The iconic Royal Palace is one of the most well-known sights in Budapest. Many people refer to it as the Buda Castle but did you know that the actual medieval Castle is well-hidden underneath? By entering the Museum we can explore the history of this stunning building from within, visit the Medieval Royal Chapel and watch centuries of history come to life. Enter the world of kings and queens, discover how the independent Hungarian spirit dealt with the Turkish, Habsburg, German, and Soviet occupation and how history shaped this stunning building and the lives of those residents in the Castle District. Visit the surrounding gardens, walk in the footsteps of Sisi and listen to stories of how this era was erased during Communism like it never existed. I'll show you WW2 photos so you can see how badly damaged the Palace was but yet again reborn after several years of excavation works.
I'll meet you at your hotel (Option1) OR you can make your own journey to the Castle District (Option 2). This is a three-hour guided tour inside and around the Royal Palace. I will take you through the centuries and will introduce you to the important historical figures and events that influenced its history and architecture. Discover our connection to Austria, the rise and fall of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy and the most loved Habsburgs in Hungary. Please be aware that there are many stairs and it's rather cold in the basement even in summer. **This itinerary can be customized to suit your needs. Do not hesitate to contact me.
