Historical Tour of Budapest in the Evening
Joined 2021
A city is most beautiful in the evening and during the night. This tour is for those among you, who want to experience Budapest during the evening stopping at the most important sites in its history: its ancient Roman ruins, its medieval castle, Gellert Hill for the best view of modern Pest and at the end, the inner city of Pest.

Meeting Point
Ideally along the Grand Boulevard
Grand Boulevard
Pick up is on the Grand Bvd. (Nagykörút) at approx. 19:00. You may chose from several pick-up possibilities, such as Corvin Square, Rakoczi Sq, Blaha Square or Nyugati Railway Station.
Roman Military Amphitheatre
Our history goes all the way back to Rome and even beyond. We stop at one of the most impressive Roman ruins in Budapest and I will tell you all about how Rome expanded its borders as far as the Danube and how Aquincum became the predecessor of Budapest.
Fishermen's Bastion
We stop beneath Buda castle (our only medieval fortification in the city) and take the neo-romanesque stairs up to the Mathias church and walk in the surrounding streets to get a better feeling of what medieval Buda might have looked like and what changes it has undergone during the centuries. This is an ideal spot to take pictures of the Parliament and Pest from above.
Gellert Hill
Our next stop provides the best vantage point to overlook our beautiful capital city and especially the inner city of Pest (the modern center of Budapest). You will hear all about who Gellert was and how the citadel came to be built on the Hill and how Pest became the more important part of the city in the 19th century. On our way down, depending on our time, I may be able to show you a completely hidden gem.
Deak Ferenc Square
Our last stop will be the inner city of Pest and specifically the Jewish Quarter, which is the bustling heart of Budapest and the place where nightlife happens. I will drop you off around Gozsdu Passage, which is the most unique street of this district.
Ending Point
In the Jewish Quarter (around Gozsdu Passage)

About Tour Guide Tiberiu C.
Szia! Hi! Hallo! Ceau!
My name is Tiberiu(s), or Tibi for short, and I am an IT Service Manager who found his passion in tour guiding over 5 years ago.
With late-afternoon and weekend availability (full time as of June), I am more than excited to take you on a mini-journey, including not only the main attractions of the city, but also the lesser-known ones including some tastings. I am also more than happy to adapt the tours to your needs and we may even go outside of the city, if you'd like to, since I own a car. I am also available for one or the other daytrip in or outside of Budapest, just let me know about 1-2 weeks in advance, so I can plan my schedule accordingly.
Before booking though, please contact me online in advance, just to make sure.
"In the end... we only regret the chances we didn't take" (Lewis Caroll)
I want to make memories for people from all over the world! And most important of all, I like to give them an actual taste of our city. You just can't visit Hungary and not try some of our traditional foods (not for veggies or vegans though).
Hope to meet you soon and "Viszlát", as we say in Hungarian!
Reviews
“Excellent choice for a niche tour”
Tiberiu was very knowledge of the town of Szentendre and made his knowledge accessible to our group. He was very precise with his route and made the best of our limited time. Before hand he was also very helpful and communicative. I sincerely recommend Tiberiu.

The Amazing 10 Tastings of Budapest
I invite you to a unique culinary journey in the capital city of Hungary. We may not have a world-famous cuisine like the Italians or the French, but once you taste a Hungarian meal it will stay with you forever. This tour is designed for those with an interest in history and some city highlights coupled with some of the most unforgettable snacks and bites of Hungary: langos, chimney cake, fried sausage, stuffed pancakes, pogacsa (scones) and a shot of palinka/Unicum, just to name a few.
