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 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 !

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

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

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.

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.. ;-)

Great attitude

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

City bike tour

Tim_P, Dec 2022
Friendly and knowledgeable guides, the tour covers all the places you would want to visit in a morning or afternoon tour.

Good stops with good stories.

Holly_H, Oct 2022
Beautiful day riding around Budapest! Lots of good stories. Great stops. Very accommodating. Would highly recommend this bike tour if you are in Budapest.

Response from Host, Oct 2022

thanks a lot! Best wishes from Budapest! 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

Response from Host, Oct 2022

thanks so much, Christian We always try to offer smaller groups!

Great guide made for a fun, insightful afternoon

Andrew_J, Sep 2022
Had a great time with our tour guide who was knowledgeable and personable. He shared personal anecdotes of living through communism and visiting the US, which provided so much more texture than just visiting key monuments and buildings. He also found ways to make the tour interactive, like sending us on a scavenger hunt in one city square.

Interesting Bike Ride

JAMESW_H, May 2022
The bike ride was more ride a little stop and learn about Budapest’s history. I would have preferred more bike riding but the guide was funny interesting and extremely knowledgeable. I felt like I have a good understanding of Hungarian history

Unique Experience, Wonderful Guide.

John_V, Apr 2022
Lazlo was our guide and he was phenomenal. He shared a lot of personal stories as well as very unique information about the sites and history. We would recommend this bike ride to everyone.

We had a lovely tour with Jitske, she took her time showing us all the sights of Budapest and answered all of our questions. Very informative and fun, would definitely recommend! Thanks! Amy

This is an absolute not to miss...

MICHAEL H, Jul 2016
This is an absolute not to miss activity. The entire bike ride was at a very comfortable pace with many stops to hear interesting facts and fun stories about this beautiful city. Our tour guide, Perrine, was charming and witty. She made sure for the entire tour, that all participants were comfortable and included. This tour is described as a 2 hour tour but you should allow 3 hours if you want the entire experience.
