The Experience

The first thing I remember is wobbling a little outside the getsegway.hu office on Galamb Street, helmet slightly crooked, trying not to look as nervous as I felt. Our guide, Zoltán, grinned and promised we’d all be pros by the time we hit Andrássy Avenue. He was right — after a few minutes of practice (and one near miss with a pigeon), it started to feel like second nature. The city felt different from this height, gliding past the Parliament building’s spires while the river breeze carried hints of roasted chestnuts from a nearby vendor.

We zipped across Elisabeth Bridge — honestly, I didn’t expect that view of the Danube to hit so hard. Zoltán pointed out the Zero Kilometre Stone and told us how it marks the center of Hungary’s road system. There was this moment at Liberty Square where he paused and shared stories about old protests there; you could almost hear echoes in the open space. I tried to say “Szabadság Tér” like he did but just got a laugh (my accent’s hopeless). The Hungarian State Opera House looked even grander up close than in photos — gold trim catching late sunlight, people hurrying past in every direction.

Somewhere along Andrássy Avenue we stopped for window shopping — or really just gawking at boutique displays I’d never afford. The Segways made us feel both out of place and weirdly at home among locals rushing by with their own routines. By the time we reached St. Stephen’s Basilica, my legs had that good kind of tired, like after a long walk but without any blisters. Zoltán snapped some group photos for us (he insisted on getting everyone’s “best side,” which led to more laughter than actual posing). I still think about that golden light over Adam Clark Square as we finished up — Budapest felt familiar and new all at once.
