This is my first time in Budapest and the tour is perfect for knowing the city and learning its history. My guide Szofia is the best not only she is born and grows up here but she always has some story to tell you at each street/site/building/statue. It feels that the names, events, and stories are her own treasures. BTW, she knows every corner of the street and will get you to the right spot for photos. The tour includes lunch and boat trip. The Hungarian food is so good and I cannot even finish it! BTW, we ran into a very special military ceremony event at the Millennium park. Thank you Szofia for a very nice full day tour.

Our tour guide Szofia was excellent. She was very knowledgeable about the beautiful city of Budapest and took her time to explain all the history and interesting facts about each aspect of the tour. Lunch was included and although my daughter is both vegetarian and has a gluten free diet, her needs were met and confirmed during the booking process. I can highly recommend this tour.
