We are 4 women celebrating friendship in Budapest in June. We would like to dine at Fisherman’s Bastion on the 6th of June for either Lunch or Dinner as it will be our last night and we want to have fun. What do you recommend? Should we eat first and then tour or should we tour the castle and then eat? How do we make a dining reservation and are there tour guides you recommend to see the castle. There are many on the internet but we are not sure which is the best. Please advise soonest. Many thanks, Laura Anne
