Full description

This full-day tour of the mighty Danube is ideal for people who want to combine history with nature and would like to enjoy some of the most beautiful countrysides in Hungary. You will see historic monuments and art memorials while your guide provides a lively narrative of Hungarian life. You will visit the 750-year-old Royal Residence at Visegrád where you will learn about life in the Middle Ages while enjoying spectacular views of the Danube Valley. At Esztergom, the northern gate of Budapest, you will pause at the largest cathedral in the country and see the burial sites of famous cardinals as you gaze across the water towards Slovakia. Cross the river and border into Slovakia to see the stunning view from the opposite side.  You will stop at an artists' village in Szentendre, a baroque city located where the Danube River meets the Pilis Mountains. Wander the narrow streets to soak up the magical atmosphere and catch panoramic vistas of the river. You will have time to visit some of the museums, such as the world-famous Margit Kovács Ceramic Museum or the Confectionery Museum, where the buildings and people are made of marzipan. Browse the shops of the village if you prefer, before the return journey to Budapest. Travel during the months of May through September and this will be on a magical boat cruise, a fitting way to arrive back in the city center. In case of low water levels, the return to Budapest will be by bus.

Includes
  • Pickup (if option selected)
  • Guide
  • Lunch (3-course menu with water)

Another exceptional trip and a highly recommended one. The weather was atrocious but the bus ride was great with our small group. We started in the city and very soon we were near the Slovakia border. Excellent views and post that we went to Visegrad which was an excellent place. We had lunch there which could have been better. The guide was also very good and explained every little detail related to history of all the places we visited. Being a history buff it was very informative for me. Thank you for the experience.

I enjoyed the tour and visiting important monuments. The coach was comfortable and the picture stops were plentiful. The three-course meal was okay. I enjoyed the main course the most. Budapest is a beautiful place. The tour guide was funny and knowledgeable, a pleasant chap. This is good value for money.

We would definitely recommend this trip to people who would like to see 3 towns in 1 day. Although we were not able to see every single detail of each town, we were able to have a glimpse into the 3 towns. Our tour guide was brilliant and was full of information and fun facts for us about every place we visited. The lunch had a great view on top of the mountain with large portions, we were definitely full after the 3 courses! The only downside to the trip was we wished we could have spent longer in Szentendre as we were only there for 1 hour, although as Budapest residents we will be able to visit again. We would really recommend this trip!
