Thank you Flora! - I had a tour guide called Flora! She was amazing! She went at our pace and was soo informative and knowledgeable. You can really tell it’s her passion. She answered any questions we had and also told us about other must go places within Budapest. I’ve been on a lot of tours around the world but this was one I’ve enjoyed the most thanks to her.
