My husband and I had a two person wine tasting (given to me as a birthday gift) and we had an AMAZING experience! Because of the COVID situation, private tasting are be offered at the group price and so we had the entire place to ourselves. We tasted 5 wines, if I remember correctly, and were each given our own charcuterie plate to complement the wines. We learned so much about the history of wine in Hungary and the different regions. Highly recommend - was a very special experience.

One of the highlights of our trip to Hungary was this tour! It is always intriguing to view a city as how it was before. I personally gained new knowledge and maybe even more passion towards this subject, as I am already drawn to history. Sending our tour guide the warmest regards.

I will arrange the entrance ticket(s) for you, you don't need to stand in the queue for it. If you would like to avoid joining a larger group during your visit at the Synagogue and if you would like to have a more personal experience from a member of a Jewish family, this private tour is highly recommended for you. You will hear about history of the Hungarian Jewish Community, the time of holocaust, about those non-Jewish people who risked their lives to save Jews and got the title "Righteous Among the Nations" from the state of Israel. What will we see during our walk? Dohány Synagogue inside Jewish Museum with audioguide Martyr's cemetery Raoul Wallenberg Memorial Park Tree of Life, Emmanuel tree, Etz Hayim Heroes' Temple Righteous Among the Nations Memorial

The so-called historian was not familiar with the history of Russia. Each time I had a question, he had to look it up on Google. He mentioned we would receive head phones in The House of Terror but when we got there, we never received the headphones because he had to pay for it. I was extremely disappointed.
