Overview

Please read EVERYTHING before booking.

If you've ever wanted to discover a truly hidden place in magnificent Budapest, this is the tour you are looking for. We will be far from all the typical tourist attractions and will be venturing into the 3rd district of the city, also known as Old Buda, famous for its Roman heritage sites belonging to the former provincial capital Aquincum.

The locations included, but dependant on opening times, interest and our movement speed are:
The military amphitheatre
The ruins of the legionary camp
The remains of the military bath (currently only from the outside)
The Hercules villa*
The Aquincum Museum
The civilian amphitheatre*

*These are a little off the std. itinerary.

Pls. note that including all may mean a tour length of 4-5 hours in total (you need to add some travel time between locations as well). The specified price is my hourly rate, you will be paying me the remainder at the end, depending on how long the tour lasted.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
