Great experience in Budapest with our guide Olga! … We could not have asked for a nicer and knowledgeable guide. She knows Budapest inside out, but what makes it really special is the way she treats you — more like family than just a client.

Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much, but Olga completely surprised me. She’s super chill, funny, and knows her stuff. We walked around, she told stories, showed me cool little places… felt really personal, not like some boring tourist thing. Totally felt like I was exploring with a friend rather than a guide.Can’t recommend her enough!"…Seriously, best tour ever, had so much fun!
