Pros
+
Super family-friendly: the tour is designed for parents with babies under one, so crying, feeding, and diaper breaks are totally okay
+
Very affordable at about $5.60 including museum admission—great value for a top-tier European museum
+
Topic is seasonally charming and easy to connect with for Americans familiar with Christmas art and Nativity themes
+
The Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest is a major, reputable institution that many tourists already put on their list
+
No pre-registration stress—you can just show up, and they even have a few strollers to borrow
+
Central city location with good public transport links; taxis and rideshares are plentiful, and driving/parking is manageable by European city standards
+
English-speaking staff are common at this museum, and the event title/info suggests a visitor-friendly setup, so you likely won’t need Hungarian - The exact tour language isn’t explicitly stated; if it’s only in Hungarian, nuanced discussion of the art may be hard to follow
Cons
–
Capacity is capped at 24, so popular sessions could fill up; arriving early with a baby can be tricky
–
It’s narrowly targeted to new parents—other travelers or families with older kids may find it too specific
–
Compared to baby-friendly museum programs in the U.S., amenities like guaranteed stroller access or nursing rooms may feel more limited and first-come-first-served
