Una giornata con Kristina
Voglio consigliare a tutti questo tour per un’escursione fuori da Budapest. Considerando gli spostamenti e il pranzo compreso anche il prezzo è assolutamente buono.
Abbiamo poi avuto la fortuna di trovare Cristina (la nostra guida italana).
Una guida acculturata e disponibilissima. Ci ha arricchito con tante nozioni, tante informazioni e soprattutto con tanta storia riguardante l’Ungheria, scritta e non scritta.
Inoltre, si è adoperata per soddisfare ogni nostra esigenza.
Grazie mille.
I would recommend this tour to everyone for a day trip outside of Budapest. Considering the transportation and lunch included, the price is absolutely reasonable.
We were also fortunate to find Cristina (our Italian guide).
She was a knowledgeable and extremely helpful guide. She enriched us with a wealth of knowledge, information, and, above all, a wealth of history about Hungary, both written and unwritten.
Furthermore, she went out of her way to accommodate our every need.
Thank you so much.
Operator response

Not recommended
Pickup changed w/poor communication. Boat tour cancelled w/no notice. Many languages spoken w/heavy accent - expected English only. Sales pitch from tour guide to book outside Viator.
Operator response
Thank you for sharing the guest’s feedback with us. We are sorry to hear that you were disappointed with the experience. Regarding the boat tour, it was cancelled due to low water levels on the Danube. However, we did inform the guests about the cancellation in advance. We are sorry if this information was not received or communicated clearly to the guest. Our tours may include guests from different countries, and therefore more than one language may sometimes be spoken. Concerning the sales recommendation, we will discuss this with the guide. Our partners and the Viator platform are very important to us, and we do not support encouraging guests to make bookings outside the agreed booking channel. Thank you again for bringing these points to our attention

One day Danube trip with Raoul and colleague.
We went on this trip where Raoul was the tour guide with one of his colleagues. They were both extremely knowledgeable and made the tour enjoyable. They were the best fit for this type of tour and the right people as they were both multilingual.
