Fantastic 5.0
the staff was quite rude when I reached before the check in time. he was pretty rude to me when he says check in at 2pm and just look away. I know i shouldn’t expect much but at least a polite greeting when I arrive at the country.

Great 4.0
The location is great with convenient transportation, and the front desk staff provides excellent service. However, the breakfast bread wasn't very fresh during my five or six-day stay. Also, I saw the same employee pick up ice cubes from the floor and put them back into the ice machine for reuse on two consecutive days.

Amir was an outstanding tour guide. He drove safely and skillfully, shared interesting insights about the castles we visited, and made us feel very comfortable throughout the trip. He truly deserves a raise for his excellent service.

We took a boat cruise and the 48-hour hop-on, hop-off tour, which was highly recommended in Budapest. To explore Budapest, we stopped frequently. Fantastic experience!

this was a very extensive tour, there is a lot of walking at the castle district, you get to ride a tour bus that goes around, the tour guide explains the places and the statues etc, the highlight of the tour is when you go inside the parliament, the downside is there's no time to eat, so before the tour, you should have eaten a hearty meal, you should wear comfortable shoes because theres a lot of walking

This trip started with a distant view of Esztergom from across the river in Slovakia, followed by a visit to Esztergom itself. For lunch, we went to Visegrád, and the restaurant the tour company chose for us had delicious and reasonably priced meals. After that, we visited the castle, and finally, we strolled around Szentendre before taking a boat back to Budapest. Our guide, Maria, was excellent. At each attraction, she allowed us to freely choose whether to follow her or explore on our own, and she gave us about an hour to visit each site, which was enough time for us to take pictures and buy souvenirs. Since our English isn't very good, we had to find the guide again at each new attraction to confirm the meeting time and place, and she was always patient and friendly in explaining until she was sure we understood.

The trip to Budapest and Bratislava was awesome! Our driver was punctual, communicated well, and always arrived on time. We managed to visit all the main attractions and learned a lot about the history—our guide was very knowledgeable. No need to worry about photos either; the guide took great shots for us. One thing I really appreciated was that I never had to wait too long to use the restroom—the guide was always alert and quickly found places with toilets. Meals were also well taken care of, so breakfast, lunch, and dinner were never an issue. My travel group was small, which made everything more manageable, and everyone was so friendly. Thank you, Mr. Dmitry, for being such a wonderful guide
