Unusual things to do in Budapest
You want an evening that is not another dinner and not another walking tour — something with a story in it, for two people or a small group of friends on a weekend away.
Why Budapest works for this
The Jewish Quarter courtyards are one of the strangest, most layered pieces of urban fabric in Europe, and following a trail through them is the right way to meet them.
How the evening runs
Two hours through District VII and down to the embankment.
Routes here run through District VII, the Jewish Quarter courtyards and the Danube embankment. Hosting is available in English and Hungarian.
