Our Tour Guide Norbert was incredibly knowledgeable and entertaining about the sites in Budapest. One advantage of a TukTuk over other Tour vehicles is that they are allowed to drive to the top of Castle hill on the Buda side of the river. In addition, they can park closer to many sites in places cars or a bus can’t park. The ride was a bit chilly, but we were dressed for it. We recommend.

We just finished a fantastic tour with guide Paul. The tuktuk was very comfortable. It was a cool but pleasant day so the top was open, which we really enjoyed. Paul was an excellent guide and very knowledgeable about Budapest and its history. We covered a lot of ground in 2.5 hours. Bridges, churches and synagogues, castle district, Parliament and a few other sites in between. We only had a short time in Budapest, and this as a great way to see the highlights and get the history in a very efficient manner. I would highly recommend this tour!

Paul, our guide, arrived a few minutes early at our dock. The tuk-tuk is very comfortable, a little bumpy, and alot of fun. We stopped a few times for a short stroll and a story about the different historical cites. Great picture taking. Paul is very patient, professional and informative. All around great guide. I recommend him highly. Thank you for a great experience.

I rarely write reviews, but I just have to this time. My wife and I had a wonderful time, seeing a beautiful city. Our guide Ben gave us history, current events, and insights that helped us understand the people of Hungary. That is what matters to me when I travel. Ben is an excellent person and an excellent tour guide. The tuk tuk tour is a great overview, after which you can better choose what to see in more depth during the rest of your visit to Budapest.

Our trip on a Tuk Tuk was great fun. Martin provided great commentary on all things Budapest. But it would have been far less fun if we were not dressed well for the cool weather. Take care to dress appropriately and have big fun!
