Budapest City Discovery Tour

Excellent value for money and a really great tour- Dori was lovely and very professional, teaching us a great deal about the city and its history. We were able to take breaks off the bus for photographs and to see selected sites. Overall was a really great experience- thanks Dori (and driver)

E-Bike Guided Tour and Castle Hill

Our guide, Balint (apologies if I've spelt this wrong) was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and interesting. Took us all around the city. I would highly recommend this particular tour as I found it great value for a three hour guided tour on e bikes.

Segway Sightseeing Tour

Helmet and Segway were fine. Beautiful route, guide knew a lot. Stopped along the way for photos and explanations. The group had 5 participants. It can be busy on the road and there is a lot of work on the road and on buildings in the city. You also have to pay close attention to the traffic, you cannot follow the guide indiscriminately. After an introduction and practice on the Segway, we made another tour of two hours.

Segway Sightseeing Tour

This was a fantastic experience with a brilliant guide. The nerves kicked in a little when signing the waiver but the Instructions given and the opportunity to practice put them at ease. Fabulous way to see the city, would happily have carried on for longer if we could. Wrap up warm if doing this in the winter months as it can get a bit chilly - we were greeted back at the centre by the lovely staff and hot tea. Really highly recommend this tour.

Premium Daytime Cruise with Tokaj Frizzante

I was lucky to see the ads of this boat trip. Cozy, comfortable and well managed trip, service was amazing, drinks were delicious and views of course- breathtaking. I would recommend smaller boat as Duna cruise, because they look and feel much better than bigger ones.

Sightseeing Tour by an Electric Tuktuk

Daniel met me like an old friend in Budapest. He knows every corner very well. And he explains the history with so much passion. He also takes care of everything you need on te tour- including hot beverages, water, warm blankets and much more. The ride is totally worth every penny because Budapest is such a huge city and there can be so many tourist traps. But Daniel is the most genuine guide I have ever had and I would HIGHLY recommend booking his tour. Thanks Daniel for making me fall in love with Budapest!

There were very pleasant impressions!!! Thank you 💕
