The best private food tours & experiences with locals

A city of cobblestone streets, elegant boulevards, and breathtaking Baroque buildings, Budapest is an awe-inspiring cityscape that’s anything but ordinary. And as for its food scene? Well, you’re in for a surprise. The culinary culture is comforting, hearty, and homely – a stark contrast to the magnificence of its “Golden Age” architecture. On food tours of Budapest led by a hungry Hungarian guide, we’ll take you on a whirlwind experience highlighting the tastiest local cuisine. The best restaurants in Budapest are a good place to start, but the city’s food scene is much more diverse. Ready to discover the true heart and soul of Hungarian food?

Hungry for Hungary

Goulash is a must-try, but it certainly isn’t the only thing Budapest’s food scene has got going for it. Hungary’s capital city has perfected all its most iconic dishes, and there’s plenty to choose from on the ultimate food tours of Budapest. Perhaps you’ll sample traditional dishes like spreadable bone marrow, a rich dip made with sheep’s milk cheese, and an indulgent sweet treat consisting of a trio of sponge cakes. Can you handle a little more? Forego another Budapest restaurant in favor of a street food stall selling a local staple: fried dough, shredded cheese, and sour cream. Yum!

With so many incredible eateries lining the beautiful boulevards of Budapest, deciding where to eat as a tourist (and even as a local!) can feel impossible. Luckily, with a local guide to lead your Budapest food tours, you won’t have to stick to the restaurants catering to visitors.

Dining after dark

Budapest is known for being one of the ultimate European party cities, so it only makes sense that the food scene stretches well into the night. On food tours in Budapest, you could easily squeeze in a drink and dance after your late-night dinner. Whether you fancy a quick street food snack at a popular stall, a drink at a rooftop bar housed up in an Art Nouveau masterpiece, a sit-down dinner at a traditional restaurant adored by locals, or a pastry at a coffee house that only shuts at midnight, the Hungarian capital city is overflowing with fantastic food options 24 hours a day!

Ange took us to some incredible spots, showcasing not only the popular attractions but also hidden gems off the beaten path. Her deep knowledge of the city's rich history truly brought Budapest to life, offering insights we would never have learned otherwise.

    Excellent food choices. We certainly felt like we were eating like a local. The historical stops between tastings were both relevant and interesting to us. Great time all around.
