Free Tour of Buda Castle District

Duration: 2h and 15min

Quality Verified Registered on August 09, 2018

If you're interested in taking a historical tour that just involves memorizing dates and facts that you'll forget in no time, then we might not be the right tour for you. At Go Zeppelin Tours, we believe that truly experiencing a new place is just as important as learning about it. Our team of guides are all accredited by the government of Hungary and are passionate about Budapest. We tell the story of the city in a unique way that will make you think about history from a different perspective. Of course, we will give you dates, facts, and tell you about important figures and events, but we'll also talk about politics, art, religion, and some of the most controversial moments in Hungary's history. Our goal is not just to teach you history, but to help you understand it. We know that it's hard to retain all the information from a tour, but we want to make sure you leave with a deep understanding of the city. By the end of the tour, you'll have a real and unique point of view of Budapest, far from the idyllic and fictional image that most tourist guides offer.

Éramos un grupo de 4 que habíamos hecho una reserva por recomendación de otro grupo y al parecer la aplicación lo ha detectado como dos reservas conjuntas por lo que hemos tenido que pagar obligatoriamente 8€ previos al tour, sin ni siquiera poder valorar lo que íbamos a pagar segun nos hubiera gustado el tour. Esa política de la empresa es vergonzosa, puesto que en el tour éramos más de 30 personas y nosotros por ser dos reservas de 4 que encima íbamos por separado hemos tenido que pagar más que el resto.
