Beer bike tour vs Beer Bus tour

You surely have heard legends about the famous beer bike tours in Budapest. But now you can’t find any trace of it in the Budapest Downtown? Let us explain what happened with the beer bikes, and also offer something even cooler so you won’t have sleepless nights wondering about the experience that you’ve missed.

Long story short: instead of the Beer Bike tours now you can join Beer Bus tours!

Story of the Beer bike tours

Beer bikes were a thing in Budapest, they made crazy, unforgettable memories to many beerlovers and adventure seekers. People from all around the world were looking for it, when planning a holiday in Hungary. We loved this buzz as well, not surprisingly we had the greatest Beer Bike fleet in Budapest. Those were the good old days…

Unfortunately beer bike tours also became victims to the strict regulation made in the Party District, and they were banned from the Downtown. Of course we didn’t give up, so we moved them to a private area, where beer bikes still could operate. As the time passed on, beer bikes were banned from more and more places. We tried our best to find new areas, but then the time came when we had to make the decision, as we didn’t want to lower the quality of our service. This way the biggest Beer Bike fleet disappeared from the city, now you only can find similar tours in the outer, deserted zones of the capital.

But don’t worry even for a minute, we got your back and have something even better for you: try out the Beer Bus! Let’s see all the advantages of the Beer Bus, and by the time you reach the bottom of the list, it won’t be a question that you need this experience!

BIKE

Capacity

The full capacity of the Beer Bike was 16 people, the minimum number of passengers was 4 people.

The full capacity of our Beer Bus is 40 people, more people = more fun. However you even can buy a single ticket for yourself, or if you want the whole experience just for you and your friends, you also can hire the party bus for a private Beer Bus ride!

Tour length

Beer Bike tours were approximately 1,5 hours long.

The Beer Bus rides for an hour in Budapest Downtown reaching all the major sights. Your Beer Bus tour is also a sightseeing tour now!

Price

Those beer bikes that are still available cost 35 € / person including transfer price, as they are far away from the Downtown of Budapest.

The Beer Bike cost 160 € / group. The group size did not affect the price, which means you have to pay the same price whether there were 15 people with you or just 4.

The Beer Bus tours cost 25 € / person. If you are travelling alone, you can book single tickets for yourself.

Drinks

The amount of beer was limited to 20 or 30 litres / trip on the Beer Bike.

On the Beer Bus we offer unlimited beer, and what is more, you may tap your own beer while riding around the city!

Booking

Beer Bike tours were fully packed on the weekends, and only two of them operated at the same time. Booking a ticket well before the date was a must.

On the other hand the Beer Bus is much bigger and departs more frequently, so you even may book a ticket for today if you are looking for a fun activity asap!

Sight

Unfortunately, Beer Bikes were not allowed in the Downtown of Budapest, that’s why they could only be used in separated areas, like our leisure park. You couldn’t visit any of the famous sights during the beer bike tour.

The Beer Bus goes on a one-hour trip around the city, including all the famous sights of Budapest. Check out the whole route of Beer Bus Budapest.

Groups

The Beer Bike provided private tours with your friends. You must invite at least three friends of yours to attend the Beer Bike tours.

However you can join the Beer Bus tour even if you are alone. Now you have the chance to meet new people from all around the world! If you’re looking for an exclusive Beer Bus experience, you also can hire the whole bus.

Music

One had to bring your own music to the Beer Bike.

On the board of Beer Bus music service is included in the price.

Activities

For clear reasons everybody had to pedal the Beer Bike to make it move. If you didn’t feel fit enough, it wasn’t your thing for sure.

However on the Beer Bus you don’t have to worry about getting exhausted. The only sport activity is using the beer tap!
