2 About us We started in 2014 because an idea came to us for a new way to introduce people to Budapest that we couldn't see on the market. This idea is to show the city as a local would but with good mobility and competent knowledge. Our guides are selected characters and experienced drivers with big knowledge of the city. They drive brand new Piaggio Calessino Ape s and these three wheeled vehicles are not just charming but also very capable of urban exploration. In our vehicle park we currently have nine TukTuks, each vehicle is comfortable for two to three people. The fleet can operate together perfectly for groups up to our full capacity - traveling in a group of many TukTuks on the streets of Budapest is unforgettable fun for every passengers. We created a colorful selection of tours to take our passengers through the city showing famous landmarks and hidden places on routes buses and masses never use. These tours are customizable by the passengers. You find them below. Among our customers we find the widest spectrum of people, there are lone travellers, couples, families, friend and business groups, young and old, from the four corners of the earth.
