Highlights

Want to take the photos of the well known Budapest commercials? Want to see it all from above and get the big picture? It is so easy if you have a local showing you the very best spots! I can take you to the best viewpoints so you can : See the city park from the towers of a romantic and mysterious castle. See the Inner city from the magnificent Cathedral top. See the whole city from the top of a hill that is the closest and tallest in the centre. Some of these points are naturally quite high but do not worry, we will escape the long climbing and the many steps! Instead we will use the quick and comfy ways to access both the Cathedral and the hilltop so you save time and energy. ;) We will start the tour in the centre and finish on the top of the city.

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) .
