An Educational and Enthralling Evening - Oscar gave us a warm greeting, then proceeded to entertain us with historical tales, weaving the threads together to the inevitable conclusion. A great way to spend the evening, whilst learning a little bit of history

Absolutely must - Absolutely amazing! Oscar was the perfect guide and kept the entire group enthralled with the Bloody history of Budapest. I wanted to stay longer and learn more. He really brings his acting background into his story telling. It was my favorite tour we took.

Dark stories of Hungary: a journey into the bloody past - Today we did the Blood Thirsty Hungary tour and it was a fantastic experience. Not only because of the locations, full of history and mystery, but also because of the narration of our guide, Oscar, who was excellent. His way of telling the stories transported us to another time, making us live every moment with intensity. It was an amazing, immersive and very well achieved experience. We highly recommend it to anyone who wants to discover the darker and more fascinating side of Hungary.

Best guided tours in Hungary - We took part in the tour together and it was the best tour we ever had. Oscar our guide didn't read anything or bluntly tell us, he offered us a little spectacle and you can tell rightly that he likes to do his job. An absolutely fair price for the tour.

The most amazing tour! - Absolutely brilliant tour, brought to life by the wonderful Oscar! The stories we heard were incredible, and Oscar was a joy to hear retell them. We explored parts of the castle district that we wouldn’t have found otherwise, and Oscar gave us so many interesting facts, not only about bloodthirsty history, but the old town itself. Would absolutely recommend!

Thrilling city stroll - Our guide was Oscar, an US-Hungarian actor, and our tour was marvelous! Oscar is an awesome storyteller, also as an non-native English speaker I could follow him very well. He could picture those bloodthirsty stories so well, it was great. The stroll around Buda castle by night was the perfect frame for the tour! Absolutely recommended
