    About the ride

    Travel in comfort with a private and fully personalised sightseeing ride. Together with your English-speaking Welcome Driver, you can choose which places to visit, how long to spend at each stop, and whether to follow our suggested itinerary or create your own custom route.

    Your driver is a friendly local professional with excellent knowledge of the region and its highlights. They’ll share useful insights, stories and recommendations along the way, helping you experience Budapest at night like a knowledgeable friend, without the pressure of strict schedules or crowded group rides.

    This flexible, door-to-door experience is the easiest and most comfortable way to admire top landmarks beautifully illuminated after sunset. Choose your pace, personalise your evening, and enjoy a smooth, atmospheric ride designed entirely around your interests.

    Suggested Itinerary

    Start your evening with a comfortable pickup in Budapest from your accommodation, where your Welcome Driver will assist you and prepare you for your personalized night tour.

    Begin at 1Heroes Square, a grand monument whose statues and archways glow beautifully under the night sky, creating a dramatic introduction to Budapest’s illuminated landmarks. Continue to 2State Opera House, where the richly decorated façade of Hungary’s national opera house shines elegantly along Andrássy Avenue.

    Next, admire 3Hungarian Parliament, an architectural masterpiece along the Danube, spectacularly lit with golden light that reflects across the river. Your journey continues to 4St. Stephen’s Basilica, a magnificent basilica whose illuminated dome and detailed façade create a stunning nighttime panorama.

    Make your way to 5Chain Bridge, the city’s iconic suspension bridge, glowing over the water and offering one of the most romantic views in Budapest. Then ascend to 6Castle Hill, where illuminated courtyards and historic buildings provide unforgettable nighttime photo opportunities.

    Conclude your tour at 7Citadel, the perfect hilltop lookout for sweeping nighttime views of the Danube, Parliament, and the sparkling city lights below.

    At the end of your sightseeing ride, your Welcome Driver will drop you off at your accommodation or any other central location you prefer.

    Tip: Feel free to adjust the itinerary at any point—add new stops, skip locations, or enjoy extra time taking night photos. Your driver will happily adapt the route based on your preferences.

    Important Notes

    Your driver is a local, English-speaking professional. While not a licensed tour guide, they’re always happy to share stories, insights, and recommendations — much like a knowledgeable friend showing you around.

    Pickup and drop-off are included from any centrally located hotel, B&B, or apartment in the city area. Your driver will meet you at the selected location and assist you before the ride begins.

    Airport and port pickups/drop-offs are not included in the standard sightseeing ride. If you need one, simply book an additional transfer for seamless service.

    Entrance tickets are not included. Your driver can guide you on the best way to book tickets for the attractions you’d like to visit.

    The itinerary is flexible — feel free to skip stops, stay longer, or add new locations based on your interests and available time.

    Please mention any special requirements (service animals, accessibility needs, oversized luggage, etc.) in the booking notes so we can ensure a smooth and comfortable experience.

    It was a great experience seeing the city during the night, the lights throughout the city were beautiful and especially the buildings around Danubes! Marianna of course made the experience even better, she was super nice and helpful, we learned a lot about the city and got great recommendations on local restaurants too :)

    Frequently asked questions
    Expand

    What happens after I book?

    Once you complete your booking you will receive a confirmation email. Feel free to reach out to our customer service team at [email protected] for any specific questions regarding your booking.

    What is the cancellation policy?

    Any cancelation that is requested up to 24 hours prior to the operation time is entitled to a refund of 80%  

    In case of cancellation in less than 24 hours prior to the operation time or in case of no-show of the customer, you are not eligible for any form of refund. 

    Can I customize the tour based on my needs?

    Of course! That is one of the main benefits of having a Welcome experience. You can customize every last bit of the experience, from points of visit to time spent per landmark to adding in an extra food stop.

    Will there be an official tour guide?

    An official tour guide is not included because the overall experience is centered around the driver and the local’s perspective. Although the drivers are very knowledgeable regarding the points of visit, at no point can they be compared with a licensed tour guide who can give more in depth information regarding historic facts and information. If you would like to include an official tour guide in the experience please let us know via email after the booking is completed. However, we believe the "Budapest by Night" experience does not need a tour guide to be fully enjoyed.

    Can i book my pickup from anywhere?

    Hey there! Just a quick note: our transfer pickups are set within the city (usually from a Hotel or residential address) to make your journey smoother. But no sweat! If you're arriving at an airport or port, you can book a transfer to the city center and share your transfer number with our support team so that we can combine the two, and we'll ensure a seamless transition to your destination so that you can start a great sightseeing ride. Let's make your travel experience a breeze!

    Can I bring my luggage with me?

    Yes, you’re absolutely welcome to bring your luggage along during your experience. Just make sure to mention the number of suitcases in the notes section when booking. This helps us assign the right vehicle so everything fits comfortably and there are no issues on the day.
