Traveler Reviews

I have used InsightCities guides on many of my trips. When I knew I was going to Budapest with my daughter, I immediately searched to see what tours Insight Cities had there. We were so fortunate to have Eszter as our guide. I cannot image what this trip would have been like without the tour. We gained so much insight into the history of Budapest and the Jewish community.
