This post is written on the 9th of March so all the information in it is from today, although things are changing very rapidly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> As for now there are 9 cases in Hungary. I&#8217;m checking the updates of country specific COVID-19 Information of the US Department of State. According to the updates Hungary is not listed among countries to where travelling is not recommended:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hu.usembassy.gov\/covid-19\/\">https:\/\/hu.usembassy.gov\/covid-19\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m also monitoring WHO&#8217;s dashboard on the COVID-19 situation in Europe:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/who.maps.arcgis.com\/apps\/opsdashboard\/index.html#\/ead3c6475654481ca51c248d52ab9c61\">https:\/\/who.maps.arcgis.com\/apps\/opsdashboard\/index.html#\/ead3c6475654481ca51c248d52ab9c61<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are the facts. I know that personal sentiments and concerns are different from the facts and that many of you are worried. To be honest, I&#8217;m worried, too. Not because of the virus, as I&#8217;m sure we&#8217;ll be over it very soon, now I&#8217;m more concerned about my business and the business of my tour guide friends and colleagues in different countries of the world and I&#8217;m also worried about my partners, drivers, tour operators and travel agents. We are in trouble and can&#8217;t even calculate our losses yet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What I can do for you taking into consideration saving my business is that <strong>from now on<\/strong> all the tour requests have to go through my website and <strong>only tours booked on my website are confirmed<\/strong>. As you know the deposit is only EUR 30, which is probably not a big amount of money in your travel budget but it gives me some reassurance about your travel plans. <strong>The deposit is non-refundable if you cancel the tour within 30 days of the actual tour date<\/strong>. If you decide to cancel the tour because you&#8217;re concerned about COVID-19 and book a tour with me within the next 12 months, I&#8217;ll deduct it from the tour price. Please note that future bookings are subject to my availability!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again, this policy is only valid until the situation changes, I&#8217;ll of course re-evaluate it when necessary. I hope this is acceptable for all my dear travellers and that we&#8217;ll have amazing tours together the next couple of months and later in 2020!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve been very hesitant about publishing this post but I&#8217;m getting so many worrying messages and cancellations that I think the time has come to publish what I think and what I, as a private Budapest tour guide can do to reassure you.
