I did the one through Portum Lines and to be honest some of the others looked nicer. But really, all I did is sit at the front and take dozens of photos. It was about an hour. There were some that had dinner and all that, but I just went with a super basic one.

One thing though, there are cans waiting for you when you get off and they’re totally gouging tourists! I was offered a ride for 7000 Forints which is about $28-30 CAD, and completely insane. Download the Bolt app which is still cabs, but they haven’t got Uber. That app was good. And I would also download Lime as they have electric scooters through them there.

And one other thing; you’ll want Forints. Be careful on where you get them though because there are a few “no commission” places and instead of a commission they kill you on the spread. Same with these ATMs you’ll see all over. Go to a legit bank and you’ll get a reasonable rate though, or buy ahead at Calforex or somewhere.
