    Great way to see the city, i would recommend just get the basic 48hr ticket without any add-on as most areas are walkable. Tip: ride the bus all the way first, take pics while on the bus and after one complete rotation pick the destination you want to get off or come back for it on the second day. Remember the red bus rotates more frequent than any other colored bus, never even saw a pink or purple bus just green and red. Ride only on a weekend and bring an umbrella as its gets too sunny unless you wanna bake like being in a beach or it rains suddenly in budapest (iphone weather app is unreliable) it rained hard on us all afternoon even its not on the forecast. Night tours is the same as day tour so save on your money and skip it. Same thing with buda castle ride ( you can skip it).

    If you don't need any guidance, and know English and know how to get along with public transit, just don't waste your money on this useless tour, and take public transportation instead, which is not included and is totally separate. To travel with their buses you have to wait until next tour is on, and go in huge circles!

    Was on Holiday in Budapest. Really enjoyed. Photo shows upper open deck of Hop on hop off City Sightseeing buses. Did feel it was very pricy even with haggling to get price down for family of 4. We took 3 day pass included bus tour round Budapest as much as you wanted. There is only so much time you can spend on a bus. Just be careful, the punters were everywhere in centre of Budapest. Doing there persistent dale talk! Personal ear phones given so could listen to commentary in own language. Clear enough. Two boat trips one day time one late at night down Danube. Said free beer, Goulash Soup & shots in there chosen venues but never used as you would have had to order something else & they looked pricey places. Walked a lot. Would be more inclined to use public transport. Trams, buses, taxi's. Used "Bolt". Downloaded taxi App. Excellent service. Recommend visiting Budapest.

    Someone remove the A's they drew so that the grade is real. Wasted money. A foggy bus, a terrible soundtrack. Fragmentary phrases. The ship is also so-so. The girl guides stretch out a little. Definitely not worth taking this. It's easier to take a walk.

    The service is good but it is true that the bus does not have air conditioning and it is necessary in summer The salespeople are very friendly and helpful.

  • 2/5 Alessandro U. 1 year ago on Google • 14 reviews
    The audio guide contains advertising. The pizza coupon given when purchasing the ticket was found to be valid only until 5pm even though there was no time limit written on it. Earphones are often defective.

  • 3/5 Malvika D. 6 years ago on Google
    Have a 2 day pass with a boatride . They give you a booklet with some discount coupons as well. We did the night tour as well.

  • 1/5 Rolf A. 5 years ago on Google
    usually we love the city sightseeing busses everywhere in the world, but this here in budapest is the worst. unfriendly staff everywhere, totally unlogical lines and colors, bus don’t stop even when requested.

  • 1/5 Kim G. 5 years ago on Google
    Scammers! They take your money and dont give you the tickets. Agressive staf. I should have called called the police.

  • 2/5 Tessa U. 5 years ago on Google
    The signs are wrong and the staff doesn't even know where the bus stop is. Had to search for 45min because they gave us the wrong information. And since the signs are incorrect it's impossible to find the right one on your own.

  • 2/5 Elisabeth L. 4 years ago on Google
    The Audioguide was most of the time not on time and told us the background after we passed the landmark already. For the walkingtour we were standing 25 minutes around just to hear that the guide is not coming. (After calling with a few offices, where he is....) Plus point is the free stuff that you get with a ticket. 🥳

  • 1/5 Fernal A. 5 years ago on Google
    Great for driving around the city listening to jazz music if that's your thing, but not a useful way of obtaining historical information. Out of 5 City Site Seeing Tours that I've done all over the world, this one is the only disappointing one. Sometimes no information about sites are given between stops. Stops 1-7 are useless.

  • 1/5 Joan A. 6 years ago on Google
    We bought a ticket for 2 days and only used it for one day. Very confusing and buses were hot and crowded. Schedule is erratic and delayed. Do your research because there are other companies that might be better. We have done hop off in other cities and has been fine.

  • 1/5 Robin C. 5 years ago on Google
    DO NOT BUY TICKETS ONLINE. Although you'll receive a confirmation email and Apple Wallet pass unless you physically print the email the staff will not issue bus tickets. We even tried a local print shop but found that it closed earlier in the afternoon. It's not a scam but it might as well be.

    The commentary on the red bus is very poor and is not recommended.

