Cons
Gödöllő itself isn't a household name for U.S. tourists, so it might not wow friends back home as much as hitting major Euro landmarks
Some tours kick off at 9 PM, which is kinda late for families with little ones wanting early bedtimes
Separate tickets needed for special family tours, bumping up the cost beyond basic entry
