Hi there,

my name is Petra and welcome on my page. I’m a local from Budapest, Hungary.

In my opinion, the main specialty of my city is, it’s on the edge of modern and classic. I love to walk around and on every corner see the 19th century with all of its beauty and style then only two more steps to be shocked by the “neo-ugly” communist architecture.

I’m an experienced tour guide since 2015 and also a licensed tour guide in the largest European Synagogue.
I speak fluent English and in any case of necessity my Spanish can help me to survive and of course, I’m a native speaker of the fourth most difficult language of the world; Hungarian.

I’m energetic, enthusiastic, a history nerd and I love to talk. I love challenges, my main profile is customized tours when my guests want to explore more in Budapest beside the main attractions. I’m also a big fan of legends and myths, and it would be great to share all the stories with you!

I am from Mongolia. Yeah, you might heard about the great Genghis Khan and the Mongolian fighters…I’m one of them, however I live in Budapest for a long-long time now. I always wanted to discover new places so I wandered around the world for a while and after conquering different countries, including the US, Norway and some parts of Asia, I returned back to Hungary and saw this city, Budapest, with completely different eyes.

I was amazed by the details that I previously never noticed or had taken for granted. You will constantly encounter memories of the past, in a building or in statues of the heroes of this nation.

The streets are telling you stories about the past hundreds of years, and if you pay attention you can learn a lot about the deep meaning of being Hungarian and how is it to live in this upcoming cosmopolitan city.

I have many interesting stories to tell you, urban legends, and questions we can think about together. I started to work as a guide next to my university to make some extra money. At that point, I wouldn’t think anything more than that, but later I was just amazed by „my own” country so I decided to use Budapest as my office and welcome people who are willing to learn and understand the great history and culture of Hungary.

Altough I spent all my 27 years in Budapest, I always loved to travel, that’s why I know exactly, how much more fun it can be if you have a local friend, who shows the best parts and hidden gems of your destination. That is my main motivation as a tour guide, I want to be that guy, who helps you to fall in love with my favourite city, Budapest.

Since I was 14 I knew that I want to be a tour guide, just I couldn’t decide in which language, so now I speak German, Dutch, Hungarian, and of course my strongest suit, English. My main interests are food, history (especially the 19th and 20th century) and any form of contemporary art. In the last two years I held pub tours, so I’m quite familiar with the city’s nightlife as well.

My goal is to personalize every of my tour as much as possible to fit your interests and needs. I want to show you Budapest as I see. It’s the home of pile of different kind of fun. It doesn’t matter if you’re a history nerd, foodie, art enthusiast, nature lover or maybe a party animal, I will show you the ways, how you can make the best out of this city.
