Description

As our planet spins on its axis at about 1,670 km/h, and as we sit some 4.2 light-years from the star Proxima Centauri, we get to explore one particularly fascinating point of the universe- the place called Budapest.

If you join me, you'll see the remarkable St. Stephen's Basilica and the astonishing Parliament.

You'll wonder at the Art Nouveau masterpieces.

You'll hear the heartbreaking story of the Shoes Memorial.

Budapest has so much to offer, and I am here to reveal its secrets and teach you everything you need to have a perfect stay. I hope to see you soon!

A special tour

From the beginning, Andor was really passionate about explaining everything on the tour. We learned a lot of new things that we definitely would have missed without him, such as various historical facts, buildings and the stories behind them. He is a really cool and knowledgeable guy! He made us feel comfortable and was like a friend to us, even in this short period of time. You can really see that he loves his job and has a great talent for passing on knowledge. Andor also gave us an extremely helpful PDF guide and a custom Google Maps list full of great recommendations for authentic food, practical city tips, and even the locations of the hidden mini statues around town. It was an interesting experience and definitely worth doing. Thank you, my fellow Gavros!

What an amazing wealth of knowledge

We just completed our "Best of Pest" with Andor. Right from the "Get-Go" we were being entertained, challenged and encouraged to learn about Budapests rich and colourful history. I would have no issue in recommending Andor and his tour.

Andor tour is a must for a beginner

Hi, we had an amazing time with Andor and he beautifully explained the history of Budapest. He added more depth to the stories by sharing his personal stories. I would recommend his tour for all new comers who are exploring Budapest for the first time.

Best Budapest tour

He is incredibly intelligent and knowledgeable about history and Budapest. The tour was highly informative, and I found myself absorbing information rapidly about Budapest’s culture and its transformation into the city it is today. He is incredibly sweet and answers all your questions. The tour might be a bit longer, but that’s because he is passionate about his work, and I can sense that passion in his interactions with me.
