Customized, insightful tour - I meant to post this review a long time ago, but from the more recent reviews, it's clear that people are still appreciating the personal touch that we received when we booked with Budapest Locals. Our tour guide, Kinga, was outstanding - very knowledgeable, showed us how to get around using the tram system, and guided us to the key highlights on both sides of the city. We saw and learned so much, and appreciated her warmth and insights very much.

Great tour to get an overview of the sights of Budapest - Anita was a great tour guide. She gave us a great history of Hungary as we showed us some of the sights of Budapest. She was able to adjust the tour to our interests and was able to adjust the itinerary as we went. She gave us a great overview of Budapest, and gave us tips when we wanted to go back on subsequent days to spend more time at some of our favorite sites. She also had great bar/restaurant recommendations. We are so glad we had Anita help us get oriented in Budapest. I highly recommend Anita and Budapest local.

Like having a local friend - Anita's tour came strongly recommended by my parents and my uncle, who had taken the Budapest Overview tour before. They were so right! It felt like from the moment we landed in Budapest we had a longtime family friend to show us around and give us tips. Anita customized the tour based on our interests and background, shared TONS of personalized recommendations, and even checked in with us throughout the week to see how we were doing and answer any questions.

Fabulous - Anita was a spectacular guide, very fun and knowledgeable. Budapest has so much to offer and so much to see and learn about. Anita showed us some highlights and mapped out other places for us to explore on our own. And the streudel!!! YUM!

Excellent knowledgeable guide, great tour - Excellent tour, Anita was so knowledgeable, we got to see everything we wanted to, and more. The strudel stop was delicious too!

Fabulous city tour - Our guide, Anita was very knowledgeable, kind, and thoughtful. She asked us at the beginning everything that we wanted to be sure to see, and she answered all of our question s. Her knowledge of the city was amazing. She was very pleasant to converse with. She took us for coffee and strudel halfway through the tours to rest. Excellent!

Excellent Family Tour with Little Kids - One of the best tour experiences we’ve ever had anywhere. Petra was incredibly brilliant and super easy to talk to/plan with. We had 3 kids with us + the grandparents. It went flawlessly. Our kids loved Petra… I have many photos of her holding their hands walking through Budapest. 100% recommend.

Fun and Enriching Experience! - Superb tour and culture exchange! Grateful for this tour company and their professionalism. We worked with Anita to arrange and organize our private 3 hour tour. Our brilliant and convivial guide, Petra, adapted the tour to our interests. It was a beautiful mix of Hungarian history, culture, and fun! This tour company was recommended to me by a work colleague and I am so glad to have utilized their tour services. The experience enriched my trip and post-trip, as I was empowered with a vast array of Hungarian and Budapest knowledge to impart to work colleagues, friends, and family. Köszönöm Szépen Anita, Petra and your company Budapest Locals.

Excellent Service, Excellent Tour - We were on a 5 week tour of major European cities and booked tours (some group, some private) at each location. Our entire experience with Budapest Locals was one of our top tours on this journey. It starts with great communication from Anita. We learned on this adventure that tour companies that don’t communicate with you before your experience consistently end up giving sub-par tours. Anita made sure to touch base before the tour reminding us of what to expect, when/where to meet which made for a seamless experience. Our guide, Petra, was one of our favorite guides we had in Europe. She met us at our hotel and as we were starting our tour, we walked past a building next to our hotel that had a restaurant in it that we hadn’t noticed. She said she highly recommended it, asked if we’d like to eat there after our day of touring and then went in and made a reservation for us. This restaurant was so good, we went back for a second meal (the only time we did so in all 5 weeks of traveling). And the day just kept getting better from there. We saw so much, Petra gave us great information on not just the sites we were seeing, but wherever the conversation and our interests about Budapest went. We saw far more than we thought we could cover in 4 hours and she gave us great recommendations for the rest of our days In Budapest. We cannot recommend this tour company highly enough and would re-book in a heartbeat if we are ever lucky enough to find ourselves back in beautiful Budapest.

Wonderful tour - Anita was a pleasure to work with. She created a full-day tour of Budapest that met our needs completley. Andi was our guide and she could not have been better. She provided local information not found in guidebooks. The overall package included lunch at a restaurant along our route. I highly recommend this tour operator.
