The Team
We are the Behind Budapest Guide Team!

Adam
I've finished my studies in April 2011, and I've been working as a qualified guide ever since. If you are interested not just in the facts and figures but also the way locals live their life, I'm your man! I was born and raised in Budapest so I have been an eyewitness to a sleeping beauty's transformation to a multi-cultural metropolis. I can be your insider man to understand the Hungarians better, and to have some experiences with the local life.

I truly believe that the basis of this profession is the accurate, exciting and detailed information. Since I prefer books over the Internet, I can spend whole days in a library trying to find one single piece of information someone managed to sweat me with. I’m dangerously talkative, I’m an avid fan of Hungarian water polo and a huge admirer of Robert Capa. I love literature, legends, sport, mythology, music, history (especially modern history) and Art Nouveau architecture. And food…lots of food. I had a nice, two year long ’detour’ in Barcelona, where I perfected my Spanish. In 2012 I…

Balázs
I’m boxer and ex-bouncer from South-Pest. I’m not a qualified guide, if you choose my tour, you can leave your guide book at home, because I will not tell you the average stories, but the reality, the real street stories. I will show you the nightlife of the city, I will be your mainstay and compass in the Bermuda-Triangle of the night of Pest. Budapest has many faces, and with my help you can delve into the depths of things. If you have special need on your stag party, I will solve it. Special places and good mood are guaranteed,…

Although I was born in Hungary, I spent the half of my childhood in Germany. After I moved back to Hungary, Budapest was big enough to be able to finish my studies in German language. Basically my nature is smiley, it was clear for me, what I would like to do in my life. I’d like to know more people, more cultures and I want to combine these things with my love for foreign languages. That’s why I decided to pass a tour guide exam that made me able to live for the things I love.

I'm a 3rd generation" Budapester" :) I have always loved spending a couple of hours on the Margaret Island or taking a nice walk up to one of our "hills". :) I finished the licensed guide course in 2008 and almost immediately I started working as a tour guide - in Turkey, where I spent 3 summer seasons. In the wintertime I traveled back to my beloved city, Budapest, and provided guided tours by bus. Almost 3 years ago I decided to fully dedicate my life to guiding. I really do enjoy walking everywhere and every time, so why not…

Melinda
I am a licensed guide, a very lucky one as my job is still my passion – even after years of guiding in the city. I would like to show you this city and Hungary through a real Hungarian’s eyes. Where the streets tell you stories about the past, where you can bump into amazing buildings on every corner, where there is always something interesting going on. I don’t want to show you a city: I want to show you the place where I live. Hungary is a lot more than goulash, and Budapest is a lot more than just…

Niki
I’ve been living in Budapest for 7 years, since I have started my law studies. My studies didn’t get so close to my heart... But the city and all its miracles! So here I am at the right place and will be working on to make Budapest the perfect place for you too during your stay. Me, my joyful attitude and my knowledge about Budapest and behind will accompany you and hopefully set you up with smiles.

When it comes to tourism, there are 4 related words: 1- sightseeing, 2- eating, 3- drinking, 4- shopping and when it comes to shopping, design and designers, I am the best to show you the designer shops within the historical city center with the "sip and bite" of Hungarian history. P.S.: "Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is a mystery, but Today is a gift from God, so we call it the present." See you in "one of the most beautiful capital cities of Europe", in Budapest :)

Timi
I am the guide, who didn’t want to be a guide. I’ve finished guiding school and still wasn’t interested in the job. But one day – Whoa! – I became a tour guide. And I loved it! If you are looking for a guide who is funny, amusing, and whose tours are not similar to any other guides’ tours then you are definitely looking for me!

Zsófi
Budapest is a special place, the colors and shapes are diverse, like a basket of summer fruits. Every piece is unique and different – it always surprises me with something. You have to be curious and brave to taste it all… I love walking through the hills of Buda, breathing in the fresh essence of the river Danube on the warm breeze. I like discovering the sculptures and statues, having a nap in the parks and seeing all the different opportunities Budapest has to offer to make people smile every day. Love Budapest, and Budapest will love you back even…
