You will admire latter monument in extraordinary beauty: with its facade specially illuminated for this time of the year. You will not only see gorgeous facades of palaces and palace-like residential houses originating from the 19th century covering a great range of different architectural styles but also splendid squares, beautiful statues and great views on the UNESCO World Heritage panorama of the Budapest Danube embankments. We will discover Budapest's two most famous Christmas markets which are listed among the best Christmas markets in the world. Here you will have the opportunity to admire a wide range of handmade Hungarian craftsmen products while enjoying the buzzling local atmosphere of the Christmas markets.

We will enjoy a ride on the tram line which was ranked among the seven most beautiful tram lines in the world. During this tour you will see Budapest not only at daytime, but also at 'night': with all of its buildings glittering in the dark in their illuminated magical form! As I love history I will let you have deep insight into the history of Hungary and its capital and into Hungarian traditions telling you interesting facts and stories about the greatest Hungarians who made Budapest a beautiful modern capital. I will tell you legends related to great Hungarian kings and saints and I will also talk about the everyday life of Hungarians and the biggest investions of this small nation. I will tell you why Hungarians never clink with beer glasses, how we prepare the two main subtypes of our traditional Christmas meal, the 'Fisherman's soup' and why we, Hungarians never eat 'lángos' sweet. At the end of the tour I will let you 'taste' the Hungarian culture by singing you the most beautiful Hungarian folk songs and by showing you some traditional Hungarian folk dance steps!
