  • Explore Hungarian history and communist culture on this guided Budapest tour
  • Visit monuments and sights as you remember Budapest behind the Iron Curtain
  • Go inside the House of Terror, one of Budapest's best museums, for an emotive look at the darkest stories from life under Fascist and Communist rule in Hungary

On this half-day journey into Hungary's not-so-distant past, you'll hear stories, both sad and uplifting, about Budapest's communist history.

Visit communist-era cafés, and thrift shops selling retro artifacts. See surviving monuments, reminders of life under hammer and sickle. Delve into a history you can barely imagine through an English-speaking guide's native perspective.

Your tour includes entry to the House of Terror, a frightening but necessary reminder of the horrors faced by ordinary Hungarians during Fascist and Communist rule.

This tour was great. The tour guide, Lorinc , was awesome. Even though I was the only one, he gave the best tour around the city. Very knowledgeable of all the monuments and areas of interests....
This tour was great. The tour guide, Lorinc , was awesome. Even though I was the only one, he gave the best tour around the city. Very knowledgeable of all the monuments and areas of interests. Even stopped and treated me to my first Chimney cake, a Hungarian staple. After the tour, he also gave me recommendations of other places to see that was not apart of the tour. Definitely recommend for first time visitors. Get Lorinc as your guide… you won’t be disappointed!
