Enjoyed the tour. An efficient use of the day. Lovely city. Would go back to spend more time.

The driver talks on the phone all the time during the journey._br/_ The local guide in Budapest was only interested in getting us into the shop to buy souvenirs and did not give us the option of going for a coffee when we are not interested in shopping._br/_ We left the hotel at 6:30am without having breakfast and we were not being told that we can only have lunch after 2:30pm. We should be told before hand to bring snacks.

I was a very easy way to explore another country and I recommend it!

The tour was very comprehensive. We have been to Budapest before and had spent a few days there. The tour covered pretty much everything we saw in those few days. The guide Claudia was very well informed and helpful. The downside was that the bus left us at Heroes Square at lunch time. There are very few options there and more so if you are not a meat-eater. Whereas there are numerous vegan and vegetarian friendly cafes in Budapest. The tour can be designed in such a way that people get an option to choose what and where to eat.

Beautiful buildings. I had not know Budapest was larger than Vienna.

Overall, this bus trip was very well organized - including hotel pickup that was very much appreciated. There was sufficient time to see the highlights of this beautiful city including almost 2 hours of free time. While on a guided walking tour on Castle Hill, our guide brought us to a gift store which took about 10 minutes out of our tour appeared that we were expected to shop there. I didn't appreciate this as there were other shop options on the Hill and it would have been better to let us make our own decision. Other than that, the tour is definitely worth it to get an introduction of what Budapest has to offer.

The tour was a great overview of Budapest with a very good tour guide. It was a very long day.

Not really what I expect to see in this trip.

I enjoyed the City of Budapest and this trip made me realize that I need to go back there for a couple days at least. The one thing that kept this from being a 5 star trip was the fact that the guide that was assigned to us in the city did not give us ear phones and hearing her was a real pain. Speaking through a microphone when outside just does not cut it.

This tour to Budapest was very disappointing.

It is a 3.5 hours non stop trip from Vienna but a great trip and worth to try. The hero square is a great place to visit and listen to the history of Hungary. The castle is worth to visit too. The local guide from Budapest was not that good and looked as if she was reading a memorized book while providing guidance. we enjoyed Buda more than Pest. The guide from Vienna was very helpful on the way to Hungary.

Budapest surely is a good place to visit. The bus ride was hassle free meeting up at the state opera. However due to time constraint, a day trip from Vienna wasn't enough. The lunch at the Hungarian restaurant was fantastic. _br/_ A good introductory tour of Budapest.

We took this tour on August 31st which was administered by Vienna Sightseeing. I am disappointed with this tour and would not recommend Vienna Sightseeing to anyone. Our Hotel pick up was at 6:30 a.m. which was delayed by half an hour. Tour started at 7:15 a.m. with an English speaking guide as we had requested. Driving time to Budapest was 3 hrs. Tour guide gave us an hour of commentary on Hungary in English and Spanish. Reached Budapest at 10:15 a.m. They gave a driving city tour for an hour and took us for lunch at 11:15 a.m. though most of us were not hungry. The food was good though._br/_ Following lunch we had a local guide for sightseeing for 2 hrs which includes 25 min shopping break. We enjoyed this portion of sightseeing and history of Budapest. Next, they took us to City Center a large shopping space to explore on our own for 2 hrs. We left Budapest at 4:45 p.m. and came back to Vienna Opera House at 8:10 p.m.

The history given on this trip was incredible. It was very hot and at my advanced years, I found the heat took some of the fun out of the site seeing walking tour. It was up or down the streets of Budapest. I'm sure younger people would enjoy more than older folks. But who knows it could just have been my inability to do such walking.

Nice tour but half the time was spent in the bus, three hours drive each way. I think it should start earlier and last longer so you get a longer time in Budapest, you can allways sleep on the bus . The guide that came with us from Vienna was very good but the local guide not so good. She spent lot of time talkingto her friend andcomplaning about the group to the shopovner in the souvenires shop at the castle. And worst of all making rather lame jokes. Everything was as adverticed, the bus was comfortable and on time. Overall a pleasant daytrip to a wonderfull city.

Very good day tour in every respect including hotel pickup, the air conditioned coach, the guide, the city tours, the Hungarian restaurant and Budapest itself.
