We are open for all age groups. However, we do not recommend the tours for children under 12 (unless they are exceptional musical talents), as the tour might be too tiring and lengthy for them, and the topic perhaps less than ideal for youngsters. 

However, if you decide to bring children under 12, please, understand that the guide has the right to ask you to leave the tour at any time should the behaviour of your children be considered to be detrimental to the enjoyment of the tour by other participants (see Terms and Conditions).

Minors (children under 18 in Hungary) must be accompanied by an adult. It is against the Hungarian law to serve alcohol for people under 18, please, bear this in mind when booking the Liszt&Wine Tour.

The walking tours are not physically demanding. However, you’ll need to be fit enough to walk for around two-three hours (subject to the tour you selected) on relatively flat ground. 

If you have symptoms, for the sake of other guests, please consult us in advance, and we will try to arrange a rescheduling or a refund.

Guests with wheel-chairs, please, read the relevant section in this FAQs.

In order to ensure that you are part of a group of a manageable size, and in order to stay on the safe side in terms of safety, we set 15 persons as the maximum limit. This makes the tours more personable and you can maximise enjoyment.
