Free Communist Tour Budapest

After World War 2, communism slowly settled in Budapest for almost half a century of still economy, secret assassinations, and the nullification of freedom.

On the Free Communist Tour Budapest, you will hear all about the footprint of a powerful ideology directly from a local’s perspective. Not so long has been since communism ended in the city, and there is so much to unveil by exploring the Pest area of the capital.
