Segway ride through the Old City
Traveling with us on a Segway, you will see the most important landmarks of Budapest without effort. On this tour we visit both parts of the Hungarian capital, which the Danube divides. We ride along the cozy streets of the new center and cross the river over Elisabeth Bridge to reach the oldest district of Buda, with its remarkable 19th-century architecture. On Castle Hill we find the Fisherman’s Bastion, built in the neo-Romanesque style on a stretch of the old Buda Castle walls. In the Middle Ages this part of the castle was defended by the guild of fishermen, hence the name. We also visit Buda Castle, known for its mix of architectural styles from different historical eras. Riding across the Chain Bridge, you will see the Danube and both the old and the new parts of Budapest. We stop to admire the Hungarian Parliament Building and finish with a refreshing ride along the embankment. Relax and enjoy the tour as you move easily around the city center on a Segway.
History of the past
Our Segway tour starts with a beautiful ride across Elisabeth Bridge over the Danube to the statue of Queen Elisabeth, located in a cozy little park on the western side of the city. We will continue our journey along the Buda embankment and smoothly climb up to the Fisherman’s Bastion, where we can explore Matthias Church and Buda Castle, both rightfully considered to be the main architectural treasures of Budapest. Going down the Castle Hill with a breeze, we will arrive at the Chain Bridge, the very first bridge that connected the cities of Buda and Pest. Over this bridge we will cross to the other side and find ourselves at the largest building in Hungary, the spectacular Parliament of Budapest. Later on we will stop by Liberty Square on the way to St. Stephen’s Basilica, the main Catholic cathedral of the city. At the end of this wonderful tour, we will have a fun ride past the Ferris wheel on return to the office.
