Cruise Budapest on a MonsteRoller e-scooter. Small group, guided routes, helmets, and quick stops at top sights, including Parliament and Castle.
“I rarely take time to write reviews but this definitely deserved one. Atilla was an amazing guide, blending humor with authentic Budapest history (we asked a lot of questions and he tackled them all). The scooters were super fun. Good activity for our 16yo, but also pretty easy for wife and I to do as well (we’re both around 50) - they give you a bit of training and the max speed is about 16-17 mph. We took the 3 hour tour, felt like we saw a ton, and had a great time.”
Crawl through Budapest’s Pál-völgyi-Mátyás-hegyi cave system on a 3-hour guided caving adventure with helmets, overalls, and geology talk.
“Highlight of our holiday in Budapest!!!! This was something we promised each other we would never do as it scared us… however towards the end of our week in Budapest we finally caved and booked this activity, not really looking too much into it. Our tour lady was great (THANKYOU!) and we were only a small group - 8 people total. She was very informative about the cave itself and we all had a good laugh. This definitely put our fears of small spaces to the test. Only advice would be to wear shoes you don’t car too much about as they do get dirty. Definitely something to do if…”

Visit Queen Sisi’s Royal Palace in Gödöllő on a 4-hour guided trip from Budapest, with easy transport and time for the castle park.
“the palace is beautiful and the guide was fun and very knowledgeable, the only issue we had was we thought we had an English tour but it was a mix of French and English which meant the guide having to do the same speech and jokes twice. it would have been better to separate the tours I think”

“The class was wonderful. Ben met us at the Central Market Hall, and gave us a great tour along with some Budapest history. After sampling a nice selection of tasty pickled vegetables, and picking up our dinner ingredients, we took a short walk to a local home for our cooking class. Ben started things off by serving us a nice selection of Hungarian salami and cheese for an appetizer, with a local wine and flavored water. Then we got started on our meal, and Ben provided great instruction in preparing an authentic Chicken Paprikash dish, and homemade Nakedli (Hungarian dumplings). The meal was delicious and was accompanied by tastings of…”
