The guide meet at the Opera House. Made use of the public transportation to save time and energy. If you are 65 or over the transportation is free. Just be sure to carry proof of age as it would need to be presented upon request. If under 65 I suggest each traveler have pre purchased a transit card. The walking tour was very comprehensive visiting all the major sights on the Pest side before proceeding over the Chain Bridge to visit Mathais Church, Trinity Column, and Fisherman's Bastion. The guide was very well versed in the history of Budapest and the information about each sight being ready to answer questions. The strudel stop was a real treat It was one of the best restaurants providing the guest the opportunity to try a number of choices and served a beverage of choice . Guide kept a good walking pace for the comfort and ability of guest. Highly recommend

The guide , I apologize that I do not remember the name of the gentleman, was incredibly well versed in the history of Budapest, articulate, professional, and welcomed any questions. Although the meeting place was at the Opera House the eventual distance covered to incorporate the major highlights included both Pest and the Castle area in Buda. The selection of the restaurant for the strudel stop was top notch. The snack included good size samples of multiple flavors, served with a beverage of choice. This 3+ hour tour visited every major sight in Pest and a few key sights in Buda, including the crowd favorite, Fishermen’s Bastion. Great value in education, time, and reasonable price particularly for small group.

Absolutely Brilliant! This tour is a fantastic way to see many of the key sites, orientate yourself and hear some history and anecdotes. Anna has an encyclopaedic knowledge of Budapest and Hungarian history and delivers it with passion and a touch of humour. This fabulous trip was one of the highlights of the brief visit myself and friends had over Easter. I highly recommend this wonderful tour and a huge thank you to Anna.
All the great sights and interesting information.

I had an absolute great tour with my guide Andy. She is a gem. She was very tentative and showed me all the fantastic sights of Budapest. She explained in great detail, informative things and took time to answer questions. I had a wonderful tour.
