Excellent quality of bikes, comprehensive itinerary and knowledgeable guide! Karoly was incredible and we had the chance to see most of the city's landmarks, we even stopped for a hot beverage to take shelter from the cold weather.

Book this tour if you are coming to Budapest! We covered so much ground - far more than you could on foot. The bikes were a dream to ride (especially uphill!). Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and we learnt lots about the history of Budapest. Thank you!

Wow, great to hear/read! Thanks a lot!

It was a fun, fast paced tour with a very knowledgeable guide, Thomas. The bikes are incredibly easy to ride and well balanced. We felt totally safe riding along the city streets and we covered a lot of territory in the 3 1/2 hours. I would highly recommend this tour!

Response from Host, Oct 2025
Hi Tom, thanks for participating!
Michael_G, Sep 2025
Balint (sp?) was a fantastic tour guide! We had a group of 10 representing multiple countries. Balint made sure to safely keep us together while providing a great mixture of history, personal reflections and experiences, and humor. We covered a fair amount of both Pest and Buda. Excellent tour- highly recommend!
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Many thanks to you Michael! And yes, the spelling of "Balint" is totally correct. Have a nice holiday,
Dawn_B, Sep 2025
Excellent overview of city. Really great bikes, very smooth and powerful, made light work of getting up the hills!
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Thank you, Dawn!
Diane_K, Sep 2025
An excellent way to see Budapest.. both sides.. you cover so much more of the area on an e-bike. Plus the advantage of going up hills with ease.. impossible to see as much on a pedal bike.. worth the extra!!!
Oliver was a great tour guide with lots of interesting information, humour, was clear (Great English) you will be lucky if he is assigned to your tour.. Bikes were great too!
An awesome way to see Budapest… worth it!
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Thank you, Diane!

Dana_L, Jul 2025
This is a great activity to get acquainted with Budapest. Out tour was a small group of five. Dori was our tour guide and gave us a great tour of Budapest. The bikes were very nice e-bikes which made riding them very easy. Dori made sure we were with her during our ride and stopped if someone got behind. The tour included both the Buda and Pest side of the Danube. It was very nice having the e-bike when going uphill to the castle on the Buda side. I would highly recommend this tour!!
Response from Host, Jul 2025
Dear Dana, thanks a lot, we have forwarded your feedback also to your guide, Dori! Kind regards, Thomas

E bikes were easy to use and the tour guide was friendly and informative. Great way to see the city of Budapest
Response from Host, Jun 2025
Thank you for joining our tour!
Mary_S, Jun 2025
A great and comprehensive tour that takes you all throughout Budapest. The e-bikes made going up any hills a total breeze. That along with all the stops makes this a fun but not strenuous activity.
Budapest also does a nice job separating bike lanes from traffic. I never really felt like I was in any danger and we very rarely had to bike close to motor vehicles.
Response from Host, Jun 2025
Dear Mary, many thanks for this feedback!
Andrea_P, May 2025
Guide very knowledgeable and interesting.

Response from Host, May 2025
Thank you for your recommendation and for bearing the rain with humour!
Dewi_P, May 2025
I love this e-bike tour. It's a good quality bike
very comfortable and looks very nice ast the same time. Thomas., the owner is very well organized and respond to queries on the timely fashion.
Oliver, the guide for this tour is a very personable and knowledgeable about the history of Hungary. This is the other best way to explore Budapest. Olie made this tour much more interesting. He did above and beyond. I recommend this tour for anyone visiting Budapest and who can ride a bicycle. Thank you Thomas and Oliver.
Response from Host, May 2025
Many thanks to you! Also in the name of Oliver!
Alison_W, Apr 2025
