Ride through Budapest in a private motorized tuk tuk with guides such as Norbert, Gabriel, Peter, Paul, and Gabriella.

“Robert picked us up on time from our hotel. He asked our interests and said he could tailor a tour to suit us. In 2 hours we coverred such a lot of the city and had a few photo stops along the way. A few places we would never have looked in ourselves as we were under the assumption we should not enter them. It gave us a real idea of which places we would like to go back and visit ourselves. The 2 hours passed pleasantly by and we were then dropped back to our hotel. A great overview of a new city for us to explore, thanks.”
