Excellent day trip. Very well organised, knowledgeable and friendly guide, comfortable minibus for the duration of the tour and then returning to Budapest by boat which was a nice way to end the day. I would definitely recommend this to anyone visiting Budapest who wants to get out of the city to see a bit more of the country in a day.
