Before booking, please read the whole description and the disclaimer at the end.


Welcome to Budapest!


 "The Pearl of the Danube" is a unique metropolis with the lush hills and forests of Buda, Pest with its inviting bars, diverse Jewish quarter, and vibrant nightlife, as well as the marvelous bridges connecting the two banks.
 If you come with me, you will have an unforgettable experience as we explore the history of Budapest in a small group together, from the first steps of the ancestors of Hungarians, the Mongolian and the Ottoman occupation, the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, the two world wars, decades of communism, and to the present day, while marveling at the city's most beautiful attractions.

 Alongside the essential and magnificent stops, I will also share personal stories about my family, the adventures of my ancestors during communism, and the two world wars.

 I will show you hidden wonders known only to locals as well, the things that colour our everyday lives.

 The tour covers Budapest's most important sights and attractions , such as:

  • Historical city center
  • Millennium Underground
  • St Stephen's Basilica
  • Statues of Budapest
  • Liberty Square
  • Parliament
  • Central Market Hall
  • Margaret Island
  • Shoes on the Danube Bank
  • Synagogue
  • Chain Bridge
  • Thermal Baths
  • Gellert Hill
  • Castle District


 As someone who engages in writing, human stories are particularly important to me. Therefore, besides the most exciting turning points in history, I strive to present human destinies in the storms of centuries. As a playwright, I will reveal Budapest's artistic side to you as well. As a screenwriter, I will also involve you in the surprisingly deep connection between Hollywood and Budapest , as you will have the chance to meet several real stars on my tour. You will also get to know some seriously fun facts !

 During the tour, while conveying historical and cultural knowledge, I will tell you about my favorite hangouts , and recommend great restaurants and pubs . I will share with you what I believe is worth doing in Budapest and what is not, where to wander off the well-known tourist path if you are truly curious about life in Pest.

Meeting point: in front of St. Stephen's Basilica. Look for the turquoise umbrella!

We will finish the tour near the Chain Bridge.

‼️🤔 Please be aware before booking my tour: This is a history and art-oriented tour that offers in depth insights into Hungarian history, including past and current conflicts as well as political issues. We’ll explore these and in addition, Hungarian theatre, movies, fine and contemporary art, so be prepared: my tour is longer than any other free walking tour in Budapest.

If you prefer a shorter, more mainstream/casual free walking tour, GuruWalk offers several options. My tour typically lasts at least 3 hours and 15 minutes, or can extend even longer depending on how many questions you have, as I strive to make the experience as interactive and wholesome as possible.

If you are looking for a comprehensive tour that covers art, architecture, and the complete history of Budapest and Hungary, both past and present, then this is the free walking tour for you.

Do you know that most of the Jews deported to Auschwitz were Hungarians?


Discover with us who was the Arrow Cross Party and the liberation of the city at the hands of the Red Army.

In this tour you will get to know the Holocaust process in Hungary, but also about the righteous among the nations: those heroes who “rowed against the current of hostility and indifference against the Jewish People.

The space in which this tour takes place is one of the most traditional neighborhoods in Budapest, Erzsébetváros, also known as the Jewish Quarter. In this neighborhood is where the main synagogues are concentrated, and with your visit you will have the opportunity to learn to recognize the different branches of Judaism. Another feature of this neighborhood is for being the epicenter of nightlife.

While walking its streets we will find endless restaurants and bars, therefore, we cannot stop talking about Khoser food and the main dishes of Jewish-Hungarian food, although the bars of ruins mark the pulse of the neighborhood. We will talk about their origin and we will say goodbye at one of its most famous bars.
