Budapest is just the beginning. Hungary's most bewitching towns and villages are just a 'day away'. Spend a relaxing day with me and explore the beautiful Hungarian countryside.
Lake Balaton And Herend Tour: It is the perfect way to experience the Hungarian 'sea'.
Lake Balaton is an amazing freshwater lake in the Transdanubian region of Hungary, the largest in Central Europe, and one of the region's foremost tourist destinations with beautiful rolling hills and scenic wine regions around it.
This is where many Hungarians spend their holidays. The program also includes a visit to the well-reputed Herend Porcelain Factory and a visit to the 1000-year-old Tihany Benedictine Abbey.
--------------------------------
Itinerary:First we travel to Herend, where we visit the largest hand-painted Porcelain Manufactory of the world and become acquainted with its history and speciality in the performance of a local guide.
After that I will give you some free time for shopping and invite you for a coffee at the Porcelánium coffee house, where you can drink coffee out of real porcelain cups.
We then take the direction to Lake Balaton, Tihany-Peninsula, where we visit the almost 1000-year-old Benedictine Abbey with the tomb of the Hungarian king Andrew I. , which is the only one royal burial place remaining in its original position. Behind the Abbey you can see a unique panorama of Balaton.
