Discover a behind-the-scenes look at Budapest’s art culture on this walking tour. Explore the architecture, graffiti, and street art with a local guide for a more intimate experience of this vibrant capital city. Along the way, make additional stops at cool coffee shops, street art galleries, and bars and take a jaunt through the Jewish Quarter to spot hidden synagogues.

• Introduction to Budapest’s established and expanding alternative culture
• Visit a local artist’s studio and gallery
• Learn about Budapest’s street art and graffiti scene
• Explore districts rarely visited by tourists

Shy away from the usual tourist stops on this walking experience with a local guide, and get an inside look at Budapest’s alternative culture. First scout out the synagogues in the Jewish Quarter, hidden slightly from view. Next, head to some of Budapest’s most impressive street art galleries to immerse yourself in the underground art scene, before making a quick stop at a cool coffeehouse (own expense) and photo gallery. Then travel to the place where the underground scene started, the former working-class districts that have since become the pulse of arts and culture. Learn the stories of how the art world kept alive under communist leadership. Please note: In an effort to visit the most up-to-date and exciting artistic venues, the itinerary details are subject to change.
