The pace was perfect, we had time to look around and enjoy everything. Dániel was friendly, easy to talk to, and full of interesting knowledge about the city. It was a wonderful experience that we’ll remember for a long time!”

The way he intervened history and present living in Hungary/Budapest provided good perspectives and understanding. In the beginning of the tour he gave a 10-minutes run-down of Hungarian history, which made up a perfect foundation for the rest of the tour. Recommendable!”

Drive a classic Trabant through Budapest on a private three-hour tour with communist-era sights, hotel pickup, and an English-speaking guide.

“when I booked this tour, I specifically asked if we were driving the car. GYG asked the operator and this was confirmed plus, we were asked to bring our drivers licence so the assumption of these facts confirmed that we would be driving. at no point were we asked if we wanted to drive, or if we had our licences. we were disappointed particularly as this was the reason we booked the tour. yes, we could have asked the driver/operator but due to the fact he didn't offer, we assumed it wasn't an option.”
