Step by Step

The tour starts in the centre of Budapest, where an air-conditioned vehicle will comfortably take you to Lake Balaton, the largest lake in Central Europe and a favourite destination for Hungarians. Throughout the day, you will enjoy a combination of culture, scenery and relaxing moments in the region.

The first stop will be the picturesque Tihany peninsula, where you will take an outdoor visit to the Tihany Abbey, a Benedictine monastery founded in the 11th century. From its elevated location, the views over the lake are breathtaking and perfect for taking pictures.

Next, you'll head to the spa town of Balatonfüred, famous for its classical elegance and history as a wellness destination. There you will stroll along the Tagore Promenade, a charming promenade full of life, history and swans that you can feed while enjoying the surroundings.

One of the highlights will be the one-hour boat ride on the lake, a chance to see the region from a different perspective, relax and enjoy the natural scenery. Afterwards, you will have free time for lunch at one of the lakefront restaurants (lunch not included).

At the end, you will return to Budapest in the same vehicle, concluding the day in the city centre, full of new experiences and unforgettable photos.
