Great experience with a great guide!

Budapest TukTuk was very professional and very easy to work with. Checked in on us before the tour date to assure we had the correct pickup location. We took Budapest by Night private two hour tour with a great guide, Roberto! Before we started and continually during the tour he would ask if we wanted to see more of a location or add some site. Roberto is very interesting and knowledgeable about all the things Budapest has to offer, he went above and beyond what we had expected to insure we had a great evening. We definitely encourage you to book with Budapest TukTuk, I am sure you won’t be disappointed. Ask for Roberto!

Fun Way to see Budapest at Night

Great tour! Picked up outside our accommodations, were taken all around the city, including the beautiful panorama at the top of "Buda" hill. Although it was a chilly night, we were provided thick blankets to wrap up in. Would recommend this for anyone. (Three adults in one tut-tut. We fit, snugly)

Great fun Tuk Tuk

we had our pick up time changed three times but great Email comunication made this painless and the slight worry we had disappeared when the driver finally turned up at our time slot.Our guide was very knowlagable and made our Tuk Tuk journey so much fun .We ended up with some amazing photos and we got to see places we would never of seen.The major plus was that our tour was changed from 1.pm to 6 pm this added to the tour as Budapest by night is extra special and very beautiful.We would recommend this tour as a must do trip when visiting Budapest

Gabriel, the perfect sightseeing host!

On Sunday 1st Sept, for our anniversary, me and my partner booked a private TukTuk tour in the evening and we had the absolute pleasure of it being hosted by Gabriel. From being picked up by our hotel to being dropped off at the Basilica, Gabriel showed us around the city, the castle and took us up to the Citadel as well as giving us some travel advice and recommending places to eat/drink. He was incredibly friendly, intelligent and quite the joker, which my partner loved. He seemed to really know the city like the back of his hand and shared a lot of knowledge of the history with Budapest with us. I couldn’t fault his service at all. The TukTuk itself was comfortable and provided a lot of scenic views, especially since it was at night and everything was lit up - highly recommend to anyone wanting an intimate and romantic activity. The only negative thing I had to say was the brakes were incredibly noisy and after a while this did dampen the experience a little bit, the last thing you want to hear is the sound of screeching every time your host places his foot on the brake. But it was an amazing experience none the less and I would 100% do it again. Thank you, Gabriel!

Wonderful

Just had a fascinating zip around Budapest by night with Ben in his tuktuk. His knowledge of the city sights was excellent as was his command of the English language. He took us to some wonderful viewpoints, including the citadel which is high up above the river. Would not have missed it for the world! Thanks Ben👍

What A Way To See Budapest!

We had the best time on our evening tuk tuk tour with Zoltan. We covered so much ground and were able to see the spots we wanted to see in the perfect light, through the setting sun and into the night. Zoltan was a great guide, with wonderful stories. We really enjoyed his company. And communication with the office was efficient and helpful, making sure we chose the tour that would suit us best. We highly recommend this experience!
