The journey begins at an old synagogue, the ideal starting point to dive into Hungarian food traditions, which are deeply rooted in Jewish heritage. From there, you’ll wander through District 7, Budapest’s former Jewish quarter, now a buzzing nightlife hub. As you walk, you’ll experience both the gritty charm and glamorous side of the city.

Start with the laid-back, casual side of Budapest and get ready to sample some street food while on the go! You’ll taste local favourites like a traditional soup (we Hungarians are soup lovers) as well as the classic, freshly made cheese topped flatbread Lángos, a crispy, yummy street food. After taking in the bohemian vibe of the old Jewish quarters of the city, your expert guide will take you to more refined spots for a sit-down meal, where you’ll enjoy Hungarian classics, after the main course trying a rich cake called Flódni, a Jewish-Hungarian layered pastry.
