“Our trip to Budapest from Vienna was a total blast! Balaz was the ultimate driver/guide, I cannot praise him enough! He picked us up exactly on time, opened the door for us, gave us bottled water, made sure we were comfortable and that we had our passports. He was amazing as he shared the history of the areas we were traveling through. He was just as amazing in Budapest as he led us through the town explaining and answering our questions so well. He recommended an incredible restaurant and he made sure all of us were safe and comfortable and happy. Such a great guy and a wonderful trip. Once-in-a-lifetime…”

“What an unpleasant tour guide. I think her name is Judit, a blonde lady. I don't want to judge people, but if I am paying $100 for a day, I don't want to spend with a tour guide who is uninterested and lazy. She did her short commentary in English and Spanish on the bus, and talked to the driver the whole way. She doesn't engage with guests and treats them like they are obstacles for her. She complained about the wages being the lowest in Hungary among EU countries, I was just surprised that she has a job as a tour guide and gets paid with this performance in…”
Hike Hungary’s Danube Bend from Budapest with hotel pickup, forest trails, cliff views, a gorge, snacks, and an English-speaking guide.
“Beautiful hike! The views were absolutely stunning. I would say this hike was challenging; I’d rate it hard rather than moderate. So definitely come prepared: pack enough water, food (sandwiches, snacks) and anything you might need for the ~6 hour hike. Hiking shoes/boots are definitely recommended. Be prepared to get your heart rate up for the first half of the trail. The last part is downhill and serene. You’ll feel super accomplished when you complete the hike!”

“Nando was absolutely fantastic! He provided us with insightful and engaging commentary about all the key landmarks in both Vienna and Bratislava. We asked to leave earlier than planned, and he accommodated our request with no hesitation. The road trip was smooth and enjoyable thanks to his friendly demeanor and professionalism. He was attentive to all our needs throughout the day. What truly stood out was his honesty and kindness — we accidentally left a ring in his car, and after finding it, he kindly offered to bring it to our hotel the very next day. That gesture meant a lot to us. This tour was a highlight of our…”

Explore Budapest by bike for eight hours with a helmet, lock, local tips, and the option to ride to Szentendre and return by train.
“The bikes we were given were not suitable for the excursion to Szentendre. They braked even downhill, they did not work properly, the wheels rubbed and the sprockets were not greased, we managed to get there with a lot of effort but we had to return by train. The guy who was in the shop on Sunday did not tell us anything about the bikes not being suitable and when we returned he said yes to everything as if we were stupid, indicating that we should have changed gears. Very poor service. The 3 bikes were the same, they were cheap but they are only good for walking around the…”
