Discover Budapest’s street art scene and learn about the city’s contemporary culture, history and politics through these vibrant murals and street art pieces on a small group with a local guide.
On this tour, we’re going to give you an insider look at the history, the culture, and the creative context.
The bulk of this tour will be spent looking at murals, graffitis and other forms of street art. The more you explore, the more you’ll find, dotted around the otherwise bare walls of the city’s Jewish Quarter. But, we’re not just here to take photos.
We’ll discuss each piece, the themes and their socio-political background, themes and the artists behind them. With local artists dominating the scene – and using their work to celebrate ideas and items that locals hold precious – you’ll find yourself getting an accidental lesson in history and culture.
Our small-group tours are limited to 8 people only, so you’ll get plenty of chance to ask questions and get local tips

This Street Art Tour with Attila from Budapest Flow was awesome! I learned so much. Attila has lived in the area (former Jewish ghetto) since before it started being revitalized/gentrified and grew up under communism. He was able to explain some of the nuances and history of pieces that I just would never have understood or been able to appreciate otherwise.
Loved the combo of sanctioned murals, paste ups, stickers, tags and more. We had great conversations and saw so much more than “just” street art (and I’m kind of obsessed with street art). Was introduced to the work of @misskk_budapest, @0036mark, @okudart and more who I can now follow and appreciate their art from afar!!
We also went to a couple of ruin pubs, a cool bookstore/coffee shop, and he showed me some recommendations for shopping from vintage stores, local artists/makers instead of just mass produced stuff.
Would absolutely do another tour with Budapest Flow if I’m lucky enough to return to Budapest. I wish I’d also signed up for the Kolodko mini statue tour as well, but found Attila's blog post on the Kolodko statues incredibly helpful in creating my own mini self-guided tour.

Attila was extremely informative, not only about the art itself but the historical and social significance of each piece as well as the surrounding neighborhood. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and would recommend it to anyone interested in learning more about the Jewish Quarter.

Attila's very knowledgeable and passionate about street art and it shows. He takes good care of those on his tours, making sure everyone's questions were answered and everyone's ok with the tour pace.
I went on 2 tours with him - one on Street Art and another on Mini Statues. I really enjoyed both and would highly recommend them.
He not only remembers everyone's names but also everything you've mentioned to him. The tours felt very personalised and interactive, it was excellent value for money.
Thank you for making my visit to Budapest so memorable :)

Fantastic tour, Attila was informative and engaging. The tour was nit rushed and we felt we saw a true view of the area. We learnt about the history and culture from a person who lived through it and in it. I would highly recommend this tour and Attila.

This was an amazing tour. Attila showed us many sites we did not experience the day before. His knowledge of the City, Country and the World were vast. It was my birthday and this tour made for a very special day.

This tour is really, really good. It was one of our favorite experiences from a two-week trip to central Europe. Attila is so knowledgeable and enthusiastic about local artists and has lots of stories about the history of Budapest and especially how the neighborhoods have changed over the past 20-30 years. He provided great restaurant recommendations that suited our diverse group of picky eaters.
I really appreciated that Attila was able to make the tour memorable not just for the adults, but also for the kids. After our return home, our youngest was telling his friends about the the politics of the two-tailed dog party. Really wished we could have taken another tour -- we'll have to save that for our next visit!

Atilla's tour was the highlight of our time in Budapest! His ability to share the history, culture, context and current scene brought the murals, stickers, paste-ups and more to life for us. We found him to be both incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely a delight to spend an afternoon with. Sharing a coffee in a local cafe, while having a relaxed chat was a lovely way to step out of the rain. We're looking forward to exploring more of this wonderful city with Atilla on our next trip to Budapest.
