Once confident, you'll set off along the Danube embankment heading towards Buda's hills, riding at a steady pace alongside the river. The route takes you up to Fisherman's Bastion, where you'll pause to take in the panoramic views of the city lit up at night, then continue to the Chain Bridge and back via Elizabeth Bridge, with your guide providing commentary throughout.
