Full Day Best of Budapest From Vienna
Depart Vienna to explore the best Budapest has to offer for a full day. Get to know the country of Hungary better with a city trip to Budapest. Tour to Hungary's most beautiful attractions by bus, and enjoy a guided walk through the historic center of the city.
Enjoy a comfortable bus tour from Vienna through the Hungarian lowlands to Budapest. The name "Budapest" is the combination of the city names Buda, Pest, and Obuda which were united into a single city in 1873. Today, the city can clearly be distinguished into two parts, Buda and Pest, divided by the river Danube. The two parts could not be more different.
This tour of Budapest begins in the more modern district of Pest. Here you will see the area's most popular tourist attractions such as the awe-inspiring neo-Gothic Parliament building, the magnificent Opera House and the impressive Heroes' Square.
After lunch on your own, you'll rejoin the guided tour in the district of Buda. Experience the historic Royal Palace, the romantic Fishermen's Bastion, the Matthias Church, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Margaret Island with its gorgeous parks and recreational facilities. At the end of the city tour of Budapest, you have approximately 2 hours of free time for shopping or relaxing.
