Hire a Hungarian: great service for foreigners
Change language:
Isn’t it so much nicer when a local acquaintance shows you around a foreign city rather than having endlessly to browse several websites, maps and whatnot? Enikő Csaba, one of the founders of Hire a Hungarian, experienced this phenomenon on a trip to New York, and after coming home, she established a company to do just that – to provide a Hungarian friend to help with everything.
“This is a help agency, we provide a helping service not only to foreign tourists but also to those who relocate to Hungary for a shorter or longer period of time. We have package deals for everything, from administrative help to sidecar tours and help with apartment buying. Our strength is in paying attention to unique requests and needs,” explained Enikő to Forbes.
They have helped with buying flats and furnishing them, with cat-adoption, family tree research, organising a Tokay wine tour for wine merchants, a cooking course for cannery workers, and the list is nearly endless.
According to Enikő, tourism has changed drastically in the past years, and Hire a Hungarian fits the picture perfectly. People hardly travel through travel agencies anymore but instead tend to buy a cheap ticket and reserve their accommodation through Airbnb.
