My husband and I had a great tour far beyond what most would provide with Gabriella. She's genuinely enthusiastic for you to learn about Budapest and share her enthusiasm for the city. We walked and traveled all over even beyond our scheduled time and she put us on the appropriate bus to get back to our hotel which we appreciated as first time visitors. She even purchased 3 different desserts so we'd get a chance to try to cakes the city is known for. It would be hard not to love Budapest!
Very informative about the sights and history of Hungary. Very flexible choices. Would highly recommend this tour.
Gabriella was very personal and knowledgeable. This was an excellent tour and we are very glad we did took this tour the first day in Budapest as it provided an excellent overview of the city and its sights.
Gabriela is the most accommodating guide I've ever met, Viator didn't do a good job in providing my contact details to her, but when I called her the morning of the tour, she came immediately to me even though she never receive any pick-up detail from viator. I was extremely grateful for this! She's so knowledgable and patient, and she shares the history of Budapest enthusiastically and you can see that she's really passionate about her job. What's most amazing about her is she recommends me what to do in the remainder of my stay based on my preference. She's a great coffee-lover and can recommend you the most hidden coffee spots!
This tour was recommended to me by a friend who had visited Budapest earlier and I was not dissapointed. Gabriella was very attentive, educating and made sure that the tour was completely tailored to my interests. Her knowledge and passion for her hometown are essential while visiting Budapest!
