“We had a pleasant day with our tour guide Balash. He was very easy going and informative. There were only three people in the group, so we decided to spend the day together in Szentendre after Balash finished his tour. We came back to Budapest around 6pm. Although I enjoyed the train ride there, just a suggestion for the tour company, it would be nice to take the ferry back to Budapest from Szentendre. That way, your guests can enjoy the beautiful views by Dunabe river.”

“The tour was great and a wonderful way to get out of Budapest. I highly recommend it. On the other hand, booking it through trip advisor was a nightmare. We were charged for e-bikes after telling the agent two times that we did not want them and again when we questioned the final price (nearly double what was advertised). The local bike company is great but they couldn’t do anything about it since we booked thru a third party.”

The town’s picturesque streets are adorned with Serbian architecture, and it’s a haven for unique handmade items that you won’t find in typical souvenir shops. Our guide, Sofia, was not only knowledgeable but also made the experience fun and memorable. Highly recommended!”

The 3 cities visited were beautiful each with very different interests. We had a wonderful day touring the Danube Bend and would highly recommend this excursion with Tamas for anyone looking to spend an interesting day outside Budapest!”
