They offer a guided walking tour which allows the tourist to see the beauty of the country as well as delve into some of its secrets. The organisation is made up of an independent group of professional local tour guides - offering a relaxed and informal way to see the sites at a price you can definitely afford.  In addition to their free tours, the group also has special low-cost tours as well as personal tour guide services offered in 25 different languages..

From the UK, cheap flights to Budapest are available through several airlines including Lufthansa, Austrian, KLM, and Air France. Flights leave regularly through all of the major UK airports, including London Heathrow, Manchester, and Doncaster-Sheffield.

In addition to providing free and low-cost walking tours, the Budapest Backpackers will also help you find accommodation within the Budapest area; including a wide selection of hotels, apartments, and backpacker hostels and dorm beds - something to suit every age, intent, and pocket book.
