Fun tour even for Seniors - This was a fun and easy tour. Most of our group of 8 had not heard of Ruin Bars so it was a new experience. The 3 bars we went to were very different from each other which really let us see what ruin bars are and get a glimpse into Budapest nightlife. We were all seniors ranging from 60-68 and we loved this tour. Since the tour is in the Jewish section, we also got a bit of history on the synagogue and the holocausts impact.

Great tour with bianca - The tour with Bianca was really enjoyable. She took us to places we wouldn’t have found by ourselves and shared her knowledge. She described the tour at the beginning as being introduced to the local party scene by a friend and the tour definitely felt that way. What a great friend to have met in Hungary. Thank you

This was such a fun and... - This was such a fun and unique way to experience Budapest! We really enjoyed getting the local perspective on the food, and our guide Zoltán was both informative and helpful—he guided us through the menu at each stop and made sure we felt comfortable trying new things. Our favorite stop was hands down Szimpla Kert, the city’s most famous ruin bar, which was even more incredible to experience with some background context. The mix of food, culture, and history made this tour a highlight of our trip.
