Alexandra was excellent. She helped us understand how to navigate through town for the rest of our trip. She provided historical information about the many beautiful building, churches and landmarks.

Budapest highlights plus pointing out things you would walk past

We loved learning about all the historical background of Budapest and the county of Hungary starting at the riverfront and walking through the city. With Petra stopping along the way to tell us stories, it allowed for us to ask questions and clearly hear and understand so much more about the people and the deep history in Hungary. We stopped for pictures along the way, and even went to a Strudel Shop and tasted local authentic strudel. It was definitely the highlight of our time in Budapest. Petra was informative, funny and full of information and suggestions of what to do after the tour. We would highly recommend this tour!

Our driver communicated clearly with us and was prompt and gave perfect instructions on where to meet. I was so impressed that when we were bumped off of our flight at the very last minute and arrived six hours later on a different flight, he still picked us up and didn’t cancel. He was so nice about the whole thing and we were so grateful he worked with us on the last minute arrival time change! Highly recommend!

Budapest Romantic Private Tuk Tuk Tour

TINA_D, Aug 2026

Best idea ever!

We had walked for hours several days in a row. This was a pleasure to have a day off our feet. We had a wonderful guide/driver MARTIN.. MARTIN took us all over Budapest. We would’ve never seen all the sites we got to see in the three hours of that tour. It was Great! I believe MARTIN made it an even better experience for us with his professionalism, kind, calm and caring demeanor. MARTIN was able to maneuver that TUK TUK with precision. We want to Thank Tuk Tuk and mostly MARTIN for making this a memorable experience for us.! I would recommend this to anyone visiting Budapest. This would be great for people that can’t walk all day, they would have the luxury of seeing a lot of Budapest even more than they’re walking friends. Either way if I come back to Budapest. I will definitely do a TUK TUK tour again, and I would recommend it to anyone visiting.. it’s fun!

Essential Walking Tour

Susanjselby, Jan 2026

This tour IS essential for first time visitors.

Zoli , our fabulous guide, was great! Animated, full of knowledge and also had all those little facts and antidotes we all love. As we visited Buda and Pest, expect a fair amount of walking and we also used the metro and bus. For info, over 65s can travel for free, you just need to carry ID, I had bought a 3 day pass Like many, we book a tour to both learn and help us decide on where we want to visit afterwards. You’ll be spoilt for choice, Budapest has a fascinating history and surprisingly tough rules for drivers! Thank you to Zoli for a great afternoon
