Something a little different - Bianca was a wonderful guide on this quirky, unexpected tour. We learned about the socialist history of Budapest and the crazy idea of two university students to turn a decrepit old city building into a ‘Ruin bar’ sparking a movement. Fun way to learn about the city and enjoy some drinks in very different bars. Eat first as it’s not a dinner tour and the beers are big!

Great trip with a great tour guide! - This tour was fantastic and a great way to start your trip in Budapest. Our tour guide, Bianka, was absolutely lovely. The three bars she took us to were so fun and was good to see early so we could go back to during the trip. Highly recommend this tour!

The Ruin Bar Diaries: Part II (Yes, I Came Back) - Our tour guide was Tamás—and wow, the guy knows everything about ruin bars and Budapest! It felt like hanging out with that one super-smart friend who also somehow knows where all the best drinks are. We had an awesome time with him and actually learned a ton about the city's wild, artsy past. Out of the three ruin bars we visited, I’d happily go back to two of them any day—seriously, just point me in the direction and I’m there. Oh, and get this—it was actually my second time doing this tour. Yeah, it’s that good. Repeat-worthy, memory-making, mildly tipsy magic. 🍻✨

Great ruin bars tour with Ferenc - Ferenc was an incredible guide and such a good laugh with us. The history of district 7 was so good to learn about. We enjoyed as many local drinks as we could manage. The ruin bars are a sight not to be missed. But do not clink your beers to make sure you respect the culture. Thanks for the tour Ferenc.
