About this activity
A visit to the most famous monuments in the central area of the Hungarian capital: both in Pest and in Buda, on both sides of the Danube. The main attractions of the visit are St. Stephen's Basilica, the Parliament Building and the famous Buda Castle district.
While the tour is mostly on foot, we arrive at Buda Castle by public transport. Tickets for public transport are not included in the price.
The visit lasts 3 hours normally.
What to expect
You will see the attractive square in front of the Basilica.
You will visit the most monumental religious building of the Hungarian capital with several statues and frescoes and the oldest human hand of the world: the mummified right hand of Saint Stephen the first Hungarian king (from 1038). The church is closed for tourists on Sundays because of the religious service.
The majestic Parliament building of Budapest built on the Danube bank in the late 19th Century offers one of the best photo location of the city.
You will take the public transport to visit the famous Buda Castle: first we will explore the panoramic terrace of the Royal Palace with the most beautiful view of the city.
See a beautiful fountain made in the 19th century.
Then we will move from the castle of Buda to the palace of the president with the guards in historical uniforms.
Our tour ends at the beautiful Matthias Church built in the Middle Ages in Gothic style. (The visit inside is also possible after the tour, but it requires an entrance ticket which costs 4 EUR / person to be paid separately.)
As a next stop on the tour you will have the chance to admire one of the most beautiful and fascinating places in Budapest, the Fishermen's Bastion with the famous panorama over the river Danube and the Hungarian Parliament building.
