Overview

A 2-hour tip-based small-group walk around Buda's Castle District, with Matthias Church, Fisherman's Bastion, the historic Ruszwurm confectionery and the Tóth Árpád promenade views.

Explore the Castle District on Buda's hilltop with a professional guide and a group of no more than 10. Starting at the Holy Trinity Column beside Matthias Church, you see the church and Fisherman's Bastion before heading past the old Ministry of Finance. Next comes Ruszwurm, one of Budapest's oldest confectioneries, and the statue of András Hadik. You then walk along the Tóth Árpád promenade, one of the best panoramas in Buda, passing the Hospital in the Rock nuclear bunker museum and the Buda Castle Labyrinth on the way. Monuments are seen from outside, and your guide gives tailored recommendations for restaurants, bars and museums. Tours run every day and are tip-based.
