Great way to see the major sites of Budapest. Makes the hilly Buda side of the river much easier to visit. Traffic was absolute fine.
Informative guide
Bikes were OK but not the best

Ok to start of on a positive note:the excellent quality of the e-bikes bike and the friendly lady upon arrival at the shop.
Our experience with Oliver our tour guide was really unpleasant : he was knowledgeable but also strongly opinionated( not in a good way ) and judgy. He also had very ‘interesting’ political views he shared unsolicited ( about Western European countries , about politics in the US). When asked of he could slow down because the whole group could not keep up with the pace , he was dismissive and rude.
I would definitely not advise to book this e-ride . There are a lot of companies in Budapest offering E-bike tours with more professional and pleasant tour guides.

Loved the bikes and loved our guide….full of facts and knowledge. Just a few too many stop/starts! The highlight was the moving ‘shoes by the Danube’

Once again by booking a bike tour for our first day in a new city we were delighted by the experience. In a sudden downpour we got to relive experiences like children playing. We hid under ancient passageways near the fisherman's lookout. We visited spots that I'd not learned of in the multiple videos about Budapest I'd watched planning for the trip. Our guide was knowledgeable with some great stories about the royal characters of the past. Evokes we're the way to go propelling us up hills easily

The best way to see Budapest is on a bike with a guide who knows a lot about the city👍! We had that guide and super bikes! The tour lasted a bit too long, three hours would be enough, and that was what we expected, not four hours.

Had a great trip around the main sites of beautiful Budapest.
The bikes were really good, and very new
Our guide Baliant was really informative.
It was raining at the start but we were given ponchos which worked a treat.
Would definitely recommend.

First time in Budapest, first time on an electric bike for both me & my wife. The tour consisted of a tour guide Oliver & 8 clients, unfortunately some had not ridden a cycle for many years, also English was not some clients first language. So progress was very slow at times. Oliver was very informative, having been raised within Budapest. The tour did progress as fast as possible considering the skill level of some clients but we didn't manage to see everything.
Assessment of the tour was very good, Assessment of electric bikes useful on hills but you can ride without the electric power, as one of the riders from the USA did. We all waited at the top of Buda Castle hill to give her a round of applause.
