What To Expect

Explore the capital city of Hungary from behind the wheels of a Segway. Your guide will provide a shorter tour for a compact overview of Budapest, or a longer option including additional stops at landmarks like the Hungarian Parliament Building and Buda Castle, depending on your selection at checkout.

The basic Budapest Segway tour is a terrific introduction to the city and takes you past Széchenyi Istvan Square. You’ll also travel around central Pest and witness striking city architecture along the way.

The extended option provides extra time to discover the Buda Castle District across the river. Back in Pest you’ll see the bustling Andrassy Avenue, lined with shops and restaurants, as well as the Hungarian State Opera House and the towering edifice of St. Stephen’s Basilica. The evening Segway tour also includes special stops at Parliament and Margaret Island, a recreational oasis in the middle of the Danube.

Traveler Tips

Except for the need to use your feet quite a bit on the Segway, if you have no other limitations I would Highly recommend this form of viewing the city.

Segwayed into my heart

Nancy_S, Aug 2020

This was the perfect way to finish off our trip! Thomas was our guide and he was incredibly friendly and answered all our questions. I opted to ride a bike instead of a Segway since my balance isn’t great and I was able to keep up with the segways without breaking a sweat! Highly recommend and Thomas took extra precautions due to COVID which was appreciated!

Response from Host, Aug 2020

Thank you for the nice, personal review. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your tour with Thomas. Hope to see you again. Stay well, Eszter

What a Blast!

Joan J, Aug 2019

Kira was our guide, and she was wonderfully entertaining, friendly and kind. She taught us quickly how to use the Segways and we were off. Her knowledge of the attractions was impressive. She kept pace with us, and was accommodating when we needed to stop. Overall it was such a fun and great experience. I would, and will,do this again and again and again in many cities. Would highly recommend.

Segway Fun

Holly I, Jun 2019

I had a great time on my 1hr City Tour Segway experience ! Anna our guide was wonderful and she waited for the rain to stop before we started ! Very interesting and loads of photo opportunities! Recommend a great way to see the city !

Wonderful way to travel!

John_B, Jun 2019

Our guide, Kinga was wonderful. Being an older couple, over 65, I was a bit nervous about being capable of working the Segway. Kinga took her time letting us get used to the machine on the stores quiet side street beforehand. Having been in Budapest for a week, we had already seen quite a few sites. Kingo was kind enough to change the tour route so we took in the island and some additional parks and places we have not really been too. It was lovely and the speed was just right. We had many stops to rest and hear about particular buildings which was fun. Except for the need to use your feet quite a bit on the Segway, if you have no other limitations I would Highly recommend this form of viewing the city. I will use zebra tours again should we be lucky enough to return to Budapest and will definitely recommend this to friends.

salilbhargava, Sep 2018

HAd a superb time. Balint was great as a guide. We managed the Segway really easily and we had a 70 year old couple who managed it easily as well. They were on the 6th segway tour. A super way to see the city. Highly recommend it

Well worth doing

Ejallan, Jul 2018

This is the best sightseeing tour I’ve ever done.The guide Balint was great very informative and patient with me during the Segway training as it took me a while to get the hang of the segway.Would highly recommend.

Well done!

Lena_R, Jul 2018

Hunor was excellent. It was clear he’s very knowledgeable and knows far more than a script. He answered all our questions with a lot of good information. Additionally, the tour company was so accommodating. I screwed up the date and missed our tour. When I called they rebooked with no problem. So nice! A+ tour.

Awesome and knowledgeable guide...

Sanjay C, Mar 2018

Awesome and knowledgeable guide, even though I was the only person on the tour they still conducted the tour and the guide took me to many more places then what was mentioned... This is the best way to go around Budapest within a short time.

Kristen V, Feb 2018

Even with the questionable slushy snowy weather we had a blast. Bring gloves if you can, or buy them for a couple dollars at the meeting point if you forget them me. We had a great time learning to Segway, and the sites of Budapest were amazing. We even managed to show up at Parliament just in time to watch the changing of the guards! Our guide was Esther and she was quite knowledgeable. Ill always remember the year 1896 now!

Joseph D, Nov 2017

This was one of the best Segway tours we've done. We've done them in Norway, Mexico, Chicago and Coronado Island San Diego Christiana was a fantastic guide. We definitely recommend the 3 hour tour. After the 2 hour tour was finished, we were the only 2 left for the third hour. Christiana asked where we had been and she took us to see places we hadn't seen previously. After doing our first Segway tour in Norway, we look for them wherever we travel.

Alisha W, Nov 2017

Highly recommended! The sights we visited were beautiful and the same ones described in the tour package. It was extremely cold but our tour guide Tamas was amazing! He is very knowledgeable and high spirited and was very thorough with the segway training. He remained patient throughout the tour.

What fun!!!! I'd never ridden a Segway but will certainly do it again. Move through the city at lightning speed and see all the city's highlights in three hours. Michael Elton

kevin h, Oct 2017

Absolutely Amazing. If you are looking at this review, do it! Had a blast. The segway was scary at first, but after 5 minutes, it's so much fun. Our Tour Guide George is very knowledgeable. Zero Complaints, would do this again next time I am here. Thanks George.

Jane_S, Oct 2017

Great tour we had a mixed group a couple of seasoned segwayers and a couple of first timers Tamas was great looking after the more nervous and letting the more confident have a little fun. He tailored the tour to our needs fantastic, definitely recommend

Elizabeth_G, Sep 2017

A very interesting and educational tour as a result of George who was very knowledgable,patient and careful. He made sure everyone was safe on the tour. He is clearly very proud of the city and his country and made the morning very enjoyable and worthwhile, It enabled us to get a feel for the city and our bearings. This is our fourth Segway tour and it rates along side our very first one in Rome. Ensure you Trip is through Yellow Zebra as there are lots of other operators out there selling on the street and no uniform to identify which tour operator they represent watch out for the cowboy operators. Thanks George for making this a memorable experience.

BIanca D, Sep 2017

It was absolutely awesome, Highly recommend this tour. Our Guide Hunor was funny, knowledgeable and very good all in all. He made the tour interesting and exciting! We couldn't have had a better guide on this tour! The tour was well designed and showed all the highlights on the Pest side/

Tracy M, Sep 2017

Nothing was necessarily bad about the experience, but it is hard for me to rate it higher as our guide was difficult to understand. Also, while I got the hang of riding the Segway fairly quickly, I'll admit it was a bit hard to use and a bit daunting in that we rode right in the midst of pedestrians which seemed less than safe for all of us. Nonetheless, The training session was good and the people were very professional.
