Meeting Point
We Meet at your Hotel
- After booking this Trip, you simply let me know, where you are staying and we are going to meet at the hotel Lobby.
Historic Metro #1
We will take the very old and Historic Underground #1. This is not simply a ride...this is a Blast to the Past, as you are going to cruise on one of the oldest Undergrounds ever! You'll see the jaw dropping stations and their authentic design, which lets you get a glimpse of the 17-18th century style.
Heroes Square
We will arrive at this most famous Monument, which showcases the entire Hungarian History and Culture. I will give you all the stories and legends behind it...not the ones you find on wikipedia ;)
Artist Coffee
It's still morning...and how can we have a good morning without a good Coffee at one of the oldest Coffe houses just next to the Opera house and the House of Ballett (hence the name Artist coffee). Original Building from the 18th century so they had time to perfect their coffee brewery and cake making skills :)
Jewish Quarter
After a short rest we are going to stroll trough the historical Jewish Quarter, where we find old Buildings (remnants of the past) where we still see original Bulletholes from second world war and or 1956 revolutionary war.
We are also gonna spot several of the giant Murals on the side of old derelict buildings.
Ruin Bar (Szimpla Kert) & Karavan food garden
During our walk in the Jewish quarter we are going to visit some of the iconic places like the ruin bar of Simple Garden (szimplakert) and also have the oppurtunity to grab a quick and authentic bite at the stylish Karavan food-market.
Great Market Hall
We are going to visit a very authentic place, which resembles an old railway station from the 18th century, but the twist is, that it is actually a giant market hall.
Shoes on the Danube / Parliament
We are going to cruise with the most scenic tram #2 alongside the Danube and arrive at the shoes on the danube, where I can explain zou the tragic history behind it. After that you can marvel at the Parliament up close.
Buda Castle district
Lastly we are going to wander through the Castle district, where I can explain you the History of Hungary and have magnificent views of the city.
Fisherman's Bastions / Mathias Church
During our walk through the Buda Castle Distict we will visit all of these interesting sights and I can explain you the interesting folk-stories behind it.
Labyrints underneath the Castle
If you still have some power left in you, we will submerge into the mysterious dark underworld of the labyrinths, which are just below our feets as we wander through the Castle District. Definately worth a visit :) .
Ending Point
We finish the tour back at your Hotel

About Tour Guide Viktor K.
The two biggest problems in my life are, that I was born too soon to become a space-cowboy and too late to become a roman legionary soldier. Since Tour guiding was the closest profession to both of these above mentioned things, I became one.
Although I finished the university as a communications expert and journalist in Hungary, it seems they did not prefer my honesty, so I didn't have too many prospects in that field. Without a clue of what to do next, I embarked on a journey to find some answers. I soon found my ambition in Tour-guiding and ended up working on a cruise ship, then as a freelancer tour-guide, and then as an adventure tour-guide in Norway.
I've been working in the tourism industry since 2012 and ever since, it''was my dream to create an authentic company of my own and to show the beautiful things of my home country.
My travels took me to more then 40+ countries. [And I still have both of my kidneys]
Sadly during my journeys, I have discovered that out of 100 companies 99 are simply tourist traps, who scam their customers with some fake "experience". But I also saw, that the authentic and quality tour operators are the longest lasting companies with 20+ years. I aspire to become like that 1 in 100 companies. I believe in win-win situations.
I'm a social guy. I like to be around people and to show them around. I like to have deep and honest conversations about things and I love to meet some truly amazing guests. There is nothing that you cannot talk about with me. I like this job so much, that I would even do this job for free, but since I cannot buy food with respect, love, or honesty, I do need something more tangible.
Anyways…why are you wasting your time reading about me? Go book a tour and we will have all the time in the world to get to know each other and this beautiful Country.
