5.00Judit was our guide and gave us plenty of information but we were not overwhelmed. Just the right amount of history. We then went back to some of the locations afterwards for more information and pics etc.

5.00The tour was of the right duration and our guide was thoughtful and informative. There was no rush and the pace was easy. We enjoyed the tour and felt more informed about Budapest and Hungary. The tour was free, but we were very happy to give a decent tip to the guide at the finish.

5.00This was a very thorough review of key landmarks in the city led by our extremely knowledgeable and helpful guide, Dora! The price is right and the service delivered exceeded expectations! Be sure to ask Dora for additional tips following the tour on restaurants, shopping, and other highlights you don’t want to miss while in Budapest! We particularly enjoyed a great restaurant along the river that she recommended to us. Dora was an exceptional guide!
We loved our walking tour...

5.00We loved our walking tour with Marton! He was easy to find, walked at a good pace for us, and gave us excellent history and personal experience about Budapest. We were able to ask a couple questions to help us navigate the new city. We couldn’t believe the price, and tried our best to leave a generous tip! We would highly recommend this tour.
