Let’s discover both sides of the city — Buda and Pest — together!
We’ll start our walking tour at St. Stephen’s Basilica, one of the city’s most iconic landmarks. From there, we’ll pass through Liberty Square and continue to the Hungarian Parliament, famous for its breathtaking architecture and riverside views.
Next, we’ll visit the Shoes on the Danube Bank, a touching memorial honoring the victims of World War II. From here, we’ll enjoy a beautiful panorama of the Buda side — with Buda Castle, Fisherman’s Bastion, and Matthias Church (outside view).
Then we're heading to Széchenyi Square, and from there we’ll cross the Chain Bridge, one of Budapest’s most beautiful landmarks, offering unforgettable views of both sides of the city.
Our tour will end at the Várkert Bazár (Castle Garden Bazaar) — a stunning 19th-century architectural gem at the foot of Castle Hill. From here, there’s direct access up to Buda Castle in just a few minutes, making it the perfect finishing point for our journey through the heart of Budapest.
Hope to see you soon! :)

Budapest in Winter: Cold-Weather Guide and 3-Day Plan
Budapest in winter is exceptionally rewarding for travellers who appreciate outdoor thermal baths in freezing weather, lower accommodation rates, and classic seasonal markets. Although days are short and temperatures regularly hover around freezing, the city's grand architecture, world-renowned indoor bathhouses, and hearty comfort food make it well worth a trip between December and February.
