Private Walking Tour of Classical Budapest

On this private walking tour, discover Budapest’s timeless, old world beauty — and enjoy a custom, flexible itinerary. To begin the tour, your guide will meet you at your hotel, apartment, or any other preferred location in the city. Depending on your starting point, the route will vary, but you can count on seeing a number of important landmarks while your guide tells fascinating stories about Budapest's history.

One recommended itinerary is to begin the tour in Heroes’ Square, famous for its impressive statues. Venture to the adjacent City Park (and catch glimpses of the beautiful Vajdahunyad Castle) before dropping by the sprawling Széchenyi Bath complex, which is known for its many thermal baths and sunny yellow facade.

Next, enjoy a ride on the Budapest Metro and a stop for complimentary coffee and a soft drink in one of the grand cafes lining Andrássy Avenue (also known as the “Hungarian Champs-Élysées) before crossing the Chain Bridge to the Buda side of the river, where the famous Buda Castle complex is found. You'll want to linger here, given the concentration of landmarks (including the Royal Palace and the Matthias Church), as well as the views overlooking the city. The 4-hour tour ends with a return Metro ticket, which you can use to travel back to your accommodation.
