"Nelli is awesome! She is very professional, friendly, and provides a relaxed environment to enjoy the local food. She is on friendly terms with all the local vendors, and her knowledge and explanations makes for a wonderful and educational experience. She is also very good at making adjustments for food restrictions/allergies/intolerances. 100% recommend for anyone to book with her!!"
"The central market was money and it just kept getting better. Beata (aka B) was knowledgeable , efficient, and a great host. We got a great taste of Budapest w many recs for other activities as well-just wish our stay was longer!
Thx B! "
"Great food, even better company! Nick took us to several local spots, and the dishes were amazing. But what stood out most was his warmth, humor, and insight. Highly recommend!"
"Anna was an excellent host. This was a great introduction to Budapest and its culture. The food stops were excellent and Anna really took the time to explain about the food we ate and why it is so important in Budapest. Apart from this Anna was brilliant in getting us accustomed to life in Budapest and Hungary generally, full of information and eager to share it. She also gave out some excellent recommendations for us to explore during our time here which have all proven to be winners. Grab Anna and take on this tour early in your stay here."
"We had the most wonderful afternoon with Andras, eating our way around Budapest. Andras was the perfect choice for us - we have an 18 year-old fascinated with history and politics so Andras’ knowledge and expertise was just what we’d hoped for. He made us feel like we were just friends he was showing around his city, and we were more than happy to be guided by him. Andras took us to the best spots and we loved every one - he even managed to get a picky 13 year old to try everything (almost). Thank you Andras! "
"We had such a great evening with Beata! She was so informative and fun plus she introduced us to so many delicious Hungarian dishes and beverages. We enjoyed our time with her so much!!"
"If you're a food lover and looking to dive deep into Budapest’s culinary scene, Nelli’s 10 Tastings of Budapest tour is an absolute must-do! From the moment we met her, it was clear that Nelli is not just a guide but a passionate local with a deep love for the city’s food culture. This tour was a delicious blend of local flavors, hidden gems, and fascinating insights into Hungarian culinary traditions. Nelli's tour is an immersive experience that lets you see, taste, and understand the heart of Budapest’s food culture. Whether you're a seasoned foodie or just someone who loves to try new things, this tour will leave you with a deeper appreciation for the rich culinary traditions of Hungary. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Budapest—you’ll walk away with a full belly and a newfound love for Hungarian cuisine. Thanks, Nelli, for such a memorable and delicious experience!"

Excellent Intro to Budapest
"My mother and I booked a tour with Zsofia our first afternoon in Budapest. We loved all of our stops and the wonderful overview of the city. Zsofia gave us fantastic recommendations for the rest of our stay and we went back to central market the next day to have a little more sausage and cabbage strudel :) Cannot recommend enough."
"Tibi was an excellent guide. My original guide got sick and had to cancel, I was able to book Tibi for a food tasting in the Jewish area last minute. He worked with my schedule and we had a lovely time wondering around, eating and learning about this historical area of Budapest. I would highly recommend him and would book with him again the next time my travels take me to this beautiful city. "
