Great way to see Budapest! Tour guides are knowledgable and have good advice for discovering the city. At 159cm with short limbs, I was too short to use the bike they had prepared but managed to use a smaller one - it still had gears and was more than sufficient for the tour. Plenty of bike lanes so safe for those who aren’t seasoned cyclists.

Very nice guide, who takes you through the history of Budapest. Ideal, everything can be done within cycling distance in Budapest. That means that you also get to see as much as possible with a unique story. Time to take pictures and rest
