    We were fortunate enough to do an Art Nouveau walking tour with Suzy throughout Budapest. Suzy is knowledgeable and thoughtful. She has extensive knowledge about Budapest’s architecture and history and took us to many lesser known sites. She was also mindful of the heat and made sure that we were appropriately shaded and walking at a comfortable pace. I would highly recommend Suzy for a walking tour for anyone who is visiting Budapest. I booked through Viator and found it was very reasonably priced. Thank you again, Suzy!

    Suzy took the two of us on an extremely informative walking tour looking in great detail at a number of Art Nouveau buildings. She had a knack of accessing areas not open to the public. This meant we saw so many more examples of Art Nouveau features like stained glass windows, wrought iron work & porcelain tiles than we would ever have found ourselves. Suzy had so much knowledge which she shared enthusiastically, pointing out details we would not have noticed independently. She gave us much more time than we expected and broke the walking tour with a stop for very good coffee & cake beautifully served in Hungarian porcelain at the amazing Art Nouveau Four Seasons Gresham Hotel. We would highly recommend booking one of Suzy’s tours - curiocitybudapest.com

    Suzy is absolutely amazing. She is not only an expert in art and art nouveau, she is a walking encyclopedia when it comes to history. She is able to tie the art together with its historical roots and leaves her guests with a profound understanding of Hungarian art and culture. Suzy is charming and professional. She went out of the way too make sure all of the important sites were visited and added in a side stop at a beautiful art museum as an extra bonus along the way. Would absolutely recommend!!!

    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. :)
