The tour was wonderful and was beyond our expectations. I have been to Hungary many times before with family(I am a Hungarian-American)since I was a child. Bálint, our tour guide, showed me things I had never seen before. He was well-versed in history and spoke many languages. Zoltán, the owner, was beyond thoughtful and helpful. We had experienced a crash and one of us actually needed medical attention. Zoltán drove ito hills from the city and personally took us to the hospital to make sure everything was 100% under control and taken care of. Despite this little setback, the tour couldn’t have been better. These people are truly wonderful. I would recommend this bike tour to anyone who is interested in seeing both the standard attractions and parts of Hungary that are typically off the beaten path- The Lángos that we had for lunch was quite tasty!
I have done many bike tours around European cities and this was by far the most enjoyable. Zoltan met us at our accommodation with our bikes which are of high quality. He brought drinks and provided snacks through our journey to Budapest castle and the beautiful views from the Budapest hills. He is a very competent and chilled guide who showed us many of Budapests sights from the viewing points above the city. Definitely a must-do- we loved it!
Koltan was a wonderful guide. Very informative and attentive. We chose the private tour to explore the area outside the tourist area and the it was all we expected and more.
Zoltan was absolutely superb as our guide on this adventure. We started the trip by going to some of the sights around the city then we made our way up the Buda hills. We put the ebikes on a train and travelled up the hill a little. It was brilliant fun! Coffee n snacks were followed by more cycling and then a fantastic downhill section through the woods down towards the Danube and the City. The bikes were of a very high quality and Zoltan was such a lovely guy. Really good company and easy to be around. This trip was excellent, we seen parts of the City that tourists never venture to. 100% recommended if you want a fun time.
