Best of Prague & Budapest in 8 Days Tour

Overall rating: rating 5 of 5

This was a great tour! I really like the tours that have a cooking class. This was my eighth tour and there were some different elements that I really enjoyed: only moving once during the tour, keeping the same city guide for the whole time in each city, only having two early start days, and the coffee breaks that were included.

"On the evening cruise of the Danube I wasn't prepared for just how spectacular the Parliament Building in Budapest was going to be, it really took my breath away! "

Etelka was outstanding. She knew her cities and her job. She. Kept us safe, entertained,She was there to help and educate. Both local tour guides - Barbara and Andrea were so knowledgeable about history and their city. Everything went smoothly.

Overall rating: rating 5 of 5

Exploring Prague and Budapest with the loveliest group of fellow travelers and exceptional tour guides was an outstanding adventure. I’ll never forget the sights, the history lessons learned, the food, the song, the relaxing thermal baths and I’ll forever treasure having my horizons expanded on this tour experience.

"The violinists at the mirror castle…the Budapest Opera house…the churches…parliament lit up viewed from the Danube…"

Overall rating: rating 5 of 5

Loved everything. Prague and Budapest were both beautiful and vibrant cities with stunning sights and stories around every corner. This was our first tour, and we will do it again. The time in each ctiy was just right. The itineraries allowed us the right amount of time to do our own thing, and the local guides were great resources. We had a wonderful tour group, and being with the group was a welcome highlight. I preferred the tour experience to traveling on our own and recommend it.

Favorite "WOW" moment

"The inspirational stories of centuries of heroic sacrafice by people of both countries to free themselves from the yoke if oppression. Many people who are still alive lived through dictatorial regimes and had to take courageous risks to secure freedom, opportunity and the right to self-determination for themselves and their children. The sights and experiences were all wonderful, but for me the stories of the bold struggles to secure what we sometimes take for granted was the "wow" moment."

One of the best. This was my 6th tour. Etelka, our guide was amazing! Knowledgeable and organized. Wonderful personality.

We visited Prague and Budapest. Our guides were fantastic, and the itinerary had a good balance of group activities and free time to explore on our own.

"There was so much variety that it is hard to pick one thing, The cooking class in Budapest stood out to me because it was fun to do as a group."

It was a delightful tour. I loved many of the unique events planned and appreciated a good level of free time.

Favorite "WOW" moment

"The concert in the Opera House in Budapest."

Overall rating: rating 4 of 5

our main tour guide George was excellent. The group was very nice, kind and inclusive. Hotel in Prague was lovely, with a great breakfast. Tours in Prague were very good. The hotel in Budapest was terrible - too hot & couldn't regulate temperature; breakfast wasn't particularly good.

Favorite "WOW" moment

"Prague, the Jewish quarter tour was excellent (has technical difficulties with equipment and Martin(guest tour guide was monotone & droned on (didn't read the group well). on our own, we went to the Museum of Communism - it was a highlight. I liked exploring Prague! Like the concert George scheduled Budapest - tour of Opera House and concert was unbelievable/amazing"

Overall rating: rating 5 of 5

Great schedule of activities and itinerary. Saw things I probably wouldn't have found on my own and enjoyed the many "surprises" along the way. George was a fabulous guide and the others that joined us during the week were also excellent.

"Our private concert in Prague was a wonderful ending to our time there!"

Beautifull cities, well organized. Not overwhelming. Good balance in-between free time and guided tours. Amazing group of travelers and guide. (Local guides were very very good as well).

"Hard to tell, but those few first sounds of music and voices of the little private concert in Budapest opera... wow ( I said to myself), it was majestic, truly."

Overall rating: rating 5 of 5

Being difficult cities to explore, having the expert and personal guidance throughout our tour was great. So much of the experience would have been lost without it.

Favorite "WOW" moment

"Our "wow" times were those spent during our free times on the tour. Being so well prepared and informed by our guides and information provided enabled us to enjoy sites, jazz clubs, and sample amazing food venues."

