Unbelievable experience peddling around Budapest was surreal and what a fantastic time we had. Our guide was so knowledgeable about Budapest, we both learned so much from him that we would never have known without him, we ticked off every place that we wanted to visit in 2 and a half hours (even stoped for a pint) Budapest is the bomb 👍👏🍻

Great way to orient to the history of the country and the country. The guide was very informative and focussed on safety.

Beauty of Budapest and safety first.

This was a nice overview...

Stephen_T, May 2026

This was a nice overview of sights in the city. I saw a lot and heard some history.Did did not go up to Castle Hill which might be a relief since we were on bicycles.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thanks for your nice review. You are totally right. But we show all the major Buda castle Hill sights from a panoramic lookout point at the Danube.

Bike ride through Pest

Brett_H, May 2026

We had a nice time riding around the Pest side of the city with Sam even though the weather was cold and raining. He was very knowledgeable of the city and told many interesting stories and jokes. He rode at an easy pace and it was not difficult to keep up. He made sure we dismounted our bikes during dangerous parts and even asked us if we wanted the short or long ride given the weather, which was kind of him.

Response from Host, May 2026

Very kind, thank you. Thanks to god weather is usually dry and warm in Budapest..

One of the best ways to explore the city

Steven_O, May 2026

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.

Response from Host, May 2026

What a nice review, thanks so much!

Response from Host, May 2026

Thanks a lot. You motivate us more.

Great tour

Martin_C, Apr 2026

Great tour, our lead was very knowledgeable about the town and history. Only having booked standard bike we didn't visit Buda which was not made clear but did not prevent an enjoyable time.

Do this one !

Susann_F, Apr 2026

Awesome

Steve_h, Apr 2026

Great bike tour!

Melissa_S, Oct 2025

We loved our tour with Laszlo. He shared a wealth of information on Hungarian history interspersed with his own experiences growing up in Communist Hungary. He was both funny and contemplative and gave us perspectives and insight we didn't get from any of other activities in Budapest. And we loved getting to see so much of the city so quickly on bikes. Laszlo made this experience truly unique!

Fun and informative

kmcorso, Aug 2025

Great way to see Budapest city highlights. Our guide was really informative. We even played a little scavenger hunt. Had a great time.

Starr_L, Jul 2025

Great tour, got to see parts of Budapest I probably won’t if I didn’t bike. László was great and told fun stories that made the tour interesting.

Fun ride, great tour guide

Yang_W, Jul 2025

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable! We saw a lot, really got a good picture of the city and culture.

Great fun tour!

Emma_J, Jul 2025

Our host was so friendly and fun and tailored our tour to what we most wanted to hear about. We covered so much ground, he recommended even more places to visit we are inspired to return to Budapest to see the bits we missed this time.

Great Cycle Tour

Leonard_F, Jun 2025

Great tour. Basic bikes but in good condition. Tour guide was great, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic. Gave detailed overview at each stage of the Tour, keeping it to the point and interesting. Whole group, which was limited to a manageable size, seemed to enjoy the Tour. Cycling was on flat routes and not challenging. Meeting point was clear and easy to find and bikes kept local, so easy to collect. Would recommend.

Fun guided bike tour

Fiona_R, Jun 2025

Found the meeting slot and bike collection easily. Nice informative guide. To tip, wear suncream, take water and wear a hat! A fun way to explore.

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Thanks! :-)

Lasso is best

Teresa_P, May 2025

Response from Host, May 2025

Thanks a lot!

We booked last minute and...

Jaelen_S, Apr 2025

We booked last minute and I’m glad we did. Very informative tour! My only complaint is we didn’t stop enough to take pictures, we passed some gorgeous buildings but I couldn’t get any pictures of them. Our guide was funny and told us a lot of information about Budapest and Hungary. We never would have known about the mini statues without this tour!

A very wide ranging taste of fascinating Hungarian history

Stuart_B, Nov 2024

Very informed guide with clear and understandable knowledge. Excellent in every way. Our guide brought us all together as a cohesive group meeting everyone’s needs and interests.

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Thanks a lot for your kind comment.

Fun, and informative historical bike tour!

gillian, Oct 2024

The tour guide Veronika (sorry if I spelled this wrong) was fabulous! There was just four in our group and despite some bicycle set backs 🙈 we had a great tour she told us all about the history of Hungary and the meaning of the buildings and statues etc….that we encountered! Would highly recommend in the early days if your stay to give a round up of all the local history and areas! Fantastic experience…..

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Thanks so much.

Excellent.

Neil_K, Oct 2024

Lazlo has a great sense of humor. We loved all his stories. Excellent group. Loved the stories about the little statues and the Hungarian National sports.

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Thanks a lot. Highly appreciated!

Fiona_N, Aug 2024

Lazlo or Luke did a great job showing us around Budapest. Since we were the only two on the tour, we had a private tour of the city which was a lot of fun!

Response from Host, Aug 2024

Thanks a lot, nice greetings, Christian

Great way to tour the city

Inbahl_H, Aug 2024

Lovely guide, energetic and cheerful. Gave us extra time with lovely stops on top of the major attractions. We were also lucky with the weather which was cloudy and drizzling so not as hot as previous days.

Response from Host, Aug 2024

What was missing, so we can get the 5th star.. ;-)

Amazing Way to See this City with Countless Hidden Gems

Richelle_M, Jun 2023

We were surprisingly the only two people on our bike tour in English. Sam was our guide. He asked what we wanted to see and curated our day to our interests. We had mentioned we wanted to try some food and were curious about Ruin Bars. When we got to the Jewish Quarter, he took us into a food truck village where we tried Lángos and then took us next door to a charming Ruin Bar. He still showed us the highlights and we covered a lot of ground in one day. We also really liked the cute mini statues all over the city and thought they were “cute.” He liked that and also included other “cute” sites in the city. He then gave us a list of restaurants and shops to visit that will give us an authentic Hungarian experience. He was the BEST tour guide we have ever had and we take tours in every city we visit. 11/10 would recommend Sam. He made the entire experience.

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Thanks so much, best wishes, Christian

A perfect day for a bike ride.

Bret_S, Oct 2022

Sam was very knowledgeable giving a little history/story at each stop. Sam was upfront saying this was one of his first group tours but was well informed and seemed like he had been doing it for ages. City was easy to navigate and it was a beautiful day for a bike ride. Ours was a small group of 6 which was the perfect size
