we used public transportation for free which was great. it's impossible to do everything that's included in the card so we had to be selective, we used the castle bus, went to the tower and the. to one of the castle museums which was very impressive. we also went to a photography museum and then ran out of time to do more things! great value for money

Highly recommended tour with an excellent German-speaking guide! He reacted calmly to our delay, was immediately available by phone and led the tour very professionally, entertainingly and with the right sense of humour.

It was worth it. Everything was very organized and we were served quickly. Many free admissions and discounts to museums, thermal baths, etc. I highly recommend

You can see a lot with the Kart and it's easy to drive around the city. During two days we visited many places in Budapest.

Perfect day, excellent leadership, extensive expertise, space-time/management balanced, conclusion: definitely do it
