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.

Hike to Julianus Lookout, paddle the Danube Bend, and enjoy private hotel pickup on an active day trip from Budapest.

“Gyuri was a friendly and knowledgeable guide. Hotel pick up and drop off was seamless and the Danube Bend area was a lovely break from the city. I recommend this tour to outdoorsy people. You need to be in good shape for the ~5 mile hike - the first hour is uphill with about 1,200 fr elevation gain - but the kayak was gentle paddling.”
