An Insightful, Comfortable, and Truly Memorable Day! - Our full-day tour of Budapest with Susan was one of the most meaningful and enjoyable experiences of our trip. From the moment we were picked up, Susan was warm, attentive, and incredibly hospitable. My husband wasn’t feeling well at the start of the day, and she immediately made sure he had everything he needed to feel better—such a thoughtful and human touch. With over 40 years of experience in hospitality and tourism, Susan is a wealth of knowledge. Her deep understanding of Hungarian history and culture made every stop on the tour more engaging. What we appreciated most was hearing it all from her authentic Hungarian perspective—she’s refreshingly candid and opinionated in the best way, which added so much richness and depth to the stories she shared. We also stopped for a lovely lunch that completely exceeded our expectations, and despite the heat of the day, the tour was comfortable thanks to the air-conditioned car. If you want a tour that’s personal, thoughtful, and filled with genuine insight, I can’t recommend this experience with Susan enough. She made Budapest come alive for us in a way that we won’t forget.

A must do - Our family of 5 had a wonderful time on the tour. Our tour guide Nora was wonderful and very knowledgeable about the history and Buda and Pest and took time to explain all the sites. She even helped our daughter practice her Hungarian. Some of our favorite sites were Hero’s Square and the Castle in Buda. We had a delicious traditional Hungarian lunch and they accommodated for our gluten and nut allergies. Rounding out the tour was the cruise in the Danube which was incredible to see the sites from the river. We would definitely recommend this tour.

A great way to see Buda and Pest - Susan was a great, local guide. Very informative, friendly and gave us the story behind the story! We were in a car the whole time either, we got out and walked around several sights with a bit of free time. Not sure of the name of the lunch restaurant but, the chicken was delicious. I forgot to inform them ahead of time of my friends food preference but, they were able to accommodate with no issue. A really pleasant day!
