Budapest, Hungary
Culture shock rating
Worried we’re going to shock your senses? Relax! We believe part of the fun of travel is immersing yourself in the destination and its culture, meeting the people, and learning what makes the place tick. We’ve got a wide range of tours with something for everybody. The cultural shock rating ranks how different the experience is from most Western cultures. But no matter the level, don’t worry, you’ll have a local, in-the-know guide with you every step of the way.
Low
Consider these tours your 101 intro to a place. Transportation might be private or a very comfortable public option, and the activities are usually visits to iconic sites and locations that are familiar to most Western cultures – but that will still give you fantastic insight into a destination.
Medium
Expect to rough it for parts of this tour, whether that’s on a packed public bus or in a local market off the tourist trail. There might be a few language barriers or unfamiliar cultural customs, and you’ll get an experience different from what you're used to at home.
High
You're out there in the global community! We’re going to take you down streets you’d rarely explore on your own, introduce you to local customs and languages, and take you for a ride in whatever transport is available. Get ready to take it as it comes, whatever comes. There might be a shock, but oh man, it’s worth it.
Physical rating
Worried our tours are too tough? Relax! From leisurely strolls to muscle-burning treks, we’ve got a wide range of tours with something for everybody. The physical grading gives you an idea of how much huffing and puffing you can expect on the tour.
Low
Slow and steady is all you need here. These tours have very limited physical activity, such as walking relatively flat streets, sites, or markets, and climbing in and out of the transport provided.
Medium
Not too hard, not too soft, these tours are just right! You can expect a bit of physical activity, but nothing overly challenging – perhaps walking up and down hills, riding a bike for up to 30 kilometers along mostly flat terrain, or jumping in a kayak for a gentle paddle on flat water.
High
Get ready for a workout! These tours are our most challenging and involve intense walking, hiking, kayaking, swimming, or bike riding. You could be making steep climbs by foot or pedal, or working your core in the water. We recommend you have a good level of fitness to join this tour.

Get ready to raise a glass at a few of the best beer bars Budapest has to offer. We start our tour in a one-of-a-kind steampunk bar, with a totally unique vibe and detailed steampunk-style interior to match. Here you’ll have your first Hungarian beer and some local snacks to soak up the rest of the beer ahead of us.
Next, we’ll explore some of the small streets of the Palace Quarter where you’ll get to experience the area’s late 19th-century architecture on route to our second beer-hopping spot. It’s one of the most popular pubs these days among locals, located on the edge of the Danube and housed in a cavernous former warehouse. Here you’ll get some beautiful views of the Buda side overlooking the Danube from the bar’s scenic waterside terrace.
It's all about traditional beer-drinking on our next stop as we travel back in time to a Hungarian pub that we call ‘kocsma,’ nowadays you usually only find such venues in the countryside. Here we will experience the laid-back, old-style pub scene of days gone by and enjoy some local bar snacks.
Our last stop is a signature bar on the Hungarian craft beer scene. This iconic bar serves an abundance of craft beers on tap, and was recently voted among the best brew pubs in Europe by The Guardian.
(If you’d prefer to travel as part of a regular group experience, please book our Best Beer in Budapest group tour.)
