Cityrama Tours ?
 
Has anyone taken tours with this company.
I'm planning to do 2 tours in Budapest with them , but would like to hear from other clients. I'm going to book the Danube bend
Visegard and esztergom tour. also, the Bu-
dapest by night with dinner and folkloric
show. Has anyone done any of the two? even
if it was with a different company, how was
it? Is the boat used to travel the Danube an
old one? do they spend enough time at every
town , so people can look around?
Any help is appreciated. thanks.

Cityrama is the company at the top of my list. We've used them more than once, if not too recently. The Danube Bend tour is excellent, and well paced.

I've never been enticed by any "Budapest by night" tour (or the equivalent in other cities, for that matter). For the greatest part, Budapest does not have a night activity feel comparable to what you might find in London, New York, etc., although there is night life -- but not so concentrated.

You can find restaurants on your own that offer the dinner with "folkloric show", and should save a bit.

Hi. I used them in Paris to go to Monet's place outside of Paris. They were great.

Their busses are new and clean, the people friendly and helpful, and the tour was well worth the money. Don't worry, you'll enjoy your tours with CityRama.

FYI - Recent info I got from AAA lists cityrama tours as one of the attractions you can get discounts on. I don't know how it works - haven't looked into it. But, if you have AAA it might be worth checking out before you go.
