About this experience
This is the perfect route for those who want to see everything at once: I will guide you through Budapest's Golden Circle, so you can see both the main symbols of the city and the quiet yet curious alleys. The content of the walk will also delight any traveler, as I will not only tell you about the landmarks, but also share proven tips on what, where, and how much things cost!
What to Expect
Top Attractions of Budapest:
In the itinerary, you will simultaneously see the main attractions and hidden alleyways away from the tourist's eye. We'll meet at the Ferris wheel in the city center and follow Budapest's Golden Circle: you will see St. Stephen's Basilica, visit the hidden market of the 5th district, and explore the monument to Soviet liberating soldiers at Freedom Square. You'll take a photo at the pop-up Michael Jackson memorial, marvel at the legendary Parliament building, and learn the somber story of the 'Shoes on the Danube Bank' memorial. I will also show you the continent's oldest metro and take you to the Chain Bridge and the Porcelain Fountains - you won't miss a thing!
Local's Life Hacks:
I will share not only general historical facts about each attraction along our route but also lesser-known and very interesting facts. You will also learn about the lives of local immigrants and useful recommendations for any traveler: such as the prices expats pay at thermal baths and who can get a 60% discount on a massage, or why it's faster and cheaper to take the morning express to Moscow and St. Petersburg. With my advice, I will make your life easier in the Hungarian capital.
