What to expect

You'll drive to Heroes Square, stop at the Buda Castle district, visit the Citadel viewpoint, and pass the State Opera House, with the guide narrating history and cultural context throughout. The tour focuses on sightseeing from the minivan and brief exterior stops rather than lengthy interior visits — entrance fees to attractions aren't included, so entry is optional.
