Such a fun day - Loved our time with Veronika seeing the sights and sounds of Budapest. She was a lot of fun to walk with and learn about the city. Had some great suggestions at our cake and coffee stop and was very accommodating in tailoring our tour given we had some potential crossover sites on a tour the next day. Loved taking the bus up to Buda Castle and seeing Mattyas Church and everything up there, as well as walking around the bustle of the Pest side.

Book right now! The best tour guide! - Gabriella was absolutely fantastic! I would highly suggest anyone reading this to hire her. She was so flexible and accommodating. The airline lost our luggage and she altered our tour to be indoors during the winter. She is so friendly and knowledgable. I did not know much about the culture and history. She made it all come alive! Also, you experience the bathes. It was truly a highlight of my life! When we visit again, we will be looking forward to more of her wonderful tours!

Amazing Tour! - This is THE BEST way to get to know Budapest. Gabriella was a fantastic host! She met us at our hotel and took us on foot and public transportation to several sites throughout the city, and dropped us off for our afternoon appointment in the castle district. She will work with you and your schedule and give you an incredible introduction to the city. Recommend doing this on your first morning in Budapest for a phenomenal overview. Thank you, Gabriella, for such a great tour!
