Budapest Danube Cruise with Drink, Audio Guide

RaphaelGal, May 2026

Nice clean boat ride, fit for kids

We were with 2 small kids and chose to go on the last cruise before sunset The boat was fairly empty and we very much enjoyed the ride We were offered several options of drinks with some kind of extra lemonade drink at the end. Each seat is equipped with a headset and a way to select a language for an audio guide of the areas we passed. The boat was particularly clean and spacious compared to others we saw. We were able to bring a stroller on with no issue. The waiting area was nice as well with bathrooms in addition to those on the boat.

This tour was great. John...

This tour was great. John was an excellent guide. He is very knowledgable about the history and culture of Budapest. It is a perfect way to get around to all the top sights. Good information is provided and the open vehicle works well for viewing and for taking pictures. We would highly recommend it.

Carol_S, May 2026

Amazing experience

We had an amazing experience on this tour. Paul, our guide, was outstanding from start to finish. He shared fascinating insights, answered every question with patience, and made sure my mother and I felt comfortable and included. His deep knowledge and friendly attitude truly brought the experience to life. The pace was perfect, allowing us to enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. You could tell he genuinely cares about what he does. Thanks to Paul, this tour was both educational and fun. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable and well-organized adventure. We would book another tour with him.

Private Budapest TukTuk Tour: Custom Route, Hotel Pickup

Edward_E, May 2026

A must when in Budapest

A must tour when visiting Budapest! Beats a walking tour, hands down! Paul, our guide, was super knowledgeable of historic and folklore facts, and presented the information for each location in a very entertaining fashion, along with additional notes as he drove from one location to another. Stops for pics, chimney cake, restroom and look around. A super experience. Later we hopped on the boat down the Danube along the city line while sipping wine. Wonderful way to spend half a day and take in this beautiful city

Guided Tampa Sightseeing Tour in a Deluxe Street Legal Golf Cart

Janet_R, Apr 2026

Very informative!

It was 2 hours and we saw so much! Hyde Park is the star of the show! Only negative is the golf cart needs rubber bumpers on the ends where the bolts connect to the seat in front of you. Getting in and out I smashed my knees 3 times and it was horrible pain. I’m 5’8 and it was hard not to hit them.

Budapest All in One Small Group Walking Tour with Strudel Stop

Ann_K, Apr 2026

If you only have a short time in Budapest this tour is a must!

Monica is the best! We covered so much ground all with expert guiding, great story telling and excellent grasp of Budapest’s vast and complex history. This tour combines walking and use of the subway system which means you will see sights on the Buda and Pest sides of the river. The stop mid tour at The historic Strudel House allowed us to sit comfortably and sample sweet and savory strudel with coffee. Thank you Monica for a great tour!

Budapest Evening Cruise with Drink Options

Geoff_E, Apr 2026

Great way to see Buda and Pest from the Danube

Very relaxed evening cruise with free flowing Prosecco, no delaying tactics to limit your access to the Prosecco, full bottles put on your table and replaced as soon as they were empty. Great opportunities to take photos as the buildings were illuminated as the sun set.

Budapest Highlights & Hidden Gems – Private Luxury Experience

Anthony_P, Apr 2026

Amazing private luxurious tour. Worth every forint.

This tour might seem expensive but it is worth every penny. We were met in our hotel reception by our driver/guide Arkos who was extremely friendly and guided us to our beautiful BMW 7 Series vehicle with complimentary water which was very welcome. Absolutely luxurious vehicle and very clean and comfortable. We advised that on previous days we had already been to a number of places listed on the itinerary and he explained that as this was a private tour we could decide where we wanted to go. We wanted to spend the most time on Buda side as we love history. Fortunately Arkos has a degree in history and his knowledge and enthusiasm in sharing this knowledge was outstanding and made the tour so much more interesting. He was genuinely happy to be showing us around and he so loved his job. An absolute gentleman and scholar. He took us to places that you would never find on your own. A reflection of his local knowledge having been born and bred in Budapest. We ended our tour on the Pest side of the city which gave us ideas as to where to visit the next day. The four hour duration went very quickly and we wished that we had booked for longer. Great that we could pick our own itinerary and how much time we spent in each location. Thoroughly recommend this company and especially Arkos as your guide / driver.

Buda Castle District Dark History, Legends and Vampire Night Tour

Wesley_M, Apr 2026

Very enjoyable and...

Very enjoyable and entertaining host, with plenty of history and other tails to share. Be prepared for a hike, including several sets of stairs (have to climb the hill to the palace at the top), but you’ll get a nice nighttime tour of the area, and some great nighttime views of the city.
