Tours

Guided tour #1: Standard Budapest sightseeing tour

Duration : 1 day
Level : medium Medium
For the first time – the standard sightseeing tour gives You a general impression . Within 3 or 4 hours You can see the highlights of Budapest. A tour on the Pest side (visiting Heroes' Square, City Park and the downtown) with a few stops to take pictures, a short walk in the old Castle District, a view from Gellért Hill. For sporty adventurers I recommend the tour by public transport – a bit longer but fun and definitely less expensive!
3-4 hours by car or walking/public transport

Guided tour #2: The Best of Art-Nouveau

Duration : 1 day
Level : medium Medium
Looking for something unusual, still so typically Hungarian? You are in the right place! There is a bulk of marvelous Art-Nouveau architecture (also called national style) in Budapest: Museum of Applied Arts, Post Office Savings Bank, Gresham Palace&Co. Finely decorated villas and public buildings scattered all over the town. A sightseeing with several short stops. A further option: we can give other tours or walks an Art-Nouveau „touch” - You can also find examples near Parliament, Andrássy Avenue or in the city center.

Guided tour #3: Walk along the Buda Castle

Duration : 1 day
Level : medium Medium
If You are more interested in the history of Budapest, go for a walking tour in Buda Castle. In this medieval part of our city almost every house has a story. The most frequently visited sights are Matthias Church and the romantic lookout Fishermen's Bastion, but I also like to show the many little streets and mansions behind, the remains of the old fortress walls and other hidden treasures like the underground labyrinth of over 20 kilometres. There is a breathtaking view from all sides. This year's special: visit the recently opened Hospital in the Rocks from WW2!

Guided tour #4: Gödöllő

Duration : 1 day
Level : easy Easy
Gödöllő – The 18th-century Baroque palace was the favourite residence of Sissi (Hungarians consistently call her Queen Elisabeth), where she could hide away. Far from the Viennese Court and among her „most beloved Hungarians”she liked to stay here so much. The palace invites to a journey in time – relics of a lonely life and love for a free-spirited, extraordinary person. The reconstruction of the palace, in which Soviet barracks and social apartments were located, shows what an incredible effort Hungarians make to save their cultural heritage.
