Great overview of the city hitting a good blend of history, sights and culture. Kaitlin was a pleasure.

Our guide was very knowledgeable and we really appreciated the extra information she shared on the tour regarding the various cakes and local sculptor. I would definitely recommend this.

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Budapest with Dalia today. She quickly altered the planned tour route when we shared with her that we needed to catch an earlier flight. Her knowledge of the history of the area was exceptional and she pointed out so many details that we would have never discovered on our own. I highly recommend!!

This tour was a great introduction to Budapest on our first day in the city. Our guide, Naomi, was very informative and brought us to both the Buda and Pest sides of the Danube. She was very knowledgable about Hungarian history and culture. Highly recommend this tour.

A disappointment! I wish that we had done the free tour instead. Although our guide was a kind person, I could neither understand her nor did she do anything other than reel off dates as fast as possible. We ended up cutting the tour short because it was a frustrating experience. It had great potential with only my daughter and I on the tour but sadly it was a disappointment.

We basically had a private tour as there were no other vacationers. Tour was excellent. Learned a lot about Buda and Pest. Tour guide was terrific
