Mysteries and Legends of Budapest Tour
Description
Get ready to uncover the mysterious and haunting side of Budapest, the enchanting "Pearl of the Danube." As the sun sets, the city's romantic charm takes a backseat, revealing a darker and tormented past. Meet at the Kilometer 0 stone of Clark Adam Square, where our guide, dressed in attire from bygone eras and carrying a lantern, will lead us on an exhilarating journey through the secrets and legends of the Buda quarter.
We'll wander along the slopes of Buda Castle Hill, delving into the eerie tales of its shadowy inhabitants. Discover the chilling connection between Vlap Tepes, the infamous Wallachian prince who inspired Bram Stoker's Count Dracula, and the Buda district itself. Brace yourself for the shocking story of Countess Erzsébet Báthory, who harbored an obsession with youth and resorted to unspeakable acts, including the alleged murder of over 600 young girls.
After two hours of captivating exploration, our tour will culminate at the Fisherman's Bastion. From this vantage point, marvel at the mesmerizing nighttime panorama of the Danube River as it winds its way through Budapest.
As the tour comes to an end, we'll bid you farewell and provide directions to return to the meeting point.
