Good service

Good service for the pre arrangement, full information were provided 10 days before we started the journey. Experienced driver with good service too.

Cloudy Tour of Budapest

Margs_A, Dec 2023

The intermittent rain and partly cloudy weather did put a little bit of a damper on the trip. We however give a 5* rating to our skilled driver Georgi and his incredible knowledge of Budapest and many other European cities. Given Vienna and Budapest were once joint capitals of the Austro-Hungarian Empire with a shared history, the tour of ‘Buda’ and ‘Pest’ was actually ok. A walk around the Christmas market and a goulash mid-afternoon lunch at Cafe Kor ended the day beautifully. A private day trip to Budapest is therefore a return car journey with the tour details left partly to the driver and mostly to the tourist. Go when the skies are clear...for the proverbial INSTA photographs.

It could have been better rented a car, a train or plane to get there

MiguelAngel_I, May 2023

The guide contacted me 19 minutes before to let me know he was in Salzburg with a problem in his car, but he was sending another driver, this la die although was polite and nice didn't knew ANYTHING about Budapest, this was a transfer and come back, we hat a very expensive experience, better off alone, she couldn't recommend where to go what to visit, any history of the place, where or what to eat, for me it was very unprofessional the way this situation was handled, get another tour,

Budapest day trip

Josiane_P, Apr 2023

Our driver Petar arrived early and was very courteous. He dropped us off at Budapest Castle and gave restaurant recommendations. The views from the castle were spectacular. Unfortunately, one family member sprained their ankle and we had to cut the visit short. Petar was able to pick us up within 20 minutes, took us to different pharmacies to get supplies. He was very accommodating. In addition, the communication by Viator was excellent. Contacting us several times ahead of the trip. The day before they called to give us the driver's name and phone number. I would definitely recommend this company for your trip needs.

Perfect Day!

Julie_P, Dec 2022

Very friendly; our driver let us set the agenda of where we wanted to go and how long we wanted to spend at each location. It was the perfect day! So much better than walking around in the cold, rainy weather!
