My partner and I had an absolutely wonderful tour with our tour guide Christina! she taught us so much about each monument, the history and all the reasons. She was so lovely and made the start of our trip wonderful. The coffee stop was really nice too and such a great place! We highly recommend this tour trip and We will definitely be recommending to family & friends.

This was a wonderful way to see some of the main attractions of the city. Our guide Orsi was terrific; extremely knowledgeable & friendly and I would recommend her in a heartbeat! While it is a 3 hour walking tour, the pace and terrain is easygoing. I would not hesitate to use them again for another tour :)

Great tour with lots of sights along with super guide, Andi.

This tour is very good & informative. We were able to see things that we otherwise would have missed. The ride on the metro & the visit to the bath house was a treat. Our guide, Andi, was fun and very knowledgeable about the history of Hungary. The stop at the coffee shop was a special treat too. I would highly recommend this tour.
