Tour was excellent! Paul was very professional, and knowledgeable…We loved every minute of it! Highly recommended!
Thanks Simeon for today's trip to Budapest and Bratislava. You conducted a marvelous workshop as you shared your perspective of history while showing different iconic buildings and memorials. Simeon has excellent knowledge of history and balances well with authenticity and touristy information. I will recommend Simeon anytime to tourists who are planning to visit Austria and nearby countries
It was an amazing trip. Simeon is the best! He is very knowledgeable and truly knows the history of every place he took us to. He is kind, attentive, and very caring, and he took the time to answer all of our questions without rushing. I was actually very happy that the tour I had originally booked was canceled at the last minute, because it led me to this experience. I contacted Viator via WhatsApp, and they immediately took care of the situation. I told them I was already in Vienna and very disappointed that my trip had been canceled. They recommended this company, which still had one spot available, and the suggestion could not have been better. I was incredibly lucky that Simeon accepted me just one hour before the tour started. He speaks excellent English, knows the history in great depth, and you can truly tell that he enjoys what he does. I couldn’t have asked for a better guide or a better day.

Lots of history behind Budapest and Bratislava. We walked around with our guide, Simeon, who told us the significance of the buildings and statues. Simeon gave us lots of rests and recommendations for when to eat or what to do during our free time as well. As we were unexpectedly a private tour, he was also flexible with our timings so it was a really nice pace.
We had a wonderful experience visiting Budapest and Bratislava and the trip exceeded our expectations. Both cities are absolutely beautiful, rich in history, culture, and stunning architecture. The itinerary was well planned, giving us enough time to explore the key attractions while also enjoying the local atmosphere. A special mention goes to Simeon, our tour guide, who truly made the journey memorable. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and professional. His explanations were clear and engaging, and he was always patient and supportive with the group. Simeon went the extra mile to ensure everyone was comfortable and enjoyed the tour, sharing interesting historical insights as well as practical tips along the way. Overall, it was a fantastic trip, and I highly recommend this tour, especially with Simeon as the guide for anyone planning to visit Budapest and Bratislava.
Simeon was an excellent guide for Budapest and Bratislava. In fact, we liked him so much that we requested his availability for another day to tour Hallstatt and Salzburg, which he happily agreed to and was able to squeeze in impromptu during our last full day in Austria. What makes Simeon so special as a tour guide is the passion he carries toward the subjects he discusses. Simeon was aware that the history behind architecture and the sights of the places we visited was quite complex. However, to navigate this, he made sure that his explanations were clear and easy to follow. He also made sure to distinguish certain cultural aspects between “authentic” and “touristy”, which we appreciated since authentic aspects often get lost beneath the aesthetics of commercial tourism. Simeon always made sure we had more than enough time for pictures. He gave us designated time for us to explore the cities by ourselves to really take in the sights and eat proper meals. For this reason, we never felt rushed and always followed a reasonable schedule. Simeon was always looking out for us. Before leaving us to explore by ourselves, he made sure to give us restaurant recommendations as well as specific directions to help us find our way around the city to get to the different sights. Finally, Simeon was not afraid to be personable. He is curious about the different cultures and interests of the clients he tours and seeks to learn all he can about other parts of the world. Would definitely try to book Simeon again the next time we’re in the area!!
Excellent trip with Simon. Premium service, quality visits by a guide who loves his work and his capitals 👍 This was our first time in Budapest and Bratislava, Simon made us want to go back to discover even more. We highly recommend!
We had an amazing experience on our Vienna, Budapest and Bratislava day tour, thanks to our guide, Simon. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made every stop meaningful with his insights and stories. The small-group setup made the tour feel personal, and the van was very clean and comfortable, which made the long drive so much easier. Highly recommend this tour.
