Tour description

We start the tour from the office of Cityrama (address is Báthory utca 19, 1054 Budapest). First, we take the Margaret Bridge and drive over to Buda. We stop in the Castle District and during a short walk we show you the main attractions of the area. We walk to the Matthias Church and the Fishermen's Bastion (from where you can enjoy the beautiful panorama). We then take you across the Elisabeth Bridge to Pest and show you the famous Central Market Hall, followed by the largest Synagogue of Europe and the City Park. We pass by Europe's largest thermal spa and the Budapest Zoo, after which we stop at the Heroes' Square (with statues of the most famous Hungarian kings and dukes). Next we take the Andrássy Avenue to downtown Pest passing by the Opera House and St Stephen's Basilica. We then get off the bus again and take an interior visit of the impressive neo-gothic House of Parliament (guided tour incl.).
