Zoltan was an excellent, engaging, informative guide. Exactly what we were looking for and we both enjoyed the experience.
Greg was an amazing tour guide. He gave us lots of history information while showing us the key places in Budapest. We were only 4 people on the small tour so we definitely benefited from having what felt like a private tour. Greg's knowledge of Budapest coupled with his wonderful demeanor and customer service focus truly made our experience memorable. I just wish we had more time with him! If you only have a short visit in Budapest because you are doing a river cruise or excursion from here, I highly recommend Greg. If you can ask for him, you should. You will not be disappointed!
My guide Bálint was outstanding! He was punctual, accommodating, knowledgeable, and personable. I will look for him to do another tour when I return to Budapest.
This was a great introduction to Budapest. Our guide was friendly and informative. He combined walking with public transit. The strudel stop was a treat!
Balazs was an extremely personable and knowledgeable guide. His passion for the city was palpable, which enhanced the tour greatly. He was open to questions and encouraged an interactive tour. He went above and beyond and offered some great recommendations for other things to do around the city. I highly recommend this tour with Balazs.
Fantastic orientation, introduction and insight into Budapest and Hungarian people and culture. We had a great morning with Eszter and can’t recommend her and this tour enough. Definitely a must do.
very nice walk and subway ride. Guide knowledgeable and new the History. Excellent introduction to Budapest
Don’t remember what the tour guide name was but she was not professional nor friendly very arrogant in her demeanor rude and boring long commentaries we couldn’t wait for the tour to end . Tried very hard to stick with the tour that had two other nice tourists She is a bitter person that should not be a tourist guide and work in hospitality!!!!!!
Our tour guide Monika was so friendly and insightful. My Grandson and I ended up being the only ones on the tour. We learned so much and now we have ideas to see some of the places we visited. The strudel stop was very delicious and it gave us the energy to explore the Buda side. If you have the chance to take this tour, definitely do it!
Great tour of Budapest! Our multilingual (with perfect English) guide was amazing. Good pace and variety of locations. We learned a lot.
