A 5 * experience

We all agreed that this was an exceptional experience, due in no small part, to our guide, Matthew. We were particularly impressed by his extensive knowledge, his passion for his city, his turn of phrase and his sense of humour. However, the welcome at the shop, the bikes, the route all added to this review. Many, many thanks Bike and Relax. We cannot recommend you highly enough.

Operator response

Thanks a lot for this kind feedback! Regards, Thomas

Not a small group

“Small group” was 12 bikes in a crowded city environment. Very hazardous. I fell as did another lady. Very hard to follow guide with long string of bikes. Just not as advertised. Great knowledgeable guide but 12 was way too many for one guide to handle.

Operator response

Dear Mary, we are sorry that you felt unsafe. Due to the rainy weather of the day before we had exceptionally 12 on the group, which is normally limited with 10 people. Very sorry!

Brilliant tour and bike

Mate was a brilliant guide full of great local info and generous with his time. A great way to see the city and key landmarks. We enjoyed so much we hired the same bikes for another day and visited Szentendre. The guys in the shop were incredibly helpful with guidance maps and directions. The e-bike is one of the best we’ve ridden. Great company great tour.

Very authentic and friendly. A tour as individual as the city! It was a lot of fun!

It was a warm and informative sightseeing tour with Peter. The tour was fortunately in German after all, even though it was not selectable in the app, and we received a lot of background knowledge. It does not get any better than this!

Operator response

Hallo Janet, eigentlich wir bieten die Tour fast immer auch in Deutsch und auch in Französisch an und es freut uns, dass es uns auch gelungen ist, die Tour kurzfristig "Deutsch" zu machen! Vielen Dank

Fantastic E-Bike Tour Through Budapest with a Knowledgeable Local Guide

I had an excellent tour with Oliver. I got upgraded to the e-bike tour, and it was great fun — especially riding up to Buda Castle at 25 km/h with very little effort. Our group received thorough instructions on how to ride the e-bikes, which made everyone feel comfortable and safe. Oliver, a native Hungarian, was extremely knowledgeable and shared fascinating historical insights at every stop. The tour was very well paced and covered all the major highlights of Budapest. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a more personal alternative away from the large tourist groups and crowds. Also worth mentioning is the lovely little shop, “Bike & Relax,” where the tour starts and ends. The MyEsel e-bikes, designed in Austria, were fantastic to ride and offer support levels from 0–5 depending on how much assistance you want during the ride.

Operator response

Dear Myriam, many thanks for sending such a detailed feedback! We love it. Great to hear that you enjoyed the tour so much. We wish you a nice stay in Budapest! Thomas & Team
