will have a proper overview of the area and they will know the best places to sit in for a meal or coffee. Do not miss the famous Szimpla Kert, or Fogas ház.

    As the city is very lively during daytime, you will find locals relaxing in the gardens, drinking the so-called fröccs, a popular wine drink in Hungary. And if you like a place, go back at night for even more fun.

  • Turkish Spa Tour with coffee stops

    Include a spa tour in your private tours in Budapest. Your guide can show you the best turkish spas in town. Start with Rudas, move to Veli Bej, or Gellért, then finish the day with experiencing the authentic Turkish atmosphere of the old Király Fürdő. It's not a Turkish spa, but Széchenyi Bathhouse is the largest and one of the classiest bath complex in Europe that is worth checking out.

    Take a caffeine load after each one to energize yourself. Visit the Angelika Coffeehouse on the ground floor of Church of St. Ann at Batthyányi, or the reputable Gerbeaud at Vörösmarty Square. Your local guide will surely know the best places.

  • Off the beaten track by a Trabant

    There is a huge, popular park above the city in the Buda hills that you can add to your Budapest private tours, by a Trabant. People used to come up here in the winter to ski. There's the 'Libegő' ski lift that you can still ride and the view from it is breathtaking. Also, from Erzsébet-Tower on the top of the hill, you can take wonderful pictures of Budapest.

    Otherwise, you can take a huge day hike in the forests of János Hill with your guide. You should also check out the Children's Railway, an 11 km long unique railway in the hills, a heritage of the Communist Regime. Interestingly enough, children run this railway - of course, under the supervision of adults.

Budapest in a Day

The tour with Zsofia was an absolute highlight of my stay in Budapest. We started at Heroes-Square, and from there continued through the beautiful city park. Zsofia always took time and explained the sights and culture in a very engaging way. What I especially enjoyed was that she showed us many places I would never have discovered on my own. We also had a break in a traditional café, where we could recharge with some traditional pastry. The tour with Zsofia was perfect! On my next visit to Budapest, I would book her again without hesitation.

Insightful

Our time in Budapest with Tiberiu was wonderful. He not only introduced us to “off the beaten track” food, he also was open and insightful with all our questions about Budapest and Hungarian culture. Instead of the typical tourist food he took us to places with local-delicious specialties. The best food on our trip!
