As a father, I know that nothing beats seeing your little one(s) excited and curious about things to discover around town. This is exactly what this tour is about: fun, excitement, and discoveries. With this listing, you start an offer request and will be able to provide your full input in order to get a tour customized to your needs. The tour price moves between 150-175 EUR approx. My recommendation is that we discover together the castle district and City Park, but other areas can also be as much fun. Should you not be looking for a tour, for the listing price I will provide you with a 2-page mini-guide with tips and links for places and attractions suitable for children, if you are spending a longer time in Budapest. Unless you do some serious research, this takes quite some time to put together. For those booking the tour, the mini-guide will be deducted from the final price. Hope to see you soon!
