Walking in the Buda castle district was great, and I enjoyed the view when looking from there to Hungarian palimen house

Awesome tour

Brian_D, Sep 2023

Our local guide was very knowledgeable about the city and Hungarian history and culture. He made me want to go back and spend more time in budapest

Ok but not great because of the tour guide

Eric_L, Jul 2023

Budapest is a fascinating and beautiful city, with breathtaking historical sites and vistas, such as the Castle District and Citadel, as well as interesting walking areas in the Past District, Buda District, and along the Danube prominade. Unfortunately, although our guide Agnes was nice and knowledgeable, she rushed us and gave confusing directions several times about when and where to meet, causing confusion and wasted time waiting or finding all group members. Our driver, Duchon, was excellent... Friendly, helpful, and professional, even making sure we could stop at the Citadel lookout (that Agnes excluded).

Tour was cancelled approximately 14 hours before it was supposed to begin. Despite that, I have been receiving daily emails asking me to review the tour experience that Viator cancelled.

The magnificence of budapest

Denise_A, May 2023

The experience of Budapest explained by an excellent guide with a passion for the city and driven by an outstanding driver who was exceptional.

Not A trip I would do again

Murtaza_U, Jan 2023

This tour was not what we expected. The driver, Andrew was great and friendly. However, we paid over $1300 for someone to drive us to Budapest and have one guide, Frank (who really did not want to be there) walk us around for 1 mile around "Pest" for about 1.5 hours and just said goodbye. We never went to Buda nor was the driver knowledgeable. The tour was supposed to be for 12 hours but we were back in 10 hours. It would have been much cheaper if we had taken a train to Budapest and took a hopon hopoff tour.

Driver Andrija was great,...

Marleny_S, Dec 2022

Driver Andrija was great, you need to replicate more of him for your staff! Tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly.

My second time to visit ...

Gary_P, Dec 2022

My second time to visit Budapest and the local tour guide was a little hurried and not outstanding. The driver was excellent.

Best one day trip to Budapest

Fathimath_S, Dec 2022

Me and my family had a good time throughout the trip as our driver was very helpful and our guide gave us a history lesson about Budapest but later our driver took us to the best spot in Budapest which was the I. kerulet

Budapest was worth it- get different driver

Donna_T, Dec 2022

Our driver who I believe was named Damshu, who was from Bratislava, was very unprofessional. Although a safe driver, he shared only his life story and his problems with us for the 6 hours of driving time. He never bothered to share sights we were passing on the road, nor did he offer any historical information. In addition, he never even offered to stop for toilet breaks in either direction. Thankfully, when we reached BUDAPEST, we were greeted by a very knowledgeable tour guide named Angie who was a breath of fresh air to our dismal morning. Wish we had more time in Budapest. But our driver killed the experience.

More driving than touring

Amy_G, Nov 2022

Our tour guide in Budapest was lovely. He brought us to a fantastic restaurant at the end of the tour that was a highlight of the day. Booking was sketchy. We had our trip rescheduled due to attendance numbers. We also traveled in a van with 9 passengers, not the coach bus as advertised. We also did .more driving than walking and honestly the 3 hour tour was not enough to really experience the city. If you just want to be able to say you were in Budapest it is fine. Otherwise I do not recommend this as a day trip from Vienna.

Response from Host, Nov 2022

Hi Amy, thank you for your review. You booked a small group tour with us, not a coach tour. Also, it was 8 passengers on the tour, as advertised. We are glad you enjoyed the guided tour and thank you for your feedback. Kind regards, SuperTours
