Full description
After meeting at the tour office, close to the majestic Opera House, you'll then cruise along Andrassy Boulevard before taking in the magnificent St. Stephen’s Basilica. After seeing the beautiful church and square, the next stop is Liberty Square for a look at one of the city's last Soviet relics before you make your way to the Parliament building.
It's here, from the riverbank, that you'll enjoy a stunning view of the Castle District - which includes buildings such as Matthias Church, Royal Palace, and the Fisherman’s Bastion. Your guide will be on hand to tell you about these places and the roles they played in the city's history. Next, you'll stop for a refreshment break in a warm and cozy cafe and enjoy a delicious, traditional Hungarian pastry and coffee or tea.
Rested and relaxed, it's off to Central Market Hall - one of Europe’s largest and most spectacular indoor markets. You'll walk through the beautiful Art Nouveau building before heading back to the downtown area. The bike tours are small and generally do not have more than 15 participants, making them interactive and personal.
