• 5Definitely recommend this tour whilst in Budapest a great way to learn about the history and explore the area

  Great guide Andre, showed us around the castle district and explained the history and stories behind the beautiful buildings. Very clear English speaking and welcomed questions from the group. Nice size group and Andre lead us up to the castle in an easy manor, along a path which wasn’t too steep and he paused for breaks along the way explaining the different areas as we went. Really recommend this tour along with others that the same company provide. Whilst it’s a free tour, it’s based on tips and our guide and experience was worth 15 to 20 euros each as we had a lovely morning. Definitely one to do whilst in Budapest!

About Budapest

Budapest joins hilly Buda and flat Pest across the Danube, a grand capital of thermal baths, riverside palaces and lively ruin bars.

On the Buda side, Castle Hill holds Buda Castle, the Matthias Church and the white turrets of Fishermen's Bastion, all looking down on the river. The Chain Bridge crosses to Pest, where the Hungarian Parliament Building stretches along the bank and St Stephen's Basilica rises a few streets inland. Gellért Hill and its Citadella give the widest views.

Top-ranked sights in Budapest: House of Parliament (Országház), Buda Castle (Budai Vár), Chain Bridge (Széchenyi Lanchid) .
