I was born in Budapest. Besides being a tour guide, I am a writer, journalist, playwright, and screenwriter. For me, stories represent the world and thus human understanding within it. That's why I am in love with Budapest, where the infinitely diverse facades, the musty walls of the historic castle district, and the spaces of modern communal areas tell mysterious and adventurous stories, just like the cobblestones beneath our feet, the facades above our heads, or the hidden pubs with their regular patrons. If you join me, I will not only show you the most beautiful and important sights of the capital city but also share some of the best stories it has with you.
We met Robert for a comprehensive and in depth walking tour of Budapest and we’re astounded. Despite the freezing cold weather, snow and thick fog, he delivered a beautifully crafted insight into not only the historical data of Budapest but also colourfully illustrated the lives of those who have inhabited and shaped the city. The tour spans historically from the formation of the Hungarian nation up until the present day, which given the 3.5 hour time frame is an impressive feat to keep the audience engaged and entertained. Alongside the historical data included, Robert also weaves a tangent of Hungarian film, theatre and art which enriches the tour and leaves so much more to explore once it is over. We are very grateful to have learnt from a genuinely passionate Budapestian who has flawlessly imparted the knowledge that will ignite our own research. Egészségére from Liverpool !
Robert was an excellent guru. He was friendly, fun and informative. Apart from some incredible historical tales, he also put things in perspective with his family stories. And the hot tea in freezing weather was a saviour!
Robert is a great tour guide who gave many insightful suggestions and information on the places we visited
Robert was absolutely outstanding - his knowledge was faultless and superlative and he went above and beyond to ensure the walk was memorable, fun, inclusive and educational. Incredible attention to detail. Five stars all round.
The best walking tour I’ve ever been on. The knowledge, storytelling and flexibility/ adaptability of our tour guide was exceptional. The no.1 thing to do in Budapest.
