What to expect
Capital architecture in the magical light of lanterns
You will see the Parliament, the city's 'business card', learn its history and the secrets of royal relics that are still kept under the dome. You will walk through Hungary's financial center, visit Freedom Square, and relax during a pleasant promenade along the Danube. Enjoying the fairytale atmosphere of the evening city, you will walk through the central streets and admire the imperial grand buildings and beautiful shop windows on Andrássy Avenue.

Life hacks and the first European metro
In the second part of the tour, you will travel back to 1896 with the 'metro-mobile'. I will tell you when and under what circumstances the first metro in continental Europe was opened.
