Get an historical overview of the Buda Castle District, walking through the small cobblestone streets and squares with a professional local guide.  On this small group tour, you'll get a feel for its medieval aspects from the first stone laid to present day use.

Your guide will lead you through the castle area and its historical points,  occupations and roles it played throughout Hungarian history, taking you back in time to see how Castle Hill was originally built and designed.  You'll come to understand how the whole area was used over the centuries by many different cultures and nations.  Walk through these major historical points and learn how the castle district survived and helped its inhabitants defend and live through invasions and occupations for centuries.

You will see the major sights including Royal Palace, the Presidential palace, Disz  Square, Holy Trinity Square, Hess Andras Square and Fisherman's Bastion.  Your guide will also show you around inside the Matthias Church and tell its stories and legends.  The group will also take a break for coffee and cake in a cozy cafe of the Castle District.
