With the help of a historian, this 3 hour private walking tour allows you to grasp the “goulash communism” of Budapest’s decades under totalitarianism, the soft dictatorship in which Hungarians had certain liberties in exchange for obedience on major issues. Learn why, for all the suffering of Budapest’s citizens under the communist regime, Hungary was called “the happiest barrack in the Soviet Bloc.”

Kata was very knowledgeable and explained everything clearly. She has a broad world view which adds both interest and perspective. A sense of humor, grace and charm also makes for a pleasant as well as informative tour.

Remarkably knowledgeable guides and gave such rich narrative and understanding--art, architecture, political history and trivia that informs one's understanding. The team who led and shared were fabulous and accessible--their warmth and enthusiasm for both Buda and Pest! Just fabulous. I would travel anywhere with them! And they made meaningful the scenery we passed.

The Communist Budapest tour was surprusingly informative and enjoyable! I was talked into it by my friend and I was a bit skeptical, because it is usually not my favorite subject - but in this case I was pleasantly surprised. Our tour guide, Izabella, was extremely well-read on the subject and was able to answer many of our interjecting questions about the history of Budapest. That, combined with the fantastic sights we saw during the walk, was enough to provide a very valuable experience - we were able to notice certain details in monuments that we certainly wouldn't have under normal circumstances.
Amazing guide, amazing route!
