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.

The experience was wonderful, both the bus and the spa, but don't forget your towel when you go to the Szechenyi spa and your flip flops. They don't rent them and flip flops are mandatory! They charged us 12€ for the flip flops and 20€ for the towel!!!!!

We liked the fact that we could take the bus to the stop of our choice. Then we could get off to visit a site and get back on another bus, which was really appreciated. The cruise on the Danube is very nice. We had a really pleasant day thanks to your tourist bus.

De bus was ideaal omdat je op 1 dag een groot deel van de stad kon zien met alle belangrijke bezienswaardigheden. Het was alleen jammer dat de bus in de kastelenwijk (aan de boeda kant) niet direct bij alle bezienswaardigheden stopte maar dat je nog een stuk moest lopen. Ook deden de kastjes met informatie niet allemaal of viel een deel van de informatie weg.
