60 Andrássy út, 1062, Budapest

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.
