Step-by-step itinerary

Pub crawl through Budapest ruin bars

• Visit multiple famous ruin bars
• Enjoy 40-minute unlimited drinks
• End at a local ruin club

The experience

You start the evening at a ruin bar (one of Budapest's defining nightlife spots, built inside abandoned buildings and courtyards), and work through several of the city's most famous ones with a local guide who knows which ones are worth the crowd and which ones have the better pour. The crawl lasts five hours and moves at a pace that lets you actually talk to the people you're with, not just rush between stops.

The 40-minute unlimited drinks window happens at one of the ruin bars along the route: beer, wine, premium shots and long drinks all included, so you're not calculating what to order or watching the tab climb. You end up in a local ruin club, which is where the night usually gets louder and the crowd younger than the earlier stops.

The guide speaks English and steers the group through the bars. You're not wandering on your own or following a map. Public transportation runs near the starting point if you need it to get there, and the minimum age is 18.
