About this activity

You can see the most important sights of the Buda side during this four hour long tour, focusing on the Castle District and the Gellert Hill. I recommend this program those who have only a short time or want to explore the city alone and need just an orientation. During such a city tour you can decide what you want to see more thoroughly, where you want to go back or you can simply measure the distances.
