About Tour Guide Horváth Á.
Born and raised in Budapest, I’m a 36 year old licensed professional tour guide, who lives and breathes the city every day! I started guiding 7 years ago as a passionate traveler and Budapest local myself, I was eager to share my love and enthusiasm about this very special European city.Being an adventurer myself , I’ve lived in 5 different cities around Europe and Asia and I also travel a lot in my free-time, so I know exactly how it feels to arrive in a city as a complete stranger, wanting to learn and soak it all up! I can completely customize the tour according to your needs and interests and I am ready to answer any question you might have from politics through local life to history and architecture. I used to work as a gastronomy journalist, so in case you’re a foodie, I’m your person as well!:) I have been guiding private tours for 7 years daily, but I’m still very passionate and excited about meeting people from all over the world every day and getting to know them while showing them my culture - so you can rest assured sure we’ll say goodbye as friends at the end of the tour!:)
