Private or small tours for Budapest, Vienna & Prague
 

We are looking for suggestions for private or small tours for Budapest, Vienna & Prague. Maybe something simple to introduce us to each city. We will be there in May. Do they have hop on & off bus tours ? Thank you

In October we scheduled a tour in Budapest. I cannot say enough about how information it was. Also it was very personal.
www.beyondbudapest.hu

This is a small tour company and they give very individual attention to their participants.

We also took the hop on hop off but I wasn't impressed. Others might disagree.

If I had to do it again I would schedule more tours with Beyond Budapest.

Sorry. Cannot help with Vienna or Prague.

Sher ,,, Thank you for the info

In both Prague and Budapest found small scale walking tours through the tourist office. Each was 8 to 10 people, covered a limited area and lasted about 2 hours. Guides were local university students with excellent English and great knowledge of their cities. I f nd these much more interesting than canned hoppy buses - which are usually least common denominator - and only show you outsides of major sights - not details of specific neighborhoods (or themes) and expensive for what you get.

It really depends on what you want to get out of seeing a city. And you need to recognize that most cities have central pedestrian districts - often with no access except by foot.

In Prague I would not bother with the HOHO bus, the historical center is very small, try http://www.trkalova.guide-prague.cz/ for a guide, she is quite well known

All your information is very helpfull ... Thanks
