Lisätietoja aktiviteetista

Your guide will pick you up from your Budapest hotel and take you to the public transport station (ticket included) to head to the Castle District, where your walking tour takes place. Wander the narrow, medieval cobblestone streets of this UNESCO World Heritage-listed district as your private guide unveils stories, tales and legends of Budapest’s history, culture and folklore.

Visit the Castle District's main sights while getting an in-depth overview of the historical events that have shaped the district over the centuries. You’ll learn how Castle Hill was built and discover its strategic and symbolic purposes as a defense against invasion.

Tour the exterior of Buda Castle (also called the Royal Palace and Royal Castle), and then wander the old cobblestone streets and alleys surrounding the spectacular structure. This is where you’ll explore lesser-known areas often overlooked by most visitors, giving you a more authentic experience of this wonderful part of Budapest. You’ll then head to the center of the Castle District for an interior tour in the Matthias Church. This is one of the most precious buildings in the Castle District.

Your tour culminates with a trip to nearby Fisherman’s Bastion, a fortification atop Castle Hill. From the lookout towers, soak up magnificent panoramic views of the city and the Danube River below.

You will also take a break with coffee and cake in a cosy Café of the Castle District.

An excellent tour of the Castle District we did in mid-July. Balint was our guide for this tour. He did a great job and adjusted things to fit our interests. He was personable and very knowledgeable -- in fact he was able to answer a question I had about Matthias Church that two other guides couldn't answer.

This tour was amazing. Victoria was very professional and showed us/talked about extra things that no other tourists would have seen or heard about without a guide. Very interesting. Would highly recommend!

Brilliant, highly recommended. Viki was full of information and answered all the questions of my 14 year son. So much better than just wandering around on your own. Will do it again when I visit another city

Our guide Tamas was excellent. He was very friendly, knowledgeable and engaging when explaining the history and sites visited. A very worthwhile experience of having your own personal guide.
