This tour was well worth the money! While the tour was billed as “private,” I assumed there would be a few other tourists. My guide Katka told me that it was, indeed, a private tour. She usually accompanies couples but since my husband couldn’t join me, it was just me, the guide, and the driver in a small minivan. What an entertaining and informative tour. I only had three days to visit Budapest, so this was the best “ROI.” We toured both Buda and Pest and enjoyed more than 25 sites – in depth – in about seven hours. (Katka was going to host me for another hour, but after covering what we did, I was pleasantly exhausted.)
