"My family had a wonderful afternoon with Emoke. She was extremely knowledgeable, chose good, authentic spots, and was great with our kids. She really flexed to fit in our day with other tours. We highly recommend Emoke!"

"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."

"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!"

"We had a group of seven that Nick took on tour in Budapest. We loved his food offerings, his knowledge and love of his city, and he was open and relaxed to so many of the questions we asked! Thanks Nick! And thanks for the great food recommendations!! "

"Nicholas took us around and introduced to a number of different foods and drinks that we never would have tried on our own. He was very personable and informative. "

"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. "

"A wonderful guide, very informative and took us to some places no tourist would find. Some lovely tastings and great company."

"Delightful experience of traditional and new Hungarian foods. Beata did a great job of tailoring the tasting tour to our needs and was very careful to accommodate our food allergies. While we walked, she talked about Hungarian life and the history of the city pointing out various places we could investigate later on our own. Beata was a friendly and knowledgeable guide who loves her city and sharing the food and culture of Hungary. Highly recommend this tour and Beata as a guide."

"Excellent tour from the market to local eateries. Lots of history and discussion of current Hungarian life as well. We felt we’ll take care of and enjoyed every minute. "

"Our Culinary Kickstart Tour: Budapest with Anna was the perfect food introduction to the city. From the very beginning, she was warm, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable but what truly made the experience stand out were the stories she shared along the way. They gave so much depth to each stop and made the tour feel personal rather than scripted. We began at the Great Market Hall, where we had our first bites of traditional snack foods and, with Anna’s help, picked out the best paprika to take home (which would have been overwhelming to do on our own). From there, we hopped on a tram to the Jewish Quarter, which added a local, everyday feel to the experience. Along the way, we enjoyed a delicious lineup of Hungarian flavors — a sausage with mustard, fresh bread, and pickled veggies paired with a Fritz, a traditional lángos that was absolutely worth the hype, and even fruit brandies made from pear and apricot. We ended with a chimney cake to take home, which was the perfect sweet finish. What really stood out was Anna’s adaptability. She was attentive to our pace and flexible with the schedule, making sure the experience felt relaxed and tailored to us. If you’re looking for a way to not only taste Budapest but truly understand it, this tour with Anna is an easy recommendation. It’s the kind of experience that sets the tone for the rest of your trip."
