I booked this tour with Viktor on behalf of my clients and they found him to be reliable knowledgeable, entertaining (even while driving) and level-headed with the ability to make quick decisions to divert so that my clients were not going to be late enroute to the airport because of road closure due to an accident. With me, he was prompt, takes initiative and polite. Highly recommend him for any tours in Hungary.
