    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The highlight of our trip

    "We absolutely loved our food tour with Nicholas. He was calm, friendly and so easy to listen to. He spoke really clearly, so everyone could follow along, and somehow managed to keep a group ranging from 25 to 83 completely engaged. Everyone genuinely enjoyed it! He took us to brilliant local spots that we definitely wouldn’t have found on our own, which made the whole experience feel much more authentic. He also had an endless supply of surprising and interesting facts about Hungary, from the food and culture to the history and little things you’d never normally hear about. And as if that wasn’t enough, he even brought us a homemade cake made by his grandmother, which was such a lovely and memorable touch. Great food, hidden gems, loads of interesting stories and a genuinely lovely guide. This was easily one of the highlights of our trip. We’d 100% recommend a tour with Nicholas!"

    Organised, interesting and very full

    "Emoke had planned our tour to perfection. She shared her knowledge of Hungarian history and culture with passion. I think we ate and drank pretty much every Hungarian dish you could imagine with the added bonus that Emoke knew where to get the tastiest samples of everything we tried. We were so full that we didn't need dinner. Whilst Emoke had planned where to take us she was also able to adapt it to suit our interests and tastes. I cannot recommend her highly enough and have also passed on her details to the hotel where we are staying. She is excellent."

    Walking food tour

    "We spent a fascinating few hours with Gabor B on our walking food tour. Along with plenty of fabulous food and great advice on where and what to eat and drink we also heard interesting stories about the history of Hungary which made the trip complete. Gabor was great company, Len and I couldn’t believe how quickly the time passed. We would highly recommend this experience. "

    Exceptional Budapest Experience

    "Nelli’s deep knowledge of Hungary’s food, culture, history, and traditions brought every stop to life in an engaging and approachable way. The goulash, lángos, and aperitifs were all fantastic. I highly recommend Nelli to anyone visiting Hungary—she offers an authentic, enriching experience that goes far beyond a typical food tour. "