  • 1/5 M P. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Terrible service. A scam go. The audio guide is a joke. The buses without air conditioning or awning. The route with stops of 20 eternal minutes. Long lines. Not tied would hire something like that again. In addition they have the city PLAGUE of commercials and offices, normal that people fall. Better buy a transport and a free tour. (Original) Pésimo servicio. Un timo vaya. La audioguía es un chiste. Los buses sin aire acondicionado ni toldo. La ruta con paradas de 20minutos eternas. Colas larguisimas. Ni atada volvería a contratar algo asi. Además tienen la cuidad PLAGADA de comerciales y oficinas, normal que la gente caiga. Mejor comprar un abono transportes y un free tour.

  • 1/5 Ana Patricia P. 6 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) We were in August and it was very hot. The buses were full, although there are many, but above they do not have an awning and below they do not put the air conditioning. I would not repeat it. (Original) Estuvimos en Agosto y hacia mucho calor. Los buses iban llenos, aunque hay muchos, pero arriba no tienen toldo y abajo no ponen el aire acondicionado. No lo repetiría.

  • 1/5 Anne D. 6 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Bad salespeople, get high on the streets to sell something supposedly interesting: unlimited bus until 11 p.m. ... for 48 h ... the form could seem interesting. What we are not told is that the buses stop at 6:00 p.m. and that there is a bus tour by night that starts at 9:00 p.m. and ends at 11:00 p.m. make you sleep (Original) Mauvais commerciaux, se faire alpaguer dans la rue pour se faire vendre un truc soit disant intéressant : bus illimité jusque 23h... pour 48h... la forume pouvait paraître intéressante. Ce qu' on ne nous précise pas, c'est que les bus s'arrête à 18h et qu' il y a un tour de bus by night qui commence à 21h et se termine à 23h... grande impression de s'être fait couillonner

  • 1/5 Jon 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Heavy system bought tickets online but still had to stop by the ticket office to print out tickets, which meant that we spent an unnecessarily long time and did not catch the bus that we originally had to take control of !!! (Original) Tungvint system kjøpte billetter online men måte fortsatt innom billettkontoret for å printe ut biletter noe som gjorde at me bruka unødvendig lang tid og ikke rakk bussen som vi original skulle ta styr unna!!!

  • 2/5 Claudia U. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Not clear enough stop signs All the time they make you change buses at some stops, losing between 10 and 15 minutes in the changes It offers a pink line with very poor service and widely spaced schedules The explanation of the very poor city and the city is beautiful (Original) Señalización de paradas no suficientemente clara Todo el tiempo te hacen cambiar de bus en algunas paradas perdiendo entre 10 y 15 minutos en los cambios Ofrece una línea pink con muy mal servicio y horarios muy espaciados La explicación de la ciudad muy pobre y la ciudad es preciosa

  • 2/5 Nataliya V. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Plus, there are almost always assistants at the stops who tell you when your bus will be. Minus - unlike other similar companies (and there are several of them in Budapest) there are not many stops, the lilac line runs only until 3 o'clock and therefore, having arrived at the Parliament (as an example) in the afternoon, you go back on foot, since their red line is far ... The overall impression is so-so. The logistics are very poorly thought out. (Original) Плюс - на остановках почти всегда есть помощники, которые подсказывают, когда будет ваш автобус. Минус - в отличие от других подобных фирм (а их в Будапеште несколько) не так много остановок, сиреневая ветка ходит только до 3 часов и поэтому, прибыв к Парламенту (как пример) днем, то обратно идешь пешком, так как их красная ветка далеко. Общее впечатление так себе. Логистика очень плохо продумана.

  • 1/5 Andrea L. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Terrible experience !!!! The tour of Budapest was awful with this company! Rude drivers, did not wait for the time indicated in the charts, information completely mismatched. In rainy day it is impossible to see anything in the city because the windows are stained and it has a tarp that does not allow to see absolutely nothing! Worst hop on hop off experience I've ever had! (Original) Péssima experiência!!!! O tour de Budapeste foi horrível com essa empresa! Motoristas grosseiros, não esperavam o tempo indicado nas paradas, informações totalmente desencontradas. Em dia de chuva é impossível ver qualquer coisa na cidade pois os vidros embassam e possui uma lona que não permite enxergar absolutamente nada! Pior experiência em hop on hop off que ja tive!
