Mini Statue Hunt In Budapest
5 (9)
From $245 EUR
This tour is a classical Budapest sightseeing program following the route of the Hungarian "guerilla" artist, Michael Kolodko's mini statues. It's a perfect program for first-time visitors because many of the statues are near to main attractions, but at the same time, it's a special experience, as others are located in the local neighborhoods. This walking tour is a real treasure hunt; while you look for the art pieces on the streets, you can admire beautiful attractions like the Chain bridge, and listen to the stories that the artist wants to tell us through his statues. The perfect combination: a bit of a general, a bit of the hidden gems.
