First up, take in the full-length of the Andrássy Avenue passing the Hungarian State Opera House, the House of Terror, and arrive at Heroes' Square. You can be sure your guide will have all the stories along the way. From Heroes' Square, continue into City Park where you’ll be surprised by a fake castle and the Széchenyi Thermal Bath, the largest and most popular in the city. The trip continues with highlights like the Liszt Ferenc Academy of Music and the Jewish Quarter before diving into the downtown area.  See and learn about St. Stephen's Basilica, largest church in Budapest. In the heart of the financial district lies Liberty Square with a bloody history and a disputed Holocaust memorial. From here it is not far to the Hungarian Parliament Building, a landmark in Budapest. Next, reach the Danube River with a breathtaking view on the Buda side of the city. Cross Margaret Bridge using a nice bicycle lane and arrive at Buda and EuroVelo 6, an international bicycle way along the Danube River. Ride down to Batthyany-Square, take a picture of the parliament across the river, and continue to Széchenyi Chain Bridge, from where you will start to climb Castle Hill. Here the electric support of your bike will show its strength. Admire Matthias Church and the Fisherman's Bastion before returning to the Shoes on the Danube Bank and passing the historical Rudas Bath. At Gellért Hill, see the famous Gellért Thermal Bath cross back to Pest via Liberty Bridge, the most popular bridge in Budapest. Do not miss the Central Market Hall and the Hungarian National Museum before you reach the Dohány Street Synagogue, the final stop on the tour before you return to the starting point of the tour.

Excellent fun morning spent exploring Budapest by e-bike with a guide. Lots of history and information given at each of the many landmark stops. Great way to cover so much of the city in a short time. If you like e-bikes then you should enjoy this. You do go on the roads, but in bike lanes. Helmets provided. Bikes were very nice and saddles adjusted to your height. Nothing challenging and a comfortable ride around. Thank you for a great morning.

På trods af kulden var vi begge enige om, at vi har haft en fantastisk tur rundt i Budapest. Rigtig informativ rundtur i centrum med mange stop undervejs ved de forskellige seværdigheder. Selve cykelturen foregik i et meget roligt tempo, som alle kan være med i - både unge og gamle. Dejligt med et stop midt på turen, hvor vi kunne gå ind og få varmen igen (vi købte varm kakao - så det hjalp uden tvivl også). Virkelig en god måde at opleve byen på, når man cykler rundt i den - kan varmt anbefales.

Balade très enrichissante qui nous a permis de voir une vue d ensemble de la ville. Vélo de très bonne qualité. Notre guide Joël était très sympa et parlait très bien français. Il nous a fait découvrir le parcours avec des anecdotes et repères historiques qui ont donné beaucoup de pétillant à la balade Je recommande Laëtitia
