Description

Join the first and original Night Tour of Buda Castle guided by a Gothic-attired storyteller, who will take you on a special experience framed by the Buda Castle walls. Stroll beneath the stars and slip into a world of legends, bloody history, dark creatures, and chilling tales that unfolded in the very streets you walk.

Far from the crowds of Pest, meet your actor guide and embark on your nighttime adventure. The tour starts from the bottom of the castle hill, but if you wish, you can meet the guide and group once they have reached the top.

Explore Budapest's enchanting history and admire the spectacular Buda Castle, where Hungarian rulers once toiled deep into the night. Hear stories of cruelty and learn about the despicable actions of Elizabeth Bathory, the bloody countess.

Discover how the infamous Vlad Dracula ended up in the prison of Buda Castle and journey into Hungary's dark past, where, according to legend, vampires and other creatures of the night roamed the streets and villages.

This tour will also give you an educational experience where you will hear about vampire chronicles, real facts and mythology. Your narrator will tell you legends and lore, linked to cases of vampirism in old Hungary, which gave birth to myths that lie between fantasy and chilling truth during the darkest periods of the history of central and eastern Europe.
