Fantastic tour thank you. Bianca was absolutely brilliant, so friendly & knowledgeable and went above and beyond. The tour was way more than we were expecting, we got the chance to enter the castles and was given lots of interesting information. Bikes were very easy and fun to ride. Absolutely recommend.

Would definitely recommend this tour and company (e-magine rides). It’s a great and fun way of sightseeing and you get all the information you need about the sights you will see on the way. My tourguide was Atilla, he’s very relaxed and knowledgeable and made the tour even better! Afterwards he send me a whole document with places to visit in Budapest, recommended restaurants, etc. Great extra and very useful! :-)

Reviewer: Aletta – Netherlands

We really enjoyed our tour. The MonsteRoller E-Scooters are comfortable and easy and fun to ride. Our guide, Simon, was wonderful; he has a great personality and is very engaging and charismatic. He was excellent at giving us interesting facts and stories during the tour stops, and knows how to keep things brief and to-the-point so everyone stays engaged. He showed us unique parts of Budapest that we hadn't seen before and very interesting facts and perspective on Budapest's history and current affairs. He also kindly took photos and videos during the tour and AirDropped them to us afterwards. Thank you Simon for a wonderful time!

The tour was canceled because the service provider was unavailable.

traveler – Singapore

Poor organization; two scooters ran out of battery. No assistance or solution was provided.

traveler – Italy

Very basic!! Poor quality paths/technology/roads, I'm sorry to say.

traveler

The tour location and guide were good, with plenty of information provided. However, I had issues with the E-scooters. They aren't enjoyable to ride; the large, wide tires make turning somewhat challenging, and the spacious seats are simply terrible and extremely uncomfortable. No consideration for ergonomics went into designing them!!! I'd recommend opting for an E-bike tour instead.

Lothar – Germany

I didn't see much because the training took too long. The scooter isn't easy for anyone to learn, and it can be nerve-wracking riding next to cars. The guide was excellent, but the tour itself was too short in the end, with very few stops.
