Our Story
Kult-Turist is a DMC based in Budapest, Hungary, organizing tailor-made cultural and educational programs in Central Europe and the Balkans. Over the last 30 years we organized and operated hundreds of tours, all of them were special for some reason. Just to mention a few from our past: U.S. architects studied Central European architecture, including meeting local professionals like Imre Makovecz; Finnish botanists studied the flora in Hungary; Japanese folk dancers learned local dancing traditions and performed on folk festivals; musicians from New Zealand got hands on experience on Central European folk music traditions.
We organize over 30 programs per year in Central Europe and the Balkans for Road Scholar, one of the biggest educational program provider in the USA.
We also organized many international conferences most of them were connected to the cultural fields. Each conference is unique and we make it even more unique by adding on a thematic walk or tour, connected to the subject of the conference.
The Book
To celebrate our 30th anniversary Mr. László Szále a well established Hungarian journalist wrote a book of our story. It is an interview book, which includes personal stories of the most important actors of the first 30 years of our history.
The book is only available in Hungarian at the moment, but we hope to publish an abbreviated English version soon.
The Motto
The motto of the book by István Monok University professor, Doctor of Academy of Science, Director General of the Library of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences
“In the Matthias Graduale there is a chorus singing on a tiny (ca. 3 inch) initial. In front of them, the songbook, is nail-sized. But to the astonishment of the researchers, under a magnifying glass it turned out that the notes of the score depict a playable melody. So the codex painter wanted to do the perfect job even if nothing could be seen with the naked eye.
This is also the mentality of Kult-Turist team.
It is by no means a coincidence that the wall of the director’s office is decorated with this symbolic initial.”

“It is my experience that Kult Turist approaches its work with outstanding dedication and care. From program development all the way through to operation, Kult Turist goes to great lengths to truly understand the needs of Road Scholar participants and to provide high quality educational services. Their team is incredibly responsive and a pleasure to work with.”
Sándor Kopátsy
“Why do I love Kult-Turist? Because I like its owner and also the way he is working. When we’d met in the Bakony, soon he became an enthusiastic supporter of children in state custody. His hotels are like families. In him I found an entrepreneur for whom bringing happiness into one’s life is more important than money.”
István Monok
“Kult-Turist has established ties with cultural and scientific institutions in such a way that it can easily meet demands of various kind. Demands ranging from the desire to get a quick snapshot of an issue, to discover a local lifestyle, or to receive scientific knowledge. In many respect, the company relies on the knowledge of its liaison partners and refrains from direct interpretation of what is offered to its guests and clients.”
Béla Pásztor
“Our city entrusted Kult-Turist-ITH with organization of domestic and international tours. The work of István Király and his colleagues can be characterized by trustworthiness and punctuality. If we organized similar tours, we would gladly cooperate with Kult-Turist in the future.”
