Explore Budapest and Hungary at your own pace — with a professional, English-speaking driver and a comfortable private vehicle or coach, tailored to your group size.
A classic introduction to the Hungarian capital. Your driver will pick you up at your hotel or any location of your choice and take you through the city's most iconic landmarks: the Parliament building, Buda Castle and the Royal Palace, Fisherman's Bastion, Matthias Church, Andrássy Avenue, Heroes' Square and the Chain Bridge. Perfect for first-time visitors who want to see the highlights without the constraints of a group tour.
Experience the "Paris of the East" after dark, when the city's bridges, Parliament and castle district are beautifully illuminated. Includes a stop at Gellért Hill and the Citadel for a panoramic view over the lit-up city — one of the most memorable sights in Central Europe.
A moving and fascinating journey through Budapest's rich Jewish heritage. We take you through the former Jewish Quarter, past New Leopold Town, and to the Dohány Street Synagogue — the second largest in the world. The tour includes the Jewish Museum and the Emanuel Tree memorial. Lunch at a traditional kosher restaurant is available on request.
Budapest sits on more than 100 natural hot springs, and its historic bathhouses are an experience unlike any other. We transfer you to the bath of your choice — Széchenyi, Gellért, Rudas or Lukács — and collect you afterwards. Ideal as an add-on to any city tour or as a standalone half-day programme.
A focused tour of Budapest's political and architectural heart, including the magnificent neo-Gothic Parliament building — one of the largest in the world — the surrounding Kossuth Square, and the imposing ministerial buildings of the Lipótváros district.
One of the most beloved day trips from Budapest, this full-day excursion follows the Danube northward into some of Hungary's most beautiful scenery. We visit Szentendre, a charming town of artists, galleries and Orthodox churches; Visegrád, with its medieval citadel and Renaissance royal palace high above the river; and Esztergom, home to Hungary's largest cathedral and its ancient former capital. An ideal programme for culture and nature lovers alike.
A shorter but equally rewarding excursion to the picturesque town of Szentendre, combining a stroll through its cobblestone streets and art galleries with a visit to the Skanzen — Hungary's largest open-air folk museum, where traditional village life from across the country is authentically recreated.
A half-day trip to the Baroque royal palace of Gödöllő, the favourite summer residence of Empress Sisi (Elisabeth of Austria). The palace and its beautifully restored state apartments offer a fascinating window into Austro-Hungarian imperial life. Easy to combine with a stop in the surrounding countryside.
A visit to Hollókő, a perfectly preserved traditional village in the Northern Uplands and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, offering a rare glimpse into authentic Hungarian rural life from the 18th and 19th centuries. Best combined with a visit to Eger for a full day's programme.
A full-day journey to one of Hungary's most beloved cities: Eger, with its dramatic hilltop castle, beautifully preserved Baroque architecture and world-famous wine cellars in the "Valley of Beautiful Women." The tour includes a guided walk through the old town and a wine tasting session with local varieties, including the renowned Egri Bikavér (Bull's Blood).
One of our most scenic full-day programmes. We begin on the Tihany Peninsula, a place of extraordinary beauty jutting into the lake, where the 11th-century Benedictine Abbey — founded by King Andrew I in 1055 — still crowns the hilltop above the water. The village below is famous for its lavender fields, folk pottery and sweeping Balaton panoramas. From Tihany, we continue along the northern shore into the Balaton Uplands, a landscape of ancient volcanic hills, sun-drenched vineyards and traditional wine villages. In Badacsony or the surrounding area, we stop for a wine tasting of the distinctive, mineral-rich whites that this volcanic soil produces unlike anywhere else in Hungary. The tour can be rounded off with a lakeside lunch before the return to Budapest.
A journey into the soul of Hungary: the great open plain of the Hortobágy, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to Hungary's most ancient traditions of horsemanship, cattle herding and folk culture. Includes a visit to a traditional csárda (roadside inn) and, seasonally, displays of the famous Hungarian horse shows. Perfect for guests seeking something genuinely off the beaten path.
A full-day excursion to the Tokaj wine region, also a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where Hungary's legendary dessert wines — the "wine of kings, king of wines" — have been produced for centuries. The tour includes a guided visit to historic wine cellars carved deep into volcanic rock, wine tasting, and a drive through the picturesque vineyard villages of the Zemplén hills.
A longer but rewarding full-day trip to Pécs in southern Hungary — one of the country's most culturally rich cities, with Roman ruins, a stunning medieval cathedral, Ottoman-era mosques and a vibrant arts scene. Pécs was a European Capital of Culture in 2010 and remains one of Hungary's most underrated destinations.
A half or full-day trip to Győr, Hungary's fourth-largest city and one of its finest Baroque townscapes, situated at the confluence of three rivers. The journey can be extended to include the Benedictine abbey of Pannonhalma — a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the oldest monasteries in Central Europe, with a history stretching back over a thousand years.
Austria's imperial capital is just 2.5 hours from Budapest by private car, making it an entirely comfortable day trip. We take you to Vienna's grandest sights: the Ringstrasse, the Habsburg Imperial Palace (Hofburg), St. Stephen's Cathedral, the Vienna State Opera and the elegant Graben promenade. For those who wish to go deeper, the tour can be extended to include Schönbrunn Palace and its gardens. A full day in Vienna with a private driver gives you the freedom to linger where you wish — without the constraints of a coach tour or public transport.
Slovakia's charming capital sits just 200 kilometres from Budapest and barely an hour from Vienna, making it one of the most accessible day trips in the region. Bratislava's compact old town is best explored on foot, and we drop you right in the heart of it: the medieval castle perched above the Danube, the lively main square, the Gothic Cathedral of St. Martin and the quirky street sculptures that have become the city's trademark. Relaxed, unhurried and surprisingly rich in character.
For the most ambitious day-trippers, we offer a single itinerary that takes in both capitals in one day. The route naturally lends itself to a morning in Bratislava — just 200 km from Budapest — followed by an afternoon in Vienna, or vice versa. It is a long but deeply rewarding day, and one that very few visitors think to arrange. With a private vehicle and an experienced driver, the logistics are effortless.
All tours are available for individuals, families and groups of any size. We provide saloon cars and minivans for smaller parties, and coaches accommodating 20, 30 or 50 passengers for larger groups. Custom itineraries and multi-day programmes are available on request — please contact us to discuss your requirements.
