Don't book on htis if you've gone on the Danube bend tour, as you've already done Szentendre. (local tour company) were very helpful and we substituted the jewish Synagogue and quarter tour AND the Parliament tour at no extra cost - both highly recommended, but a lot of walking on both.

A great disappointment! It wasn't clear where to begin the tour, the trip was boring, and the river cruise was boring, there wasn't anything to see, until we returned to the site of Parliament building.

Overall, I enjoyed this excursion, but we were very put off by the 'extra' (mandatory) stop at Caprice diamond store for a 'presentation' on our way to Szentendre. It took a whole 45 minutes out of an already short day, leaving us only an hour and a hlaf in the town itself! We even had to ditch our guide before the end of his walk-around because we felt so pressured to see as much as possible before having to meet up with him again.

I there was a zero or minus star rating , this trip deserved it! What a waste of time and money. Town totally boring; walking up a flight of uneven steps and through a few cobbled streets was not as anticipated. There was absolutely nothing worth seeing and the only things open were stalls trying to sell cheap overpriced tourist trash along the route. I have seen better and more interesting places in the UK. We were not alone with this opinion, others of the party thought the same. Tour guide pointed out buildings of interest en route , only good thing about the trip. If you want to see the town TAKE THE TRAIN from budapest and at least you can get back when you have had enough.
