This tour offers you a nice getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city, and you will enjoy mother nature. The 30 minutes ride on the chairlift will be a unique experience and you will enjoy a stunning view.The hills of Buda offer a calm and relaxing area with the fresh air. It is always a little bit cooler in the hills in a height of 500 meters or 1600 feet it is a nice getaway during the hot summer days. There is only a short 10 minutes walk to the tower which is steep, if you walk regulary it is an easy task but if you do not walk regulary it might be a challenge. With transportation of a Minivan and guidance of a local guide you can experience the beauty of this area which is in a National park. This is a favorite recreational spot among locals but hardly known by foreign visitors as it is a little bit far from the city, that is why we will use a private van for transport.
