Must not miss Tour - Very informative , Balazs our tour guide was not only very knowledgeable he was also very approachable and was only too happy to help and answer questions . Balazs had a great sense of humour and was very well spoken and thankfully his english was excellent as my Hungarian is non existant ! My wife and i really enjoyed the not only the tour but Balazs's company and the strudel was also very nice .
The tour gave us a good condensed history of Hungary's vast past and look at the inner citys main historical attractions.
Thank you Balazs you're a star 🌟

Great guide. Great walk. Great history. Great strudel !! - What a fantastic and informative guide Balasz was. His knowledge of his homeland was fascinating.
Although the weather was awful (very cold and wet) we enjoyed it thoroughly.
Some beautiful places to see that you wouldn't necessarily go to.
Highlight of course was the assortment of strudel and lovely strong coffee, which was much needed to get out of the rain and cold !
Ended at the Buda side at the Fisherman's Bastion.
Well worth getting cold and wet !
Would thoroughly recommend to anyone who likes walking and finding out about the history of the place.
Balasz was a star ! Very chatty and friendly.

Greg was ace - Greg, our guide was amazing 👏 really enjoyed the tour and different aspects of it - walking, tram, underground, and bus, seeing both sides of budapest. He explained everything really well, and his secret surprise at the end was great. Really recommend doing this at the start of your trip to get a sense of the city and some great tips for the rest of your trip.
