Budapest? More like Foodapest Hungary’s capital is a haven of seductively succulent street food. But with so much choice, it can be hard to know where to start. On our Budapest Food Tour you’ll join a local guide and a group of fellow food-lovers to eat your way through the city and try authentic Hungarian street food and traditional dishes.


Since much of Hungarian cuisine is influenced by Jewish culture, we’ll meet at an old synagogue. Here you’ll learn a bit about the history of the food you’re going to try before heading into District 7, a former Jewish neighbourhood turned nightlife hub. Our route will show you two sides of Budapest: gritty and glamorous.


Eat like a local by sampling street food such as traditional soup and Lángos, a deep-fried flatbread. After soaking up the bohemian ambience we’ll get fancy at atmospheric eateries for a sit-down meal. Here you’ll try classics like nokedli dumplings and Flódni, a Jewish-Hungarian pastry.


Of course, food is always better when you’re a bit tipsy, so you’ll indulge in local drinks that have been perfectly paired with our dishes. Savour the fruity flavours of Pálinka and sweet wine from Tokaji, Hungary’s famed wine region.


Hung[a]ry for adventure? Our Budapest Food Tour has all of the necessary ingredients for a good time: food, culture, company, and a few drinks. What more could you ask for? Experience Budapest’s history and culture through its cuisine and make new friends along the way. Book now!
