A Budapest adventure

Published on Aug, 2024

A wonderful tour, organised by Miklos but with Argi as our guide. Argi was so knowledgeable and with lots of interesting anecdotes. We went on buses, tubes, trams and chairlift.... An excellent and very worthwhile tour. Thank you Miklos

Fun-(and informative)-garian

Published on Sep, 2023

This was an amazing tour by a knowledgeable, organized, credible guide. You can ask Miklós anything..he knows the city, its history, architecture, monuments, and its culture. What is so special about the tour though is that Miklós is adaptable and flexible. He tailors the tour to the participants' interests, background, and physical endurance. He has a great sense of humor. It was excellent. The rating scale is 5 points; I rate him a 10+

Introduction to Budapest

Published on Jun, 2023

While in Budapest, we took a private tour of Budapest with Miklos of Fungarian tours. The tour was fantastic! Miklos is colourful, candid, extremely knowledgeable and made the tour a true pleasure. I would strongly recommend engaging Fungarian when in Budapest and develop a unique perspective on the local highlights and Hungarian culture.

Treated like friends

Published on Oct, 2022

We felt like best friends and not like tourists on our four hour tour with Miklos. This authentic and passionate guide managed like no other to bring us closer to the history of Hungary in such a personal way that we could really feel and understand it emotionally. Besides his deep knowledge, it was his humorous perspective on the things of life that fascinated us. Since we were particularly interested in the composer Franz Liszt, we visited some of the places of his work and Miklos even arranged a meeting with his friend, a music historian who had dedicated his life to studying the composer. What a pleasure to be able to ask him all the interesting questions after the tour, while we sat comfortably in a stylish café and ate cake. Time passed too quickly that afternoon and we felt deeply honored to have met these two precious people. Highest recommendation!

A great way to see the city

Published on May, 2022
