April 17, 2022 Concepcion Newsome

Over 15 million gallons of water bubble daily into Budapest's 118 springs and boreholes. The city of spas offers an astounding array of baths, from the sparkling Gellert Baths to the vast 1913 neo-baroque Szechenyi Spa to Rudas Spa, a dramatic 16th-century Turkish pool with original Ottoman architecture. The "Queen of the Danube" is also steeped in history, culture and natural beauty. Get your camera ready for the Roman ruins of the Aquincum Museum, Heroes' Square and Statue Park, and the 300-foot dome of St. Stephen's Basilica.

This bus tour is well worth the money. Would have rated a five but experience with one of the employees is reflected in rating. but overall this bus tour is great. You get to see all the top attractions in a short period of time. I had one day to knock out all of the must sees in Budapest. And this tour allowed me to do so. Don’t think twice do it.
