Anna
Day 1 in Budapest we did this with Daniel, was amazing! He gave us so much history of the city & was such a nice guy. He took us round everything on our own to do list we knew we had to see. Also emailed me a list of recommendation local restaurants & other places to see. Really gave us our bearings for walking around, I’d thoroughly recommend this.

Excellent - From Start To Finish. Such informative tour, lovely hot drink supplied on a crisp cold day, took photos of me as I’m a lone traveller which I appreciated. Way better than commercial tours, makes it more personal and a great experience around Budapest.

With the individually designed city tour you get a good insight into the various sights and can then decide which places you would like to visit again. Our guide - Agnes - really impressed us with her immense knowledge of the city and its history. We really enjoyed the tour with her. At this point, many thanks again!

Everything was perfect. We really liked the guide, Tamas, who gave us a summary of Hungarian history and was very attentive and helpful throughout. He showed great knowledge of history and had an excellent memory. As well as being a great guide, he was also very good company. It was a very interesting tour. Not to be missed!

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it easy to contact the tour operator for booking inquiries?

Yes, it is easy to get in touch with us. You can contact us by phone or through the contact information provided on our page. We are always happy to answer your questions and help you plan your memorable day in Budapest.

Are private tour guides worth it?

Private tour guides offer personalized, in-depth insights and flexible itineraries tailored to your interests. They provide convenience and social interaction that can greatly enrich your experience. However, if you prefer exploring at your own pace and saving money, independent sightseeing might suit you better.

How much do you tip a tour guide in Budapest?

Tipping around 10 percent of the tour cost is standard and appreciated by guides in Budapest, whether for private, multi-day, or walking tours. Even for free tours, it’s customary to leave a tip of about 5-10 euros per person to acknowledge the guide’s effort.

What are the disadvantages of private tours?

The main downside is the higher cost compared to group tours. However, private tours let you customize your itinerary, avoiding unwanted activities and providing a more relaxed, tailored experience without compromises.

How much does it cost to hire a tour guide?

Private guides in Budapest typically charge between $100 and $300 for a half-day tour. Since fees are often per group rather than per person, costs become more affordable when shared among travelers. Group tours and sightseeing buses are budget-friendly alternatives.

Why are private tours so expensive?

Private tours often include luxury transport, skip-the-line access, and a personalized pace, eliminating the stress of navigating unfamiliar areas or crowded public transport. This exclusivity and convenience contribute to the higher price.

What is a private guided tour?

A private guided tour is a customized experience tailored to your group's specific interests and schedule, providing exclusive access, personalized commentary, and flexible timing.

How much do you tip a free tour guide in Budapest?

A recommended tip for free tour guides is between 5 and 10 euros per person (about 2000–3800 Hungarian Forints), reflecting appreciation for their effort despite no upfront cost.

Which district in Budapest is best for tourists?

The 5th district (Belváros) is ideal for first-time visitors, offering easy access to Danube-side sights and historic landmarks. The Palace District nearby is elegant and quieter, while the Jewish Quarter is vibrant, known for its restaurants, ruin pubs, and nightlife.