Overall rating: rating 5 of 5

Both hotels were spacious, clean, had good service & breakfast buffet. George is great, very patient, attentive to everyone's needs and was very thorough in his explanation of public transport & how to get to places of interest. He also spent a lot of time making sure dietary needs were met & he went out of his way to help people get to their next stop & was up at the crack of dawn helping. Would have preferred less free time and would have liked a day trip or more guided tours in Prague.

Favorite "WOW" moment

"Walking on Charles Bridge at night and seeing the Hungarian parliament."

Overall rating: rating 5 of 5

Wonderful! George is great! I fell in love with Prague and Budapest really grew on me. After just finishing the Paris and the Heart of France tour a few days before, I loved being in only two places for several days each. The locations of both of our hotels were very good. I see that next year you are changing it up a bit. I like that you are starting earlier in the day in Prague and getting to Budapest a day sooner. Seems like a better split.

Favorite "WOW" moment

"Prague! But seriously, spending time with the younger guides who shared what it was like living under communism, what you could and couldn't do. I also really enjoyed the cooking class. Those people are great! (Am I using the word, great, too often!?!) "

Overall rating: rating 5 of 5

George is a great guide, and all the local guides he brought in really added to our trip. The treats, the coffees, the Cold War insights, as well as the more ancient history and beautiful sites were wonderful. The Holocaust remembrances were compelling. I wasn't particularly looking forward to the cooking experience, but the ChefParade people made it fun. I was there for Budapest but fell in love with Prague. The private opera performances were very special. Thanks, George.

Favorite "WOW" moment

"Two stand out. First, I'm a history buff and was fascinated to get to talk one-on-one with so many local guides who lived through the Cold War years and hear their personal experiences, and those of their parents and grandparents. Those talks were scattered throughout the tour and it was great. The second, which is more of a singular "wow", was the impromptu organ playing when we were in Mathias Church in Budapest."

Overall rating: rating 5 of 5

The tour to Prague and Budapest was fabulous! It was everything I imagined, and more. The hotels were centrally located. Our guide, George, was so knowledgeable. And the local guides that joined us not only shared their knowledge of the cities and their history but also their personal experiences, which added richness to the experience.

Favorite "WOW" moment

"Our guides were outstanding. I truly appreciated their depth of knowledge and willingness to share personal experiences. They brought the countries, the people, and their histories alive for me. "

It was a highly enjoyable experience, our first Rick Steves tour. Did not know exactly what to expect but it exceeded our expectations. The guides were outstanding, cultural exposure and food were all wonderful. Tired from the trip but well worth it.

Favorite "WOW" moment

"Too many that were equally "wow": St. Vitus Cathedral, Pinkas Synagogue, both opera performances in Prague and Budapest, views of Parliament and Buda Castle."

Overall rating: rating 5 of 5

Our main guide and the local guides were excellent. They were a wealth of knowledge. We learned so much about the cultures of the places we visited, the history, architecture, struggles and triumphs of the people through the ages, and more. The occasional surprises (such as hearing opera at the opera house) were delightful. Besides being adept at keeping us on schedule and educating us, our guides were enthusiastic and very likable.

Favorite "WOW" moment

"The boat ride at night on the Danube in Budapest is a close tie with learning about the Velvet Revolution from our local guide (Katerina) in Prague. They were completely different experiences; the boat ride was exhilarating and beautiful. Hearing a first hand account of what it was like to be under Communist rule and to finally drive them out from someone who had actually been there and very personally affected was deeply moving. I don't think I'll ever forget either experience."

Informative and illuminating about countries and cultures I did not know much about. The guides were extraordinarily knowledgeable and articulate.

Overall rating: rating 4 of 5

Tour was lovely with a great guide who was knowledgeable and enthusiastic the entire time. We were able to see so much with time to also explore on our own. The only downside was the hotel in Budapest which looked up to date on the outside but inside everything was very worn and the staff were rude, no a/c as it had been turned off by corporate even though it was quite warm in rooms and all parts of the hotel except breakfast area. I would definitely suggest RS use a different hotel.

