We saw all the important things,...

5.00We saw all the important things; unfortunately, it rained heavily. We arrived by ship and were also picked up there; it was very well organized. Gabrielle and her driver were a great team. Our special thanks go to Susana from Viator, who made this wonderful tour possible, as the scheduled guide Steve had to cancel at short notice due to illness.
Nora is amazing, wonderful tour

5.00This was a perfect day to cover most of the main sightseeing points in Budapest. Our guide, Nora was fabulous. She was funny, friendly and knowledgeable, we got answers to all of our questions. She costumized the tour according to our needs, we asked for some extra stops. The Parliament building was gorgeous, and the Christmas decoration all around was a big plus!
Susan is the best

5.00We had a wonderful tour with Susan. It is worth the costs we learned so much. We could not have covered all the sights on our own. Susan was really professional and friendly, she accommodated all of our extra wishes. We really enjoyed the history, the buildings and all the views. The Parliament indoor tour was breathtaking, pretty impressive. It was the highlight of the day!
You don't get what you pay for. Paid for 4 hours got only 3. Guide with poor health that was largely only in the car.

2.00We had paid for 4 hours our stop at Jewish Quarter was only 10 min we had no stop at the citadella. We had a guide who couldn't walk. The only time she really was out was in the church and to show us the way down to the shoes at the Danube. We had to sign on the trip was over. Again we paid for 4 hours but got only 3 and there was no stop. Our guide looked at the clock several times as if she were. Should something. Honestly. We didn't go for a walk in the park because it was blocked and then we just had to drive around, we were offered nothing else. Next time send a guide that has mobility and is a little more fresh.
A marvelous tour with a wonderful guide. We can't wait to return to Budapest!

5.00This tour was as it is advertised. Only one thing is different. Our tour guide, Nora was fantastic and made this tour more than exceptional. Nora directed us to all the beautiful locations in Budapest, as expected. But she most importantly imparted the fun and joy we experienced throughout Hungary. What a beautiful city. And Nora is a wonderful person. We can't wait to return to Budapest! Thank you Nora :-)

5.001st time in Budapest with my family and we felt love with it. Our tour guide, Susan was awesome, very knowledgeable and friendly. She gave us a perfect overview of the Budapest, the buildings and its history. We learnt interesting facts and got lots of recommendations. The Parliament building was so impressive both the inside and the outside. We were so pleased to add this gigantic Parliament tour to our visit.
Great tour as a first time visitor

5.00We had done a walking tour the day before which just touched on the basics of the history of Budapest. We were hoping that this 5 hour tour would dig much deeper. We were not disappointed! From the start, Susan wanted to make our trip as personalized and memorable as possible. She is professional, passionate, and a walking encyclopedia of historical facts. We highly recommend Susan!

5.00Overall the trip was great. We gained cultural insights and saw some off-the-beaten-path sites. We enjoyed seeing the Church of Matthias and hearing the History. Only input would be to drive by of sites to come back to after the tour.
