Taste, Walk, Discover
If you truly want to get to know Budapest, start with its flavors. The Taste Budapest – Food and Wine Tour isn't just a walk or a food tasting – it's a shared culinary experience, where stories, dishes, and people all come together.
We begin our tour at the Great Market Hall – Budapest's most iconic indoor market, then continue through a hand-picked route of hidden foodie gems and cozy local eateries in the downtown area.
Along the way, you'll taste both the classics and the surprises of Hungarian cuisine: pogácsa (savory pastries), artisan sausages, pickled delights, sweet rétes (strudel), and a hearty hot dish or traditional soup – just like the locals enjoy it.
But it's not just about food – you'll also sample a curated selection of Hungarian wines, introduced by passionate local guides. At every stop, you'll get more than a taste – you'll get the story behind it.
