This is a must do activity. Fortuna was a wonderful guide who gave us so much information about her city and the history of her country while showing us the buildings and monuments included in the tour. It was a great way to start our visit and I recommend it to everyone.

Discover the pearl of the Danube River on our Free Walking Tour of Budapest. You'll explore the charms of the Hungarian capital including Chain Bridge, St. Stephen's Basilica, the Parliament and much more.

Free Walking Tour of Budapest

At the scheduled time, we'll meet you in Mádache Imre Square and set off on our free walking tour of Budapest.

To begin, we'll walk along the Danube River and admire a breathtaking panoramic view as we turn towards Buda Hill. We'll also share some fun facts about the history of the Hungarian people and their beautiful, but difficult, language.

Soon, we'll come to Chain Bridge, which was the first construction of its kind in the Hungarian capital.

As we stroll around the city, we'll see some interesting statues and discuss Hungarian cuisine and its delicious dishes.

We'll then arrive at Freedom Square, where we'll spot some sites that hold great significance in 20th-century Hungarian history. These range from monuments dedicated to the Holocaust and the Red Army. We'll also talk about present-day Hungary's economics and politics.

Our tour will then take us to the Parliament building, which is one of the symbols of the city. This majestic construction on the banks of the Danube River has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is considered to be one of the most beautiful buildings in Europe.

It'll then be time to finish the tour at the Hungarian National Museum. Before saying your goodbyes, you can ask your guide for some tips on what to see during your visit to the city.

It was a great experience. Our guide Lilla is very friendly, very nice attitude to us and has a broad knowledge of the city. She also shared us the historical background and what to eat, where to see. It was amazing to hear about the city from a local. I will recommend this tour, thanks for your guidance!!

Un Free walking Tour es lo primero y más esencial para hacer en cada ciudad que se visite por primera vez. Alex, nuestro guía, hizo el tour dinámico, bien estructurado y con un ritmo perfecto, permitiendo disfrutar cada parada sin que se hiciera pesado. Nos contó historia de una manera amena, entretenida y llena de humor, en lugar de abrumarnos con solo fechas y datos. Además, nos dio excelentes recomendaciones personales sobre qué hacer, qué barrios explorar y dónde comer. Translate this opinion into English.
