First day in Budapest
On the first day I hired a private tour guide through Trip Advisor. Her name was Naomi (she was 32) She knew Hungarian history well having a degree in history and languages. As an independent traveller this is a formula I have developed if one is to spend a week in a major city. We visited most of the major tourist attractions but did not go into any churches or museums. More importantly she enabled me to buy a train ticket to Prague for next Thursday, to buy a ticket to a ballet (La fille mal gardee), learn how to get on the Metro and figure out which activities to undergo for the rest of the week.
