“My wife and I were fortunate enough to get this as a private tour. Having a senior moment, I forgot our tour guide's name, but she did a wonderful job introducing us to the lovely city of Budapest, educated us on the history, the culture, the people, the food...it was wonderful! We really only concentrated on one section of the city, from the Opera House to the waterfront, but that was plenty to absorb. We finished with a lovely 1 hour boat ride at dark up and down the Danube. Some wonderful night sites on both sides of the river, and it was a perfect way to end our first…”

“This is a great way to experience Budapest at night! Easy to use scooters and a great route made for a very fun ride around town! We had some minor issues with some of the other folks on the tour who were not very comfortable on a bike of any kind, so I recommend that you can ride a bike at a minimum. If you have any experience with an e-bike, lime scooter, or anything like that, you will have a great time!!!”
