World class experience

George was so knowledgeable and friendly. He brought the city to life through his commentary and helped us grasp the history of Budapest and the Hungarian people.

Great Tour Of Budapest

Published on Jun, 2024

I highly recommend this tour, as it was a great way to see all of the key historical sites in Budapest in 1 day. Our guide, György, did a great job, meeting us at our river cruise ship, taking us to all key sites through a combination of walking, subways and buses, and providing in-depth historical & cultural information throughout the tour.

Amazing Experience

Published on Jun, 2019

We booked Rashad through VIATOR for a private day tour and as we are amateur photographers, we requested him to take us to the best view points in Budapest. His knowledge of the city was detailed and beyond anything we would have expected. He modified the tour according to what we wanted to focus on, he paid special attention to the things we were interested in, and the tour was a first of a kind experience for him also. He was very friendly and humble. It was a lot of walking so wear comfortable shoes but we saw all the main sights in Budapest. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to experience the best of Budapest in one day.

Rashad was the best tour guide I have had in Europe. His knowledge of the city was detailed and beyond anything I would have expected. He modified the tour according to what we wanted to focus on, he paid special attention to the things we were interested in, and explained those in more detail, when we wanted. He was very attentive to our needs and wants for the tour, and in making it a great day for us. His english was perfect, he was very friendly and made my mother and I feel very comfortable experiencing a new city, from the best local perspective that Rashad was able to provide. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to experience the best of Budapest in one day, particularly those with an interest in the historical and cultural background.
