Overview
Our signature tour introduces local culinary and wine culture through classic flavors, unique wines, history, and stunning architecture. Includes two food markets and more than a dozen tasting stops. Budapest’s first food tour, est. 2008! With our expert guide, you’ll learn all about Hungarian gastronomy, Hungary’s fascinating food culture, and its exciting wine scene.
Our epic food, wine, and culture walk begins at The Central Market Hall—Budapest’s cathedral of food and one of Europe’s largest and most spectacular indoor markets—and continues through several of its most charming neighborhoods. We’ll explore the Ferencváros neighborhood, the Palace Quarter (a vibrant university area known for its splendid old aristocratic palaces), and the Újlipótváros area (almost like a village within the city, with café-lined streets, art deco buildings, spacious parks and cute shops). Our second market hall is off the beaten tourist track, with a great selection of vendors and a local clientele.

Central Market HallThe Central Market Hall is Budapest’s cathedral of food and one of Europe’s largest and most spectacular indoor markets. We’ll introduce you to Hungarian cuisine through the great variety and abundance of ingredients (mostly local and seasonal) on display. We will discuss the spectacular building, the culture of eating and drinking in Hungary, the ingredients, the dishes commonly made from them … and just what it is that Hungarian home cooks do with all of that pork fat, paprika, and goose liver. As we walk the market aisles we’ll taste a selection of foods (and have an aperitif to fortify us).
