In Budapest Tours we are a group of professional and accredited guides, with degrees in Art History, Geography and History; and with extensive experience in the sector and a passion in common: Budapest. We work with professionalism, honesty and transparency to show the best that this imperial city offers from a critical point of view, beyond a simple photo. With us you not only have a guide but a host, a helping hand, someone who can show you this city with the love it deserves. We think in yellow and that implies that we are guides of the 21st century. That is why we like to establish a relationship of closeness and trust between travelers and guides. This is achieved by respecting the traveler, and for him we believe that having small groups is the most sincere way of transmitting knowledge and feelings so that your trip is filled with experiences and anecdotes to tell you when you return home. Our aim is that you live Budapest with the same love that we live it every day.

Tour description

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yW5iPGHT4rg


Art, history, myths and legends are found in the mythical Buda Castle, erected majestically over the Danube.


Come and visit it with us. Within its walls are both the Royal Palace and the medieval city, both listed as World Heritage sites by Unesco, and during the visit we will see, from north to south, absolutely everything.

Also in our visit you can not miss a visit to the famous Ruszwurm pastry shop, or enjoy the spectacular panoramas that the Fisherman's Bastion and other secret viewpoints will offer us, which will be a delight for photography lovers.

It is very important to keep in mind that the Buda Castle, due to its fundamental geo-strategic position, throughout its history has passed through different hands (Hungarians, Ottomans, Austrians, etc.).

So the many times that has been built and rebuilt makes the presence of a professional interpreter essential to understand its evolution.

Este fue el segundo tour que nos tocó hacer con David durante nuestra estancia en Budapest y al igual que el primero (Histórico/Fundamental) estuvo fenomenal! El contenido del tour es muy bueno y todas las historias que David tiene por contar lo hacen super ameno. El mejor tour para conocer la parte de Buda!
