What to expect
Exciting introduction to Budapest in 150 minutes
Meeting in the heart of the city, we will take a walk through the most significant locations of Pest and Buda. We will not forget to look into corners hidden from tourists' eyes and see the real life of Hungarians, as well as search for mini-sculptures.
During the walks, we talk about key events in the city's biography, but we do not overload you with dry facts and dates. After the tour, you will understand why the capital of Hungary is unique and how to maximize your enjoyment of your stay here.
