Budapest is really two cities, Buda and Pest, combined. The Pest district lies on the eastern bank of the Danube River and is famous for its vibrant atmosphere, Jewish community and history, and stunning mix of architectural styles from Gothic to Art Nouveau. Your private guide will show you all the most important highlights of the district on your private walking tour.
Learn all about the Jewish community, as you step inside the Great Synagogue, a statuesque landmark that ranks amongst the world's largest places of worship for the Jewish faith. Stroll the leafy Andrássy út boulevard, passing by the neo-Renaissance National Opera House and other national buildings, including the formidable and magnificent Hungarian Parliament.
Walk into the Heroes' Square, one of Budapest's favorite public spaces: a popular gathering point with a monument dedicated to the Magyar (Hungarian). Your final destination on the half-day tour of Pest is the largest spa in Europe, the mosaic-rich Széchenyi Spa, an immense bathing complex built in elaborate Art Nouveau style. You have the option of purchasing tickets to explore the bubbling hot springs and steaming pools of curative waters.
