Great day with amazing guide! - Rashad was amazing tour guide for a full day in Budapest. Our group of five included four who had never been to Budapest. For them it was a great introduction to the city. For me, who has been many times to the city, it was still a great day because I learned so much about the history of the places we visited! Lots of flexibility to tailor the day to your own interests. Rashad uses a separate driver so we are able to be picked up and dropped off wherever we wanted and Rashad could stay with us. He even recommended a delicious Hungarian langos restaurant for lunch!
