Great tour focused on our needs. - This was the first tour we took upon our arrival to Budapest. Our tour guide, Judith, met us at our hotel and showed us how to use the public transportation system (so useful). The tour was a wonderful overview of the important sights to be seen in Budapest. Lastly, she took us to the Market Place and indicated which food stand sold an authentic Hungarian meal. She also pointed out some exclusive Hungarian items in the Market.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour! - Our guide Danny was personable and very knowledgeable. The Royal Palace, Matthias Church and Fishermans Bastion were impressive on their own, and there were spectacular views of the Pest side of the city. There was a lot of territory to cover and Danny was very patient with me because I was not moving well. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour.

Private walking tour - We had such a wonderful private tour of Budapest with Sabor. He was so knowledgeable sharing all the history of Budapest. It was such a relaxed calm way of exploring all over. Sabor was was very friendly and easy to chat with. We especially enjoyed our coffee and traditional pastry in a wee out of the way coffee shop with him.

Great tour guide makes a difference - The tour itself was fine but we had not realized that so much of the “castle” was just remnants of former castles that are being rebuilt or were turned into other things. What we really liked was out your guide, Denye (spelling?). He was extremely engaging and had interesting stories about everything we saw. He even brought us into a grocery store to give us a primer on paprika and Hungarian wine and spirits. He made what could have just been an average tour a very good one.

Awesome tour of Buda castle - Laszlo was an excellent tour guide! He gave a wonderful tour of the Buda castle complex to our family of four. His commentary was lively and interesting. Highly recommend this private tour for an in depth tour of the Buda side of Budapest. The entire tour is a walking tour, no transportation is needed or provided.

Incredible tour, 100% recommended! - Peter was one of the friendliest and most knowledgable tour guides we have ever met. We visited 3 countries this time we traveled to Europe and this tour was definitely the best. The tour is very well paced and since it was only us on the tour, Peter tailored it to our interests. Amazing stories and beautiful buildings. Thank you for the experience!

good stories, friendly company and personal touch - Great tour! Daniel was an amazing guide, perfect english, funny and informative. Our tour was very well-paced. We loved the personal touch of a private tour and it was great to have someone pick you up from the hotel. We used public transportation which in Budapest is one of the best I we have ever experienced. Definitely worth it and strongly recommended!
