Very thorough explanation of the history of Budapest, Sarah was a very knowledgeable guide! Would highly recommend!
We really appreciate your review and recommendation. Thank you for choosing Eurama for your sightseeing experience!
Perfect tour for an overview of Budapest. Good combination of being in the the Van (with AC) and getting out to explore on foot. Enjoyed Mathias church and Fisherman’s Bastion. Our guide Dora was wonderful - very knowledgeable, answered questions did a good job managing the tour which was in both English and Spanish. This was a perfect tour for us given our limited time in Budapest as well as the heat. Tour ended at St. Stephan’s Cathedral which was an excellent springboard for lunch, a little more exploring and then back to the hotel for a rest.
Thank you very much for your positive feedback! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the tour and that Dora's knowledge and management of the bilingual experience stood out. We hope your further explorations of Budapest will be just as memorable. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future!
Great way to get an overview of the city and the main attractions. Our guide Dora was knowledgable, friendly, answered our questions. Good combination of time in the van (with AC) and being able to walk/explore. Only 4 of us in total - 2 Spanish speakers, 2 English. Dora did a good job balancing between both.
Thank you very much for your kind feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the tour and Dora's guidance. Hope to see you again soon!
Great experience. Dora was our tour guide and she was very helpful and accommodating and professional.
Thank you for your kind words! We're delighted to hear you had a great experience with Dora. Hope to welcome you again soon!
Tour visited some of the main attractions but offered nothing special. Could have used some more anecdotes and personal input.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We appreciate your comments and are continuously working to improve our tours.
The tour guide for this tour was so knowledgeable, she made the tour memorable for me. The castle was stunning, the amount of time at each stop was perfect, I would definitely recommend this excursion.
Thank you for taking the time to give us a review! We are glad to hear that you had an amazing tour and that the guide and driver made it even more enjoyable.
The bus was not very scenic and ABOVE ALL, a visit was supposed to be in French, but since there were more English speakers, the comments were bilingual but more substantial in English, which was a HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT considering that the guide was very knowledgeable and, moreover, French. Unfortunately, one must conform to mass tourism, so the VALUE FOR MONEY is EXCESSIVE; in this case, one should provide audio devices!!!
Thank you very much for your honest feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations, particularly regarding the language and the quality of the tour. By the way, our bilingual tours usually work quite well, based on the feedbacks we receive.
Our tour guide, Dora, was great, really knowledgeable, friendly, and approachable, and she made sure to include everyone as she was explaining the site and the history. She made us want to come back again!
Thank you for sharing your feedback! We're delighted to hear that Dora sparked your interest and provided such a positive experience. We will make sure to pass on your praise to her, and we hope to see you again soon!
It was a small group traveling in a comfortable van with a nice and informative English speaking guide.
We are glad that you enjoyed the tour. Thank you for choosing Eurama for your sightseeing experience!

Thank you for choosing Eurama for your sightseeing experience! We will pass your kind words to Dora.
