Excellent introduction to Budapest! - Our tour guide, Anita, was fabulous! She told us so much about Budapest’s history and architecture, answering all of our questions. She also gave us so many recommendations on what to see, how to get there, and where to eat, all written down for is on the Budapest Locals map she gave us! This tour is a perfect way to familiarize yourself with Budapest!

Wonderful tour presented by knowledgeable guide. - Our guide Anita was fantastic. The history and cultures found in Budapest are rich and extensive, reaching back to the Romans. Her tour guided us through this history in an engaging and enjoyable manner. Her depth of knowledge, tied to the main places and symbols that depict that past, gave is a new understanding and appreciation of Hungary's dramatic past and evolving future.

Budapest did not disappoint! - We had a great time with Bridgette. She took her time and walked us all over the Pest side of Budapest explaining everything along the way. She explained the sites we were seeing and she explained the history behind the sites. She recommended a great place to eat and a great place to shop for all things Hungarian. She spent extra time with is making sure we made it to the correct metro stop. It was a great experience.