Overall rating: rating 3 of 5

Our tour guide was always very enthusiastic and both local guides were incredibly knowledgeable. Sites in Prague were more impressive; I felt we were shown very little of importance in Budapest, and perhaps had a bit too much free time.

Favorite "WOW" moment

"St. Vitus Cathedral in Prague was beautiful, particularly the Alfonse Mucha stained glass window. We were there in the morning, and the light streaming through windows on the opposite side caused beautiful reflections that I captured in photos. "

Guides, meals, special musical moments and a really cool cooking class were all amazing. Etelka was an excellent overall guide, and Honsa and Ester were knowledgeable and personable. Appreciated the the history combined with the personal experiences of our guides. Also liked the free time to tour time balance - most afternoons were free. Would have preferred one more day in Budapest.

Great super knowledgable guides but a little short on the touring itself with too much free time built in. For a trip that we agreed to walk 2-8 miles a day, too much reliance on public transportation.

"Budapest Opera House and Prague Jewish Cemetery. "

Overall rating: rating 5 of 5

This tour was a perfect balance of directed tour time and free time to explore. The hotels and meals were outstanding; they were boutique and local. Again, outstanding. Our primary guide, Andrea, was knowledgeable, even-keeled ( a must when you’re herding cats), and passionate about the cities of Central Europe. The city specific guides offered unique insight and perspective. This tour truly offered a five star experience.

Favorite "WOW" moment

"Prague snuck up on me. It’s beauty, it’s antiquity, it’s friendliness. My wife’s and my path to discovering Prague was to find all of the David Cerny artwork. While we failed in finding ALL, we did succeed in getting lost and found in twisting, treasure-filled Prague city streets."

"I'll offer two: the planned, and the unplanned. For the planned: the intimate opera performance (guide's choice, I believe), on the last day in Prague. The soprano, especially, brought me to tears. The performers even stayed back and talked with us after the show. For the unplanned: When we visited Matthias Church in Buda, just a few minutes into our talk, a man performed a stunning 15-minute set on the church organs. It was truly a "wow" moment because no one expected it, not even Andrea."

Prague & Budapest was our first Rick Steves' city tour, and it was great, as were all of our previous tours. Great tour guide, great local guides, great tour group. All members could keep up the walking pace this tour, which was a plus. With English spoken, you could tour on your own (with Rick Steves' Guide Books, but the guides, musical experiences and fellow travelers really add to the vacation experience. Too many synagogues used a full morning. Could have used another day in Budapest.

Katka is a fantastic guide, clearly interested in presenting us with knowledge about both cities and her hometown, Prague, in particular. This was my 7th RS tour and every one has been terrific.

Favorite "WOW" moment

"Seeing both cities at night. On the first night in Prague as we crossed the Charles Bridge, the view was spectacular. This was matched by the evening cruise on the Danube in Budapest. A warm Fall breeze and the buildings lit up in golden lights was magical."

"I can't choose one! I never expected to visit Prague and Budapest, so the entire trip was a "wow!" The trip underscored that travel makes history come alive. It was an in-depth course in Central European history, WWII, the Velvet Revolution, Czech and Hungarian culture."

Overall rating: rating 5 of 5

We had a wonderful introduction to both cities. The local guide were informative and their knowledge base was reliable for metro connections, restaurants, and historical accuracy. Beyond that, we enjoyed their memories of life behind the iron curtain. That made the tour exceptional. We had enough time to explore both cities and appreciated the free time we had to be on our own.

"As usual on any Rick Steves tour, it’s hard to choose just one. I’ll pick two. First was our last night in Prague when we were treated to a concert by operatic performers. It was so beautiful to hear those voices so close up and engaging. The other was being introduced to the history of the area in such a personal way through their memories of the guides. "

This was my first city specific tour out of all the previous tours I have taken. I really enjoyed the immersive historical details we received in both Prague and Budapest because we were spending more time in those cities. I enjoyed visiting more sites with the group that otherwise would be optional free time on the Eastern Europe tour. It was nice to spend the extra time in each place that this tour provides. It makes me want to try another city specific tour.

