Budapest Danube Bend Full Day Tour with Lunch
Overview
We invite you for a scenic tour to the ‘cradle of Hungary’ to merge in history! We take a ride to the former royal towns of Hungary. In Esztergom from Cathedral Hill you can enjoy the best view opening onto the river and to Slovakia. You may visit the Cathedral, the largest Roman Catholic church of Hungary. We cross the river and the border to Slovakia to have the stunning view from the opposite side.
We proceed to Visegrád, the heart of the Danube Bend, where we will treat you with 3-course lunch. Our restaurant overlooks the river bend and the famous castle that was once a seat of the Hungarian kings. We pass by Solomon Tower, once the prison of Count Dracula.
The tour continues to Szentendre. Explore the town of artists and arts, famous for its museums, bars, cafés and boutiques.
Return by boat is available between May 1st and September 27th. Return by bus is available between April 1st and May 20th, and from September 11th to October 31st on Wednesdays.
