What to expect

Budapest is a city of many layers, and this tour invites you to savour each one. Starting at a fine riverfront square with sweeping views of the Buda side, the route moves through downtown Pest with purpose: a lángos counter that fries dough to golden perfection, a three-generation family restaurant whose founders invented Hungary's first lunch delivery service, and a sit-down stop for chicken paprikash paired with a glass of Hungarian wine.

Along the way, learn about the history of the Cold War's unlikely first fast-food queue; the story of goulash long before it became a national dish; enjoy a sparkling grape must from UNESCO-listed Tokaj wine country; and pass through a once-derelict passage through the Jewish Quarter that now hums with bars and street life.

Morning tours follow Andrássy Avenue past the Opera House exterior to finish with a crunchy Austro-Hungarian strudel. Afternoon tours go deeper into the Jewish Quarter, passing by street art and murals, ending with a creative vegan take on a classic Hungarian dessert.
