Overview

On this self-guided walking tour, you'll admire magnificent synagogues and murals in this quirky and storied neighbourhood. On this tour, you'll hear from Vince, born and raised in Budapest, a part-time tour guide, a history freak and a wine lover.

Budapest’s Jewish Quarter—or District 7—is layered with forgotten stories and filled with hidden and often quirky historical sights. On this self-paced tour, you’ll go down its famous passages and streets past magnificent temples and synagogues and hear about the vast and enchanting history that unfolded there. The producer, Vince, will share the area’s interesting connection to Harry Houdini, the King of England, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Brad Pitt, and Tony Curtis.

By the end of this tour, you’ll have immersed yourself in the largest Jewish community in Central Europe while discovering this district’s vibrant cultural life.
