We recently visited Budapest with a general tour but wanted more of a Jewish experience so we booked this tour through Viator. There was a larger group for the Basic Tour but only two of us continued on for the Extended Tour. Our guide Barbara was excellent and very personable. She was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the Jews in Budapest and really all of Hungary. We thoroughly enjoyed spending the time with her.

Visiting the Jewish Museum, Dohany Synagogue and cemetery was a highlight of our Budapest stay. We are Jewish, but learned so much that we didn't know.
