What are people saying about Budapest

Steven_O, May 2026

One of the best ways to explore the city

The Budapest Highlights Bike Tour was one of the best ways to explore the city. The tour covered a fantastic variety of sights, from the major landmarks and beautiful riverside views to interesting neighbourhoods and hidden corners you might otherwise miss. Our guide made the history of Budapest really engaging, mixing fascinating historical background with fun local stories and insights. The bikes were comfortable, the atmosphere was friendly, and the whole experience was both informative and enjoyable.

Fascinating Wine Tasting and Education

What an interesting wine tasting! A map showing the wine growing regions, a lot of information and thoughtfulness from the guide, and really interesting Hungarian tastes complemented the tasting perfectly. I can't remember a more informative and fascinating tasting. This was such a wonderful and educational evening.

Budapest Highlights & Hidden Gems – Private Luxury Experience

We had a private luxury...

We had a private luxury sightseeing tour in Budapest and visited Szentendre, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. Our guide, Christine Teplan, was fantastic — incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and made everything feel easy and personalized. You can tell she really knows the history and the area, but she explains it in a way that’s interesting, not overwhelming. I would absolutely recommend her. Our driver, Laszlo, was also great — very professional and made the whole experience smooth and comfortable. Szentendre itself was charming and a perfect escape from the city — beautiful streets, relaxed atmosphere, and great places to walk, eat, and explore. Overall, it was a seamless, well-run experience and I’d absolutely recommend it.

Private Sightseeing Tour using Electric Tuk Tuk Ride in Budapest

Best way to see Budapest

Daniel showed us all sides of the city he loves with the perspective that only a local can give. His Tuk Tuk was quiet and clean (it’s electric) so no fumes and no noise from his engine. Daniel is personable, accommodating and knowledgeable and that Tuk Tuk got us in and around little streets in a way no car could. We were safe, comfortable (thanks for the blanket!) and, afterwards, felt we had a far better sense of what Budapest is about than we did when we got started!

Personalized, seamless, and enjoyable.

Gabriel was extremely attentive and easy to communicate with. Our tour was in English and he was fluent. We requested to focus on heroes square and we were shown that and more. It was a seamless and easily personalized experience. Gabriel also was flexible with pickup as we were doing this tour while staying on a river cruise ship which changed dock locations overnight. Communication was via WhatsApp and simple. Definitely recommend.

Insider Perspective on Budapest

Anita was delightful. She was so knowledgeable and took us to unexpected places we would never have found if we toured on our own. She also gave us phenomenal recommendations for restaurants, public transportation, and other sites to visit during the rest of our stay in Budapest. Anita was relaxed and so hospitable. We are still eating leftover strudel from our tour.

Leisurely Private Walking Tour with Diana

My wife and I spent three days in Budapest. Arriving in the morning from Prague, we had a 2 pm private tour that lasted about 3 1/2 hours. We walked from St. Stephen (Istvan) Basilica on the Pest side of the Danube (Duna) across the bridge to the Buda side. What we enjoyed was the leisurely pace since it was a private tour, yet we saw so much: the Parliament, Budapest Castle and all the buildings of import as well as some of the other important sights such as the shoes memorial on the Danube commemorating the shooting of thousands of Jews killed by the Nazi-aligned Arrow Cross party. The architecture of Budapest is spectacular and Diana pointed out the significance of the various sites. Highly recommended walking tour.

Hungarian Wine Tasting (with Cheese and Charcuterie) in Budapest

Dawn_J, Jul 2025

Authentic Hungarian Experience!

We attended the 3 pm tasting with 5 wines. It was all held in English. Each wine was paired with meat and cheese. The sommelier was knowledgeable about Hungarian wines and the history and evolution of the grapes and their regions. We met people from UK, Poland, and US. The atmosphere was festive. We enjoyed the wines more than we expected to, and left feeling like we knew a little more about Hungry.
