Fog hangs low over the Danube in the morning, and the city opens like a map beneath you: bridges arcing, rooftops angling toward the river, and the Castle of Buda rising on its hill as if to watch over the flow. This Student Group tour cuts a practical arc through that view—cross the river, climb the old streets (or hop a short bus ride), and stand on the Royal Palace terrace where Parliament glints across the water.
