Peter was great ! He arrived on time, gave us information along the way about what to expect, details on each attraction and kept a balance between showing us “tourist attractions” and free time to explore the city ourselves. It would have been great to get additional 30 mins to an hour so we could see night view of Budapest. Overall, we had great time !!
