Linda_H, Apr 2026

The tour was perfect. Not...

The tour was perfect. Not too long and not to short. Just the right amount of stops to sample and enjoy some of the traditional foods of Hungary. Our tour guide Emma was very knowledgeable answering our questions and providing the history behind the foods, wine country, and the Central Market.

Budapest: Unlimited Prosecco, Beer & Aperol Spritz Cruise

James_B, Apr 2026

Fun, Great Value, and Informative

This was a lot of fun and was actually more informative regarding information on the sights than our earlier bike tour. We got our money's worth on prosecco, and the tour group was very accommodating, allowing us to take the 9pm slot the same evening after we were delayed arriving to our 7:30pm slot due to traffic closures from protests. Would definitely recommend!

Do not miss this unique experience.

I am 66 years old. Everything hurts sometimes. My knee hurts from running to make a connection to Budapest. My hips hurt. But after I sat in these magical hop beer infused thermal waters of a 2,000 old spa - nothing HURT! Plus terrific Hungarian beer on tap all you want as you soak and pretzels. It was just me - and I’d do it again in a heartbeat. Friendly helpful staff. Do not miss this unique experience .

It was a lovely cruise to end our first day in Budapest. The staff were really nice and welcoming. And the artists were awesome. The musicians and dancers also spent time individually on each table. The food was good as well where we tried Hungarian dishes. I wish if there was more variety but that was a minor point given all the things this cruise had to offer.

Liza_D, Feb 2026

Horseback riding tubing and blue hole combo

This was an exciting and exhilarating tour!! Once in a lifetime for me. I loved the horseback riding and the horses were good and listened well. The tubing was fun and relaxing and you get wet. Water was cold but doable. The blue hole was amazing and I felt like a daredevil a was definitely a bucket list!! All the lifeguards were very skilled and balanced with their feet to help you cross the strong water currents. Our tour guides Jody and Adrian were kind funny and caring and kept our belongings safe in the van. This excursion is a must do!!

Sarah_B, Jan 2026

One of the best wine tours!

This was an absolutely wonderful tour! We ended up on a private tour, as we were the only ones booked for this day/time. Our guide was very knowledgeable, providing us with a thorough and interesting history of Hungary and their wines. We really appreciated the information. We enjoyed each winery and appreciated the uniqueness of each one. Again, we learned so much about winemaking in Hungary. Our dinner was exceptional! We felt like we were visiting our Hungarian grandmother for supper. Very good, home-cooked dishes. We've done quite a few wine tours and this was one of the best!

Budapest Sip and Sail Danube Cruise with Unlimited Prosecco

John_S, Dec 2025

A fun way to see an amazing city

A very nice and fun cruise up and down the Danube which is a great way to see this stunning city. Staff was friendly, boat was nice,drinks were flowing, but I would suggest getting to the boat dock and in the line early as there wasn’t a lot of seating. One other issue was and I’m not sure if this is the app’s fault or the company who operates the tour, but there was no meeting point listed. I had to send a message asking and a few hours before boarding they responded with the location.

Budapest Private Tuk Tuk Half-Day Tour

Debra_P, Dec 2025

Best Budapest Tour!

Robi and Martin were exceptional in the service they provided. They were friendly, very knowledgeable and helpful. It was quite an informative tour! We recommend it to anyone who wants to avoid crowded buses and get close to the Budapest sights. They accommodated seniors with mobility issues, walking slowly with canes. So much fun in the Tuk Tuk!
