We had a great time exploring the Danube Bend. The Esztergom Cathedral was amazing and the castle / citadel was also a win. We recommend doing this before touring Budapest as it lays a great foundation for the history there.

Judith was the guide.
The time spent in each place of interest was completely miscalculated.

Gyuri was our guide from Cityrama . He was knowledgeable, and enthusiastic and ensured our trip lasting for approximately 8 hours was exciting. He provided excellent commentary on the historical background of every place we visited and we enjoyed the trip.

The design of the trip was great
However our guide was terrible.
He was supposed to do his description in Spanish French and English but he never got the description timed right. He would start in Spanish see something say oh yes in English then continue in Spanish never describing things in French or English.
He did not seem to care either he just faced front and spent the majority of the time chatting with the driver.
When we stopped and got off the bus he would describe the instructions in Spanish and then wave his hands at us to go.
At the last stop I finally said we need directions and a time to meet and the he described what we needed to know.
I felt he was very dismissive and really almost upset any time someone asked a question.
And there were two occasions he had the wrong dates. I knew because I started googling information so I would know what we were seeing.
Seeing the cathedral castle and artist town was great but I would say skip his tour you would learn more on your own
