Some stops for scenic views, and then some stops in the city of major attractions and then free time. - Options for free time given by tour guide Peter were spot-on. We ended up walking along the river and then walking to the market and eating at one of the kiosk type food vendor stands on the upper floor. Peter was an excellent driver and as he used to live in Hungary, he knew the layout of the city with no problems. He was very professional and easy to listen to!

Great tour for a quick overview of Budapest's main sights - Had a fantastic day tour from Vienna to Budapest! Perfect for travellers with a day to spare in Vienna and want to get a quick overview of the main sights of Budapest. Our driver and guide Peter was amazing. He was very knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. He made the day very enjoyable and stress-free. He was very experienced with everything and provided tips and advice to help us through the day. We travelled as a family of four with two youngish kids and everything ran smoothly. The time was a little short to go inside the Budapest Castle but there was otherwise sufficient free time to check out all the other essential sights. I highly recommend the day tour to Budapest with Peter.

Excellent Day Trip —Worthwhile Experience - We took the day trip from Vienna to Budapest, and it was an unforgettable experience! Our excellent guide, Zoltan, made all the difference with his extensive knowledge and passion for the city. He kept us informed about the iconic highlights, from the stunning Parliament Building to the historic Buda Castle, ensuring we were always on schedule. Zoltan’s captivating stories brought the sites to life and gave us a true taste of Budapest's rich culture and history. The day was well-organized, allowing us to enjoy the sights without feeling rushed. Overall, it was a delightful trip, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to explore this beautiful city!

Worth the drive to see Budapest. - It is a long day to drive back and forth, but it was definitely worth it to see the city, at least on the surface. The guide was knowledgeable and friendly and we had a very good time. Small group like this is best.
