Budapest Free Walking tour - Downtown Legends and Street Art Adventure
Hi there! My name is Bianca and I’m a local tour guide from Budapest. I have a deep love for history, legends, and fun facts about this beautiful city. I also have a passion for discovering hidden gems and sharing their stories with others. When I’m not exploring the city, I’m a yoga practitioner and have a strong interest in philosophy and psychology. I love outdoor activities and meeting people from all over the world. As a guide, I strive to provide an engaging and authentic experience for visitors to Budapest.
