What an amazing sight seeing tour - we would highly recommend! This must be one of the best ways to tour the beautiful city of Budapest. It was so much fun doing the tour in a Jeep… We absolutely loved it!! The vehicle was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed driving down many interesting, smaller streets where larger vehicles couldn’t go and of course got to see the major sites. Our guide Zsombor was fantastic - he was knowledgeable, friendly and extremely professional. The small step to assist our elderly parents in and out of the vehicle was thoughtful and appreciated. All 4 of us loved this tour - a real highlight of our European trip!

This was a fabulous way to start a city break in Budapest. Jon Paul was very knowledgeable and friendly and as well as playing useful information recordings he shared his own personal knowledge. The best part of this trip is being able to be taken to all the best sights and being dropped off with zero effort and picked up again. No waiting for open top buses, no being herded onto coaches, fantastic! Highly recommended.

Great quick way to get your bearings and see all the main highlights Budapest offers. You can then decide which ones you’d like to visit for longer. Also ideal if you prefer not trudge around on foot. Guide was courteous and drove calmly.

We recently embarked on an unforgettable Jeep tour in Budapest. Our adventure began as we climbed into the jeep, ready to explore Budapest's hidden gems.  From the moment we were picked up by our friendly and knowledgeable guide, Zsombor, to the breathtaking sights we encountered along the way, it was truly wonderful. We navigated through iconic landmarks including a visit to the Buda Hills, for a panoramic view of the the Danube and the city.  If you're looking for an unforgettable way to explore Budapest, I highly recommend this Jeep tour.
