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.
Robert is an absolute font of knowledge. He is passionate and has so much to share. If you are interested in the history both historical and local of Budapest then this is the tour for you. There is a lot of information and Robert does speak very fast, so you need to pay attention. But it was great
Robert is an absolute gem and is extremely attentive! The 3,5 hours went past much faster than I thought. He made everyone feel included and shared a lot of historic and personal knowledge, making it very memorable :)
Very knowledgable and passionate about Budapest. Told us lots of interesting facts. Shared lots of personal stories Altogether a nice friendly guy.
Brilliant tour. Robert was a great guide - despite it being a longer than the average walking tour on paper, it felt really relaxed and fun. He didn't just tell us facts we could have found in a guide book, but also personal stories and things you would only learn from a local. I was glad I did the tour on my first day in Budapest, because I found the guide he sent out post-tour to be very helpful. (Also I won a prize in one of his quizzes and am easily won over with free candy.)
Robert was excellent! Better than I expected and the personal family stories further gave it a bit oomph! Great historical narrative, good jokes and trivia! Definitely 5 stars and the best walking tour I’ve ever done and I’ve done plenty!
