Are guide Atilla was excellent. He was very informative and told us a lot of great stories. He even went put of his way to help us out the next day.
We would like to thank you for taking your time to send us your feedback on Viator and for your nice, detailed comment. Attila was honoured to provide you this private tour, thank you for chosing us during your stay here in Budapest. Regards, Susanna
Nora was really a friendly and a funny guide. She made our day an unforgettable experience. We learned so many new things about Hungary which otherwise we couldn't know. The Buda tour lasted more than two hours and covered all of the biggest sights. The Danube river cruise is a must, if you are in Budapest, we could make amazing photos from the river. Highly recommended!
Dear Leo, Thank you so much for sharing these kind words about your experiences. We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed the city tour with Nora and will be sure to share your feedback with her. We hope to welcome you back again! Best regards, Susanna
