Big Bus Tours Budapest レビュー 601

We went on a 2 day Big Bus Tour. All went well, although we felt that the commentaries left something to be desired with little information being supplied about buildings that we passed and lots of general information about Hungary. There is a seemingly useless loop around the New York palace building (and again, no relevant commentary). Lots of pauses between speeches with music. We DID like the walking tour, which was very informative. We opted to go on the Citadel excursion, but were surprised to be charged 3000 HUF each for the experience, which was subcontracted to a separate company. Admittedly, it does say in the leaflet that this is chargeable. TIP, Bus route 27 (or 28) goes there and is included in the Public Transport network therefore you would get this for (almost) free.

Personal excelentes serviciales, amables etc.
El tour una maravilla, si tengo posibilidad de coger Big bus en otra ciudad, ni dudo.

Mucho tiempo de espera entre cada autobús. Pocos miembros de la empresa en las paradas.

Nagyon jól éreztuk magunkat a Bug Bus Tours-t ajánlom mindenkinek, aki elószor jár Budapesten :)

Nice experience and professional support us always with Big Bus in Budapest. Thank you for the three days package.

Very good price-quality ratio. We had deluxe tickets Budapest and was very satisfied. But there was one bad thing - a mistake in the booklet. It's was written that walk-tour started at stop number 16 but actually it started at stop 19. Because of this mistake we could miss the walk tour. Fix this please, it's not nice.

To be honest, it wasn't as good as we hoped. 'Hop on, hop off' sounds great, but in fact we spent a LOT of time standing at bus stops. Also, there were a couple of misunderstandings, we were not told the last bus from Heroes Square is at 4:30, even though we asked the driver where we get the bus back, when we got off (it was about 3:45). Also, we were NOT told that you have to do the Citadel on the same day as the Castle. Why?
I couldn't recommend you, as I'd say it would be best to pay for things as you went along.

Big Bus provides excellent value and covers key locations, excellent if you’re looking for key locations!

The Bus Tour and River Cruise were good considering the time of year (January) and the cold & wet weather. As we had booked before going, which is easy and saves some money, we did not engage with any of the Big Bus team apart from the drivers. No ticket checks were done and little interaction with any other guides. Not necessarily a major negative, but some interaction and presence would have been good. The tour information on the bus is using pre-recorded information, not a live tour guide. Information ok/minimal. It pointed out that the House of Terror was accessible from a particular stop, so we got off to go and visit this museum only to find it was closed from 8th - 22nd Jan!
Being winter there was 1 bus every 30 minutes - other companies seemed to have more busses doing more tours. This was plenty for us though.

Truly recommended, I never had to wait more than 15 minutes, I had the 3 days tickets with everything and it's the best way to know the city.

Version "Deluxe" Well adapted and economic To see the town (by bus during the day, to night, by boat) and travel everywhere during 3 days.

I liked the idea of deluxe package with 3 days of HOHO, additional unlimited river cruises, night bus tour, and Buda-part of town tour.
but:
1. Buda-tour is just one tour, not a full HOHO, you cannot go as many times as you want. stops are not marked, it's very hard to find. You have to go in just one order: Fisherman bastion, Buda castle, Gellert hill.
2. audio guide is terrible. stop crying about soviet occupation, or , at least, do it instead of music. tell more about buildings and monuments we are passing by. tell more about things to do ans see at stops.
3. why there is no stop closer to Parlament, or Danube shoes mark?

Would highly recommend Big bus tours, brilliant way to see all the main sights within a day. Plus the ticket included a cruise on the river Danube.
Make sure you have to app, to track where the buses are and for loads of extra info on Budapest.

The service of big-bus to gellert hill was stopped during winter and was by a different company (castle tour?).
I fact, the time schedule to the hill was very bad ( once in an hour, until 3 pm) and there was no way to go there on time.
The service stops too early...

I tried Big Bus Tours in several cities around the world, and I have enjoyed all enough. It was really cold first day of tour, but sun and Big Bus service warmed enough our day. So we enjoyed our Premium 2 days ticket. thanks Big Bus

The frecuency is very bad and the temperature into the bus is very could.

it was pretty good. The buses took a little long once or twice, but overall it was a good experience. I'm not sure that I would recommend it to a friend, but it was OK.

They really need to call out stop numbers on the voiceover so it is easier to work out where the hell you are.

Generally excellent but longer than scheduled wait on one occasion. Last scheduled blue route appeared to be cancelled but driver was very helpful.
Good value for money. Great walking tours.
