Der Tourguide (Gabor) war sehr freundlich, cool, informativ und witzig und hat sich sehr viel Zeit genommen sämtliche Fragen rund um die gesamte Budapester / Ungarische Historie zu beantworten und uns verschiedene Tipps für Budapest zu geben. Ich kann diese Tour auf jeden Fall sehr empfehlen.

Sehr entspannter und informativer Rundgang durch das Burgviertel in einer netten 6er-Gruppe. Gabor hatte auf alle Fragen, sowohl die Historie, als auch das aktuelle Leben und Zeitgeschehen in Budapest bzw. Ungarn eine Antwort. Das Sahnehäubchen wäre noch eine optionale Innenbesichtigung der Matthiaskirche gewesen.

Unser Guide Gabor war sehr bemüht und wirklich nett. Besonders gefallen hat uns, dass wir auch abseits der touristischen Routen unterwegs waren. Er gibt Hinweise über besonders geeignete Fotospots. Man bekommt einen kurzen Überblick über die Geschichte und wird auf "Kleinigkeiten" (z.B. kleine Bronzestatue) hingewiesen, die einem vielleicht gar nicht auffallen würden. Wir haben auch die Tour durch das jüdische Viertel bei ihm gebucht und für uns persönlich war das die perfekte Kombination. Besonders nett sind auch die Restaurant Tips von Gabor. Wir haben 2 ausprobiert und waren begeistert! Wenn ich könnte, würde ich 6 Sterne geben.
