Discover the breathtaking pieces of an architectural style that started to flourish towards the end of the 1900s, together with the insights of an art historian. In merely 20 years numerous masterpieces were constructed according to the various branches of the Secessionist Movement present in Europe. Viennese Secession, Jugendstil, French and Belgian Art Nouveau and for the first time, a real Hungarian “National Style” was also born. Among these beautiful edifices, we offer you the chance to explore Gresham Palace in and out, the Hungarian National Treasury, the Hungarian Academy of Music, various sites in the famous and historic Váci shopping street and much more gems too than you could ever find in a guidebook. Such a tour could begin at a previously arranged location, such as your hotel, or we recommend meeting at the former House of Hungarian Art Nouveau. A coffee break is also included in the tour at a marvellous Art Nouveau landmark.

I thoroughly enjoyed my tour with Suzy! She is a wonderful guide and her knowledge of not only Hungarian art nouveau but the history of Hungary as well was extraordinary. I learned far more than I had expected as she included the cultural, socio-political historical context of all the art works that we examined. She took me to places I never would have seen on my own, not open to the public and not mentioned in the average guide book. I have been to Budapest many times in my life with my family, as my parents are Hungarian, but I had not been on any tours like this and I'm so happy I chose to. It was well worth the time and expense. I also look forward to seeing more places and reading publications that Suzy recommended to extend my knowledge and experience of art nouveau.

First of all, we had a wonderful time on the tour! Suzy is a very knowledgeable and insightful person who went above and beyond (figuratively and literally) to show us the beauty of Hungarian Art Nouveau. We had a bit of a problem with the booking over Viator, but it was quickly resolved by Suzy. I recommend booking the tour directly through her personal website. We would like to recommend the tour to anyone interested in Art Nouveau, you'll certainly have a greater appreciation of Budapest and its architecture while having a great time with a wonderful tour guide. :)

Suzy showed up in overcast 35 degree weather to give us a personal tour of Budapest. My husband and I knew little about Art Nouveau before our tour, but after our afternoon with Suzy, we spend the rest of our trip looking for it in other cities we visited (check out the Blue Church in Bratislava...). We met Suzy a couple of hours after arriving in Budapest and as this was our first trip to the area, Suzy ended up giving us a tour of Budapest in general with visits to the Buda and Pest areas of the city. She managed to get us into a few private hotel areas to show us beautiful stained glass windows, and used her charm with front desk managers so that we got the best views of Art Nouveau buildings. Suzy is warm, personal, and fiercely passionate about Hungarian art and culture. I highly recommend this tour even if you have never heard of Art Nouveau.
