Lovely tour guide with great knowledge. A genuinely nice person with extensive knowledge. Felt a little rushed as Viator took a late booking and didn’t inform the guide until an hour prior.

Best part of my trip!

I spent a day in Budapest, and this was the highlight of my trip. I don’t speak Magyar (Hungarian), and get very confused navigating public transport in countries where I don’t speak the language. This activity required no thinking on my end. Szabolcs picked me up right on time at the location I chose. He then transported me in a very comfortable vehicle to the palace. Along the way, he was very receptive to my multitude of questions about Hungarian history and culture. He is passionate about Hungary and was only too enthusiastic to teach me more about Budapest. The palace of Godollo was beautiful. I was expecting it to be just another Hofburg or Schonbrun. Nope! Sissi (Empress Elizabeth) really made this place her own, and you can see all of her charm in the soft blue snd purple colors throughout the palace. Szabolcs allowed me to enjoy the tour at my leisure. I never felt rushed or as if I had to race to see everything. Following the tour, I ate one of the most delicious cakes I ever had and enjoyed a capuccino while Szabolcs answered more of my questions. On the way back to Budapest, he very generously dropped me off at a different location due to my itinerary (his idea). It was just an amazing experience. I highly recommend this tour.