First of all I think we got the best guide, Peter, (and Jana in Prague for the local guide) Peter is very personable and inclusive. He is comfortable to be around and such a perfect personality with great enthusiasm for his job. Rick, you made a perfect choice! This is my first tour with this company, and I will be finding another one to join. I loved how we were given tickets for the local transportation! My first time for travel like this, and it became comfortable and fun!

"Following Honza along the route he took as a 13-year-old in 1989 with his big sister and a sea of protesters as they tried to march to Wenceslaus square at the start of the Velvet Revolution. It was the most moving day as he told us about his experiences and what they could have cost, including his sister’s medical career. History come to life. Honza gave us an amazing education each day in Prague and I will never forget it."

This was our 3rd Rick Steves tour (Paris & Rome previously) and another exceptional experience!

"The favorite 'wow' moments overal were hearing the stories of our guides and their lives in their countries especially living under communisism. History is so much deeper & richer hearing the experiences of people on an individual level. The Prague highlight or 'wow' moment was the architecture of the builings. The Budapest 'wow' moment was the evening cruise on the Danube viewing the stunning buildings lit up and glowing along the banks of the river. "

My husband and I went on the Best of Prague & Budapest in 8 Days (Sept. 3-10). We arrived at the Hotel Leonardo and LOVED our room--the best of our trip. Etelna is an outstanding guide--very personable. She kept us on schedule in a pleasant, no-nonsense way. We appreciated Peter's tours of Prague and Monica's tours of Budapest.

Favorite "WOW" moment

"We wanted to see the Black Light Theater in Prague. We had a terrible time finding it on Sept 4 (it had moved--guidebook update needed) & when we did, the performance was cancelled. From the website, it appeared to be sold out the only other day we could go, Sept. 5. We told Etelna about our disappointment. On her own, she called the theater. By sheer accident, we ran into her on the street and found out that we could go on 9/5 after all. The performance was wonderful."

This was our 6th RS tour and first city tour. Like all others it was well organized, had great content and plenty of free time to explore on your own. Our two city guides Honza and Andrea were with us each day They showed us much more than we have seen on our own. They provided us a wealth of information along with exclusives, just for us like opera concert with members from the Budapest Opera, cooking class and music performances at dinner. To top it off both hotels were in great locations.

Favorite "WOW" moment

"As everyone says there are so many! For me it was our Czech Guide Honza Vihan taking us on his firsthand experience as a student as part of the massive crowd that over two weeks of peaceful demonstration took town the Communist government. He never knew if the Russians would. react with tanks and machine guns like they had in the past. That action was known as the Velvet Resolution that freed the country. "

Both Prague and Budapest exceeded our expectations, after arriving in both destinations with preconceived images we were quickly "turned around" after venturing out in to the many historic locations and meeting the locals from the Czech Republic and Hungary. The people we met were warm and friendly and more than happy to "direct us" to our intended destinations. The incredible architecture in both cities quickly filled up my camera SD card!

Favorite "WOW" moment

"There wasn't just one "wow moment" on this trip. We found the beauty in both cities to be almost overwhelming at times not know which direction to look. The two private performances with the gentlemen from the Prague Castle Orchestra and the Operatic duo were right at the top of our list. And combine all that with being able to share these moments with the others in our group made for an amazing vacation. "

Prague is lovely and Budapest is bustling.This tour provided so many diverse opportunities - from a private opera concert (amazing!) to heart breaking history at the Holocaust Memorial in Prague - a gorgeous river cruise on the Danube at night, to a cooking class in Budapest. I enjoyed every minute, even while hobbling around with a torn meniscus! Our guide Anna was wonderful and so helpful. Fun group.

This trip was great. I learned so much and I had a terrific time too. The itinerary is expert and the extra surprises our guide Andrea--one of the best guides in the business, I wager--provided, were delightful. I was ill the first morning, and Andrea checked in with me and then she met me and provided me with my tram and the Prague castle tickets so I could do it on my own and not miss anything. This trip had it all---music, history, art, architecture, food, and fun.
