I've gotten so much great info on the forum, but haven't seen anything about great guides to hire for walking tours in Budapest. We'll be traveling there in early April 2027. Can you provide any suggestions?

I haven’t taken this one, but a friend did and liked it so much she has gifted it to me and another friend in October. I’ll know more after that.

Here is another that I've been told was good: https://lovefromhungary.com/ And I think one RS type used her last year and may have put her in a trip report. Search the forum on the name and see if you get a hit.
This is where I come up short. I hired a guide nearly 25 years ago on my first visit and I tried another guide a few years back ... she was okay, but cant remember her name. I do hire a guide for the vineyards and wine tasting events. I can give you her contact if that is interesting. I also know a good market guide who follows up with a cooking class. She's excellent. I might actually do a repeat. Otherwise this is sort of an easy city to self explore.

As Mr E says we used Julie Kravianszky jkravianszky@gmail in December 2024. We took a half day tour that she created of the Art Nouveau sites that incorporated other major sites that were near by. She provided information on the Art Nouveau that I would have otherwise missed and also provided interesting information on Budapest.
She was easy to communicate with, met us at our hotel and enjoyable.
