What are people saying about Budapest

Private Transfer from Budapest Airport to the city - arrival

Julianne_B, Sep 2026

Our driver communicated...

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!

Hungarian Wine, Cheese, and Charcuterie Tasting in Budapest

Molly_J, Sep 2026

Great experience! We were...

Great experience! We were delighted to learn that we were the only 2 in the group so Vivian gave us a private tasting. She is extremely knowledgeable about Hungarian wine and also informative about the region’s wine. She is friendly and gave us great recommendations for other tourist sites and restaurants. We had a tipsy time! 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!

Julia_S, Jul 2026

Our tour guide suggested...

Our tour guide suggested starting at an earlier time than we booked the morning of due to the ticket office for the Basillica closing earlier. This would have been nice to know before the day of. Otherwise, Andrea was a great tour guide and very knowledgeable. She was much more authentic than other guides and we learned a lot of history.

Budapest Jewish Heritage Memorial Walking Tour & Synagogue Entry

Don_R, Jul 2026

Excellent tour. Sign up...

Excellent tour. Sign up for the “grand tour” vs the “essential”. You see more of the Ghetto as well as a jewel of a smaller, 3rd, synagogue. The cemetery at the main synagogue is very thought provoking. Take your time. Guide was thoroughly knowledgeable and fluent in English.

Budapest in a Short, Comfortable, and Insightful Tour

An informative tour that blends history, gastronomy, and all the key viewpoints — comfortably from the car, with punctuality and even a good bottle of water included. We stopped at several major landmarks for photos and short stories about each place, which really helped bring Budapest’s history to life. The guide was flexible with the itinerary and managed to offer a clear snapshot of the city’s charm in a short amount of time. If you’re on a tight schedule, this tour covers a lot — fast, intense, and still comfortable. Definitely worth it.
