I regret not starting with this activity 7 days ago when I landed here, Gyuri was amazing very helpful, knowledgeable and also very considerate to the fact this was our first hiking (my sister and I), he picked us up and dropped us at the hotel as well, I can’t recommend this activity any more, but I can’t wait to bring my whole family to try this together, the breath taking landscape view in the river with the Kayak left me speechless and almost cried lol! You have to try it if you ever in Budapest !!”
