    Everything was very accessible and well-organized, but in the city center, it was difficult for us to find the starting stop, and on one trip, the audio jack for the headphones was broken.

    A great way to explore and get to know Budapest. Friendly staff and bus drivers. The only complaint is about the state of the deck on the upper deck of one of the buses, which was damaged during the journey.

    Not enough time to do all we wanted. Next time we need to come for at least 3 days, even then probably wont get round to doing everything, fantastic that you can but 24 hour 48, and 72 hour tickets. So much to see. On a down side stop 17 whilst the church there is very beautiful. There is a gathering of homeless and drunk people, drugs, alcohol, and public urination. Would strongly advise people to avoid this stop.

    Good schedules and organization. The best part of the experience was the walking tour. Unfortunately, the boat ride was through the southern part of the city and not where the main buildings are.
