Best time ever! - The whole tour was wonderful, Peter did an outstanding job of sharing his love of Budapest. We so enjoyed our time with him, and everywhere he took us. Food and drinks all get 5 stars. And a special thanks to Peter for helping us get an Uber back to the Hilton.

Excellent food and company! - We had a great time on our food tour of Budapest. Loved that it included street food, some traditional recipes in "fancier" restaurants, and a few drinks along the way - a really well-balanced mix of experiences showing many different facets of the city. We ended up going back to the lángos stop again the next day, it was so delicious! (And we ran into some of our tour-mates there!) Kitti brings great vibes to the tour; I was really impressed how she simultaneously brings such enthusiasm and energy while also looking out for everyone all along the way. She is a wonderful host and really set the tone for a great group dynamic. The focus is really on enjoying the food and company, less on the history, but Kitti provided good background and context on each dish, as well as her personal foodie recommendations and tips around the city. Highly recommended experience!

Phenomenal tour! - Phenomenal tour. Laura was an excellent guide. She is personable, considerate, and knowledgeable. She made all of us feel so welcome and excited about each experience. Although I was by myself, I felt included and engaged. Excellent food and drink samplings. It is definitely a lot of food! Cannot recommend enough.

Phenomenal experience with delightful guide - Phenomenal experience with a delightful guide who not only taught us about the food and drinks of Budapest, but also the culture, traditions, and architecture. It made me wish I had more time in the city to explore even more. I highly recommend booking this tour!

This food tour is an absolute must in Budapest - I did the food tour with Laura. I went in without any expectations not fully knowing all the local foods one could try in Budapest. My mind was blown. Laura is such a rockstar of a host. She was always patient and answered all our questions. She took us to some really cool spots and some hidden gems to try some amazing food and drinks. Trust me you will not leave hungry. Laura also told us so much about the city and it’s past and took time to show us around including stepping inside few buildings to marvel at their architecture. Overall this is an absolute must do in Budapest. Where else can you have some amazing food, try local drinks, meet cool people and know about their culture an past.

I should have gone two nights in a row! - I recently went on the Tipsy Food Tour in Budapest, and it was fantastic! The Lángos was absolutely delicious—definitely a highlight. The soup we tried was amazing too, full of flavor. Our guide, Nikaa, was the best! She was super friendly and knowledgeable and made the whole experience amazing! If you’re in Budapest, this tour is a must.
