“Paris of the East” is one of the most famous sentences used when describing Budapest at night. The magnificent buildings and sights all glowing and illuminated at night just give this city a totally different feeling than what you’ll experience during the day. The Night Stroll is designed to take you along a path where you see the best parts of the city by night for some of the most terrific photo ops.

You’ll not only learn about these grandiose sights but hear stories surrounding them and the Hungarians with all their crazy history bits like: Who is the first vampires? What did she do? How did she do it? Was Attila the Hun really a Hungarian? What is our relation with him? Who was he and how did he die? Where did the Hungarians really come from? What is the myth behind our ancestors? Why are we so different compared to our neighbors in Europe? All these compelling facts and questions will be answered and more as we stroll along the illuminated city.

At the end of the tour we cap off the evening with a one hour boat cruise ticket on the Danube with a free drink of choice from the drink list!
