I had made a list of things to see & Bianka ensured I saw them all. Her tour was informative & I learned so much about Budapest. She was a fabulous guide & I enjoyed the tour so much.
There's nothing on the website when I booked this tour that says it's a walking tour I repeat walking tour I put in 9 and 1/2 Mi today and there was nothing in the website that said this was essentially a walking tour all over budapest. It was a great tour and we saw nice things and my guide Zoltan was terrific and the lunch was great but the walking was unexpected. The only Transportation was by Subway and tram which were fine and Sultan navigated and paid for that just fine. Another thing to be aware of is that there is no admission to any of the sites. There is no admission to the opera house there is no admission to the synagogue there is no admission to the Palace there is no mission to The Basilica these are all walk by experiences which are fine but time after time I was disappointed that we could not go in. Again not zoltan's fault but the website and advertisement for the tour does not make it clear that this is a walking tour with no admission to the important attractions.
The Budapest Tour was an unforgettable experience! Our guide, Bianca, was fantastic, warm, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable about Hungary’s history and culture. We learned so much while exploring the city’s beautiful landmarks, and the traditional Hungarian lunch and dessert were delicious. Bianca made the whole day feel personal and fun, not just like a history lesson. I’d highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to truly experience Budapest in a meaningful way.
It was a rainy day, but our guide did a great job leading us through the rain using the subway, trolleys and the bus. Our guide was very knowledgeable and helpful and the restaurant for lunch was great. Budapest is a wonderful town with many things to see. A very walkable town, civilized and safe feeling.
Our Budapest walking tour was just wonderful. It was long 7h walking tour but totally worth it. Our tour guide Zoltan was was very attentive and knowledgeable. Our lunch was delicious.
This is mostly a walking tour, so there's no private transportation like minivans or so. Having said that you have an option to utilize public transportation which I highly recommend. This way you have more time to explore the sites actually worth exploring. I recommend purchasing a 24 hours pass available at any metro station (some bus and tram stations have it as well) for 2500 forints. Talk to your guide he will help you figure it out. The tour itself covers pretty much everything you want to see in Budapest which is great for getting to know the city and see what you want to explore next. Keep in mind that it doesn't not cover "the insides" of churches, buildings of interest, etc , as they all require additional tickets. Have an honest discussion with your guide of what you want to see the insides of and what should/can be skipped. The lunch provided covers a traditional 3 meal course and it's delicious. Keep in mind those are "preset" (no substitutions), so if you have some dietary restrictions contact the provider - before - the tour. As a summary we really enjoyed our time and highly recommend it to everyone. Special thanks and praise go to our guide Zoltan. He was amazing.
Zoltan was our guide. Very friendly and personable and a real passion for local history. Great day but a lot of walking. Got to experience bus tram and underground too!!. Lovely traditional meal half way round.
Zoltan was the perfect tour guide. We had simply the best tour!! He was very knowledgeable, funny and personable. We learned so much about not only the history of this beautiful city but also about the Hungarian culture and life today in the city. Our lunch was so special and delicious! Highly recommend this tour and especially this tour guide. We are loving Budapest and are thankful for the opportunity to learn so much!
Great way to see the sights. Zoltan our guide explained in detail the many facets of the city and was a wealth of information. He found us a great restaurant which was a good walking break. He took us to both parts of the city and provided great information on the origins and changes in and of the city in the last 150 years.
Emese, our tour guide made this experience very memorable. Learned so much about the history of Budapest (the good and the not so good), the culture and the people. I had an 84 year old companion who I thought won’t be able to endure the walking and stair climbing, but Emese made it such a way that we take it on our own pace. My pedometer recorded over 5 miles of total walking on and off that day. The weather was perfect (60’s high) used the public transportations (subway, bus) to get us to places that are too far to walk. The Hungarian lunch was good. It was an irony because the night prior, we had our dinner at the same restaurant where we had lunch. I recommend this tour 100% especially for first timers. If you have Emese as your tour guide, it’s a big plus.
