Ciudad muy bella que vale la pena recorrer a conciencia para disfrutarla.
El guía hablaba español por lo que fue de gran ayuda para interactuar y aprovechar al máximo el día.
Muy recomendable para los que no disponen de varios días de estancia en Budapest.

Emise, the guide, had a very nice and friendly personality. She was a very knowledgeable person. We got so many cultural information from her about the city during the tour. And she had a very interesting way of explaining things we asked about the city. She showed some hidden gems not known to may people visiting the city. Emise was accompanied by Imre who were driving the van. He knew the city very well, knew nice spots and how to drive there from interesting angle/views. All in all, it's a good tour and a very recommended one! ????????

Our whole experience with Budapest Urban Walks was fantastic from start to finish.
I emailed in advance and was given great advice about what to book. We booked airport transfers and Peter was waiting for us at the airport, took great care of us and safely and quickly got us to our hotel.
Next day we took the Budapest Greatest Hits Full Day Private Tour By Car as we were a group of 4 including my parents (in their 70's). Peter drove us safely around, always on hand to pick us up, and Ferenc was absolutely brilliant with his knowledge of Budapest and its history. He could answer any question we asked and made sure he tailored the day to our liking. He made it fun, interesting and we felt like we were with a friend rather than a tour guide.
We also booked the Ruin Bar Tour a couple of days later, and had a great night with Ferenc again. We definitely think the experience is much better with a local than going by yourself - we'd never have tried all those places!
A couple of days later, Ferenc took us back to the airport and it felt like a family member was waving us off!
We couldn't have asked for anything more from Budapest Urban Walks, and Ferenc & Peter in particular. Thanks guys, we loved every minute!
