Danube Bend Tour (opens in a new tab)

4 9 h 30 min

A scenic drive takes you to the beautiful Danube Bend. One of the most scenic locations along the Danube is its curve in northern Hungary, an area of verdant hills dotted with historical towns and villages. Your first stop takes you to the Esztergom Basilica—one of the largest churches in the world. We cross the river and the border to Slovakia to have a stunning view from the opposite side. Continue to Visegrád Castle Hill and take in spectacular views of lush hills and the curve of the river at a panoramic point. Sit back and relax in a nearby restaurant and have a 3-course Hungarian lunch with mineral water before moving on. Arrive in the delightful baroque town of Szentendre. Walk the enchanting cobbled streets lined by art galleries, craft shops, and cafés. Return to central Budapest by a riverboat during the summer season (between 1st May - 27th September and only Friday-Saturday-Sunday) or in the comfort of your heated bus in winter.

Half day Budapest city tour by car / minivan (opens in a new tab)

32 4 h

You can see the most important sights of Budapest during this 4-hour long tour. I recommend this program those who have only a short time or want to explore the city alone and need just an orientation. During such a city tour you can decide what you want to see more thoroughly, where you want to go back or you can simply measure the distances. Sightseeing by car is more comfortable and less tiring - and allows more time to spend in all places. If you are more in number than 3, a comfortable minivan with a driver can be arranged for you.
