Tick off Budapest’s most famous sights today – like its oldest hotel, a fortress, a castle and a synagogue. This excursion is three and a half hours long. It begins with a coach ride through the city, ending at Castle Hill. This rather romantic district is crammed with museums, cute-as-a-button churches and teensy cafés. Discover all of it on a guided walking tour, before heading to the famous citadel. This 19th-century fortress has one of the best views over the city. From here, you can see Parliament, Budapest Castle and all eight bridges that span the river – so don’t forget the camera. You’ll return to your ship from here.

Good guide. Maybe a little extra background to historical characters who occupied buildings could have been added.

The aspect of free time was far too long and I’m sure we could have visited other places like a thermal bath, parliament building, etc.

Excellent tour guide. The tour took you all over Budapest. It was a good way to get a taster of Budapest from a very knowledgeable guide.
