Starting at the Visegrad Citadel, a formal royal residence and fort, we take a walk in the castle museum and admire the view of the grand S-curve of the river Danube.
The next stop is Esztergom, near the Slovak border, where we have a traditional 3-course Hungarian lunch, and explore the largest church of Hungary, giving home to the seat of the Catholic Church in the country.
After lunch we continue to Szentendre, a historical Baroque artists' village offering a variety of programmes, such as wine-tasting, museums and shopping. The small, colourful Baroque buildings, wine cellars, unique museums, art galleries, cafeterias and shops create a unique atmosphere. During our trip we will see the world famous Caprice diamond processor and the museum, which also possesses a shop. Here you will hear a short multimedia presentation about Hungarian history and jewelers, as well as the curiosities of diamond making.
We will also visit an interesting museum, where you will be able to see key figures of the Hungarian history, embroidered cushions, story characters, famous buildings and people coming alive from marzipan. After the visit to the Marzipan Museum you will have an opportunity to drink coffee and beverages.
Your tour returns to Budapest by the Danube river boat (between April 1st and September 30th). Outside these dates or in case of low or high tide, you will return to the city centre by air-conditioned coach.
