Wasteful

Kind of a waste. Walked around downtown. The boat ride and seeing the city lights was wonderful the rest was a waste of time

Sparkling night in Budapest

My tour was with Kristof booked on Tours with locals. He was so enthusiastic and tied everything together from our basic tour and little knowledge of the Nazis and Soviets in Budapest the sparkling lights reflecting in the Danube made it all magical. He guided us onto public transportation, which is the easiest way to get around due to intense traffic. It's free for people over 65 nothing to it! And we learned so much.

Excellent night walking tour

Excellent tour and very lovely at night. The city is so beautifully lit up! It is a long walk but the pace is slow enough. Our guide Petra was excellent! So knowledgeable and great personality. The river tour was good but not great. The recording didn’t coordinate well with where we were on the river. Still pretty.

Wonderful experience!

Terrific time shopping and cooking with Kinga and Berti our guides. We had a wonderful electic group of participants in this cooking class which made the experience even more fun. What a delightful and delicious experience! Would recommend this to anyone who enjoys a relaxed approach to food and wine.

Enchanting

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2-hour night walking tour with Lujz. The city is incredible at night! Lujz was so knowledgeable and a delight! The icing on the cake was the boat ride and seeing the city from the river at night! ENCHANTING! Would highly recommend this tour!

The sights were wonderful...

The sights were wonderful and educational. However, our tour guide almost lost our group walking so fast through the crowded river walk portion. And directions back to where we started were limited.

Wonderful First Night Tour In Budapest

My wife and I were fortunate enough to get this as a private tour. Having a senior moment, I forgot our tour guide's name, but she did a wonderful job introducing us to the lovely city of Budapest, educated us on the history, the culture, the people, the food...it was wonderful! We really only concentrated on one section of the city, from the Opera House to the waterfront, but that was plenty to absorb. We finished with a lovely 1 hour boat ride at dark up and down the Danube. Some wonderful night sites on both sides of the river, and it was a perfect way to end our first day. Recommend this tour to all first timers to Budapest.

Nice tour but the river...

Nice tour but the river cruise was marred by the fact another cruise boat sailed parallel to us at the same time and pace thus blocking much viewing.

Operator response

Dear Bryan, First of all, thank you for choosing the Budapest Night Walking Tour with Danube River Cruise! We are sorry that another boat ruined the view! Although it is not obvious on a wholesaler booking platform, like Viator, but our company is NOT in charge of the cruise. The Danube Cruise is an attached service. Our duty is to deliver a memorable walking tour to our clients! Sincerely, Absolute Tours
