FAQ

Do I need to speak Hungarian to go on a tour?

No, it isn’t a requirement. If you know a little Hungarian, it would be helpful.

How does the flight portion of the trip work?

We let you make your own arrangements, and we will arrange to pick you up in Budapest at the airport!

Is there a lot of walking on the tours?

There is a fair bit of walking. It is important to plan ahead and start walking a bit more in preparation for our tours. Of course, check with your doctor first. But, there are some amazing things to see and do while in Hungary and you will want to be able to enjoy as much as you can.

What is the currency of Hungary?

Hungary predominantly uses Forints, although you can often use Euros. It is important to not plan on only using a credit card because when we are out in the countryside, small businesses don’t always take credit cards.
