Fantastic tour with great guide! - 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.

Budapest beauty - This was the first time we’d booked a private tour and it was worth it. With sone distance between the sights, it was a welcome luxury for the six of us to be chauffeured around the city. Nora the tour guide was very knowledgeable and keen to show us the main city sights and history behind them. The tour gave us a good base from which to discover further, we would not hesitate to recommend it to others!

Customized, guide gave us exactly the appropriate amount of historical detail we wanted - we were on a business trip and only had a short two days free in Budapest so opted for private guided tour. Our guide picked us up at our hotel and quickly ascertained that we were very interested in history and gave us an excellent tour of both Buda and Pest historical sites with just the right amount of details. The lunch was very good, typical Hungarian foods with a glass of wine included. We really also enjoyed the river cruise with audio guide (our tour guide kindly waited for us and brought us back to hotel after the 70 minute cruise) I would highly recommend this especially if you are short on time

The highlight of our stay in Budapest - Our guide, Marta, was unbelievably knowledgeable about a variety of topics, particularly architecture and history. She went far beyond what was required to share her love of interesting architecture and stopped at places that were off the beaten track to allow us to photograph what we were interested in. She was also so kind and helpful to our daughter who is unable to walk far due to a chronic pain condition. We consider Marta to be a real friend.

Great tour…great guide - This was a good day in the company of Thomas our guide for the day. Thomas is very knowledgeable and very straightforward in his delivery style with clear and good English. We had an interesting and full day. I did not like being asked to sign to say I was happy with everything and that it was as described as we were not getting dropped off at our hotel. We were happy but ended up paying 8250 HF (ripped off by taxi)…learning curve for what was not the first attempt. …still happy with tour and Thomas who made it for us
