Gyuri was our guide from Cityrama . He was knowledgeable, and enthusiastic and ensured our trip lasting for approximately 8 hours was exciting. He provided excellent commentary on the historical background of every place we visited and we enjoyed the trip.

The design of the trip was great
However our guide was terrible.
He was supposed to do his description in Spanish French and English but he never got the description timed right. He would start in Spanish see something say oh yes in English then continue in Spanish never describing things in French or English.
He did not seem to care either he just faced front and spent the majority of the time chatting with the driver.
When we stopped and got off the bus he would describe the instructions in Spanish and then wave his hands at us to go.
At the last stop I finally said we need directions and a time to meet and the he described what we needed to know.
I felt he was very dismissive and really almost upset any time someone asked a question.
And there were two occasions he had the wrong dates. I knew because I started googling information so I would know what we were seeing.
Seeing the cathedral castle and artist town was great but I would say skip his tour you would learn more on your own

Very pleasant full day outing.
Our guide Gyuri did a great job, explaining everything along the way. Since we were a small group he took us through smaller roads and saw great scenery. Nice boat ride back from Szentendre.

Our tour guide, Vera, was excellent and inclusive - she seamlessly switched from Spanish to English, recounting interesting tales and information to our small group on the sites we visited.
The tour took us to interesting places; the Basciilica at Eszrtergom, the castle and views for Visegrad, and Szentendre where we stopped for a couple of hours. Vera was very good at taking us round the sites at each location. The optional self service lunch was acceptable and reasonably priced.
Aspects that were not so good were the fact that we were only told the boat trip would not run after the 24 hour cancellation period had expired (this was due to the high water level that had affected all river cruises for days beforehand) We would have liked more time at the castle or to walk round Esztergom.

Sadly this tour was a complete waste of money. We ended up on a bilingual tour with Spanish and English. Unfortunately for the 4 English customers we missed most of the commentary from our guide because she spoke mostly in Spanish and when she did speak in English the other customers were laughing and talking so you couldn’t hear what was being said or going on. Most tours I have been on I have learnt a lot about the history of the area we visited but this one I learnt nothing and felt very disconnected. The bus was supposed to have air conditioning in it and it didn’t seem to work at the back of the van. My seat belt didn’t work either. The information I have from when I purchased the tickets said it would have a boat ride back. This didn’t happen and no explanation why not. The worst thing was there were some jokes happening in Spanish that we had no idea what they were laughing at. So all in all I was really disappointed and would recommend before you purchase see if it is a bilingual tour or not.

The destinations were lovely and worth a visit. However, our guide, although pleasant enough, was too elderly and infirm to do the job effectively. She walked very slowly with a stick and couldn't climb stairs very well so she briefed us at the bottom of 2 of the 3 stops and sent us off. She regularly lost her train of thought when explaining the history and background on the bus. She also gave poor advice about the cruise which meant we all wound up with poor seats on the return

We loved this tour. The guide was excellent and the info was all so interesting. We had plenty time at all the stops to get photos and see the sights, all of which are stunning. Would highly recommend

We booked this tour through Viator who supported this agency. The meeting was in their headquarters behind the Parliament and we traveled in a comfortable minibus (we were about fifteen people). Excellent English and Spanish speaking guide and equally good driver (Attila). Correct visit times.

The tour had both English and Spanish interpretations concurrently. Can be slightly confusing especially when you have a bigger tour group who needed to wait for the guide to finish, but the guide did such an amazing job!! The stories are great, but the views could have been better due to a gloomy/foggy day (not the agency's fault). Lunch service at the recommended hotel could be better managed, as we had to wait quite a while for the food which lessened our time to explore the place. Otherwise, the overall experience is good.
