Lovely private custom tour of Budapest by Car - We are a family of 4 from London and visited Vienna, Budapest and Prague in August 2025. We went on a private tour of Budapest with Budapest Locals guide Anita. Anita and our car driver were both very personable, flexible and helpful. Anita communicated proactively prior to the trip. She picked us up from the train station, showed us around the must see locations in Budapest, shared some great stories and history, took pictures for us and dropped us back at the station. Anita was friendly, respectful and accommodating especially towards an elderly member of our group. We had a lovely time, thanks to Anita. I will happily recommend Anita and Budapest Locals to anyone wanting to see Budapest.

Fabulous 3 day tour - My mom (77) and I just spent 3 days with Eszter, who was amazing. She planned every part of the tour taking my mom’s physical limitations into consideration. She was incredibly knowledgeable and taught us more than we could imagine. She also made excellent dining recommendations and would get us situated at the restaurants at the end of each tour day. I cannot thank Eszter enough for making this a memorable trip for us.
