Our driver picked up my family of four on time at our hotel. He was a quiet young fellow, and was nice and professional. He drove us for nearly 3 hrs to Budapest, where we met our guide, Gabor.
We stayed in the van for part of the tour, and walked around for part of the tour, with Gabor there to show us the sites. He did a fine job, and was friendly.
After our tour, we had time to eat a good meal at a local restaurant, see some sites on our on, and do some shopping.
Then we met our driver, who took us on the return journey to our hotel in Vienna.
Overall, a great experience. My only regret is not having more time (like days) to spend in Budapest, but that's not how we scheduled this vacation. On these types of tours, you are of course limited by time, and only get an overview of the city. If we had days, we could take this tour and then decide from there what we wanted to spend more time doing.
That is no criticism of this tour, but just something to think about if you really want to go deeper in your experience of a destination.
This tour was exactly what we expected, based on the description, and both our driver and our guide were good.
We really liked being picked up and dropped off at our hotel, instead of having to navigate to some location.
Would recommend.
