Spend about five hours moving through Budapest’s late-night bar scene, with five complimentary shots, an English-speaking guide, and entry to Instant-Fogas, the city’s biggest ruin club. Guides such as Obi, Sagar, Lana, Philipp, and Anett are praised for keeping groups social, though the exact bars and group size can vary.

“So positives - Imran I would give 5 stars, he should be managing the tours, he’s great fun and knows how to build rapport with the guests! Change needed, - the first bar was rubbish, scrap it, it’s just a boring sports bar, also should meet at a bar and have a reserved area, not meet and then have a ten minute walk to the first rubbish bar! Not having any areas reserved to, all tours I’ve been in have had that. The third bar was great, more time should be spent there, it’s so cool and funky. I had fun thanks to imran and other people on tour but…”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 68 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $76

Spend about five hours walking between four Budapest ruin bars, where old buildings become lively drinking spots. Your English-speaking local guide shares urban legends and city history, pours a welcome shot at each bar, and leads you to a ruin club with VIP access. The tour begins and ends at Oktogon.

“We were 50 people. The guide did not even introduce himself. We walked to three very crowded noisy bars were we got a tiny little drink and coupons which are goot for nothing, paid full price for our drinks ang that's it. We learned nothing an heard nothing about the city, the history not even regarding the places we visited. A waste of time an money.”
