Wonder Guides do customize 10+ - Katalin was excellent. A 3 hr. walking Tour. She tailored our tour to not replicate the excursions already booked on the upcoming riverboat cruise. She was very knowledgeable and dove into Hungarian history beginnings to present during our walk relating buildings and monuments to the times.

A 5 Star Experience ! - Assistance from Wonder guides allowed our family to enjoy a most amazing visit to Budapest. Katalin and her guides will fill you with history and stories about this old city, the surrounding area, its history and beauty. Don't hesitate to travel to Eger, Szendrei, or take the Grand Budapest Tour. We western citizens know so little about eastern Europe. Wonder guides will wet your appetite to learn more and visit Budapest again. A 5 Star experience!

Fabulous day touring Budapest - There is so much to do in Budapest and with the limited amount of time we had there we chose to have Budapest Wonder Guide give us a tour. We LOVED Susan. There is no way in the world we could have seen as much stuff as we did if she had not guided us. Susan was knowledgeable, likeable, friendly and just so darn pleasant! Thank you so much!

Amazing tour with an excellent guide - We always book a guide when we travel to get a better inside view of a city and it was a amazing and above our expectation. Our tour guide Katalin is extremely knowledgeable, skilled and makes history easy and fun. Katalin put together a beautiful walk along all the highlight in response to our wishes. She does this in an easy going and adequate manner, with a dose of humor, where there's space for questions. Her pace is perfect and enjoyable. Her interaction is fantastic and she is also interested in her guests. We highly recommend Katalin, it was lovely and fantastic!!!

Wonder Guides are Wonderful. - Katalin is an excellent guide with a masterful knowledge of this grand city. She is able to provide indepth historical information. If you need adivce about any aspect of the city, she knows all the details. Ask her about a restaurant or a place to stay, and she can give you advice. We recommend Katalin for large or small groups, children as well as adults. She can take you to exhibits for children that adults can also enjoy. We are thankful for our experience with Katalin and gained a better understanding of the beautiful Budapest. .
