The myth and the beauty of Budapest
A stunningly beautiful tour around the outside of Buda Castle. The views of Pest were spectacular and both the castle and Matthias’s church were sights to behold. Our host, Peter was knowledgable and engaging. His many stories ranged from fact to treacherous myth. Our whole family enjoyed it. Huge thanks to Peter

Highly recommend
Great your and fabulous stories. Bernadette was a blast. It was amazing seeing the area lit at night and getting pictures across the river as well. Mind there are some steps but they are manageable. Very glad we had Bernadette as our storyteller.

Impressive performance
20 people, 2 hours, 1 beautiful city and a stunning storyteller! Noone checking their phone during the whole performance. Fabian left us speechless.

Amazing tour , very...
Amazing tour , very atmospheric and informative while also spooky. Sigmund was a great storyteller, me and my partner didn't get bored for even one second. Be prepared for some walking but the pacing is good and not exhausting. Highly recommend!

Excellent tour - informative and great value.
We attended this tour on 15th September. Our tour guide Pana was very knowledgeable, friendly, and engaging. gave us not only interesting information about the history of Hungary and the buildings in the castle complex, as well as current day life in Budapest. Excellent value for the price. Would highly recommend.

A walk on the dark side of Buda
Fantastic excursion. Bernadette was a fantastic guide, she really through herself into the role and made it an unforgettable experience for all of us. Fantastic story telling paired with amazing views combined for a wonderful walking tour of the dark side of Buda.

An enjoyable tour
We had Fabian as our masterful guide/storyteller and he was excellent! We enjoyed this activity and getting to see more of the Castle District. Note- there are a lot of stairs on this tour, but Fabian pointed out the funicular as an option if guests needed.
