What a Joy - New to Budapest I booked this tour. From the beginning the tour guide, Esther (I think) was an absolute delight. The tour is full of historical information, folklore, beautiful photo opportunities, sad and humbling facts and experiences that if alone I would have missed. Thank you

Wonderful Tour with an even Better Guide! - A wonderful, sprawling tour across Budapest, enriched even more by our fantastic Guide Balazs Levay. He was informative, personable, and spoke with honesty and candidness that I found to be very refreshing. Balazs made a point to speak to every individual/couple/group within the tour at different points, in addition to the group as a whole. I really can't say enough how much he enhanced this walking tour with his candor and approach.

Terrific walking tour, very informative and fun - We had a wonderful time on this walking tour. Our guide, Rebecca, was extremely knowledgeable. We learned about the history of Budapest, some of it quirks, and even the public transportation system. The strudel was also very good. I highly recommend this tour.

Great tour with wonderful guide - We had a small group tour, 7 people total. Our guide Petra was wonderful. She spoke perfect English, was very friendly. She provided a lot of historical and cultural information, we were very happy with the pace of the tour and sites seen. The strudel house that she took us for the tasting was excellent, we had the best strudels ever. She has a great sense of humor, and accommodated our group. Not only all this, but she also gave us some very good recommendations on places to eat and wines to drink. Thank you very much Petra, and we went for the best goulash soup back to the Strudel house, and it was the best.

Fantastic tour, excellent guide - A fantastic 3.5 hours during which we were shown most of the key areas and important landmarks in Budapest. Our guide, Balint, was excellent. He has extensive knowledge but, most importantly, delivers with humour. Totally recommend the tour - a great overview of the city that helps you signpost places to visit again and spend more time at.

Tour without needed audio assistance - The tour guide was knowledgeable. We went throughout the city and had a great experience with the homemade strudel and coffee. That was my favorite part of the tour.
The downside is this tour operator will not use the audio equipment in your ear, so you can hear what the tour operator is saying. They said that a small group doesn't need audio, and the use of such equipment makes you not ask questions or interact with your group. That is so, so, untrue!!! I hate having to stay glued to the operator to hear what she is saying. You miss so much if you stop to take a picture, and they continue to talk while walking away from you. This tour operator was soft spoken, and she needed audio assistance just for this reason alone. Disappointing.
