Danube Bend Day Trip from Budapest
Budapest, Hungary
My Rating

Tour starts off with the visit to the Basilica at Esztergom and a walk across the common bridge shared between Slovakia and Hungary. A lot of history in the cathedral but it was a little rushed. The next stop was for lunch at Visegrad on a hilltop restauarant overlooking the danube and the ruins of an old roman township. Good food and an excellent view. The last stop prior to the boat ride back to Budapest was in the small town of Szentendre with a lot of good souvenier shops, marzipan museums and a shop selling traditional blue dyed prints. Overall a good tour, however a little rushed for a single day.

Puszta Great Plains and Kecskemet Day Trip from Budapest
Budapest, Hungary
My Rating

A good walk around Kecskemet, although the highlight was the Stud farm at Puszta. Good family entertainment with the horse show, carriage and horse rides as well as a small zoo for the little ones.
The food was excellent with some of the best "Goulash" i have tasted. Live gypsy band kept us company during lunch.
