Overview

Skip the crowds waiting for traditional city bus tours with this private experience. Instead, buckle up in an authentic, vintage, open-top Russian military jeep—over 60 years old—and let your English speaking driver showcase Budapest's beauty! Perfect for those wanting to explore beyond the usual sights, you'll uncover the city's wonders and secrets. Visit the City Park, Andrássy Avenue, Opera House, Hungarian Parliament Building, Buda Castle, and the Jewish Quarter, including areas inaccessible to regular tours. Don't worry about missing photo opportunities; the jeep stops at notable locations like Heroes' Square, the Central Market Hall, and Gellért Hill, allowing you to get out and explore. Ready for all weather conditions, the jeep comes equipped with a rain cover and built-in seat heating for colder days. Drinks on board await you for both hot summer and cold winter days.
