“Simply a Great Day!”
Thank you Gabor for a most enjoyable and interesting day. We thoroughly enjoyed your extensive knowledge of Hungarian history, and for making our visit to the 3 cities a great memory. Thank you for arranging the wine tasting in Esztergom - what a great addition to our day. We highly recommend Gabor for those wishing to visit Esztergom, Visegrad and Szentendre, or any other places in Hungary. Gabor is personable, speaks several languages, and is focused on ensuring his guests have a great time. We also had a small issue of a personal nature and Gabor was able to help us out with it as well. We are extremely grateful to him for going above and beyond to help us. We look forward to a return visit in the future to Hungary and to reuniting with Gabor for more adventures. Thank you Gabor!

Gabor D.
Thank you Mei ! It was truly a pleasure spending the day with you and Bruce. The wine tasting in Esztergom was a very good idea together with Dobogókő. Bruce should definitely bring his father with him next time to Hungary! I think the two of them still have a few things to claim back from Hungary. It would be my pleasure to take the hole family on another adventure and discover even more of the country.

“Trip to Eger”
Gabor was an amazing person who's guided us with a lot of care and passion. It was absolutely the best one-day trip we have ever had. As it was an extremely hot day, he adjusted the day's activities to meet our needs. We highly recommend planning a day with Gabor.

“A Wonderful Time Discovering my Hungarian Ancestors!”
My goal in visiting Hungary was to conduct ancestry research, and I was fortunate to have chosen Gabor as my guide. I was able to correspond with him easily through the GoWithGuide website, and he responded to my messages almost immediately. Ancestry research is time-consuming, and Gabor undertook considerable preparation before I arrived in Hungary, exceeding my expectations. He took the initiative to contact various archive offices in advance, arranging meetings and access to archival documents on my behalf. It quickly became clear that Gabor is far more than a guide; he is also an excellent project manager! During my time in Hungary, he organised a well-planned yet flexible itinerary that included archive offices, museums, and registry offices. When meeting with archivists in the towns of Komárom and Tatabánya, where my ancestors had lived, I relied on Gabor to explain my situation in Hungarian and translate their replies. Gabor is professional, hardworking, and absolutely dedicated to helping his clients achieve their goals. He consistently went above and beyond to help me locate records relating to my ancestors. Thanks to his efforts, I now have a much more complete picture of my family tree than I ever expected to achieve. Gabor was genuinely interested in obtaining the best possible outcome for me and creating a truly memorable experience—one that I will never forget. His in-depth knowledge of Hungarian history gave me a deeper appreciation of Hungary and its people. I highly recommend Gabor to anyone considering ancestry or family-history research in Hungary. His expertise, dedication, and professionalism made my trip both productive and rewarding.

Gabor D.
Dear Sylvia, Thank you so much for your kind words. It was a real pleasure to help you explore your family history and be part of this meaningful journey.
