Danube Bend Day Trip: Esztergom, Visegrád & Szentendre

  • 1,562 reviews | 12,859 travellers
    The visits were beautiful. The Esztergom Cathedral was very pretty (as was the surrounding area). It's a shame it was under construction. The Cloud Castle in Visegrad was gorgeous! And the town of Szentendre was very picturesque. The best part of the entire day and trip: Vera (the guide). An elderly woman who deeply loves her job and does it very well. She resolved all our doubts, answered our questions, and made the day special. Thank you, Vera!!!

Danube Bend Day Trip: Esztergom, Visegrád & Szentendre

Meet the tour close to the parliament building in Budapest, and head north to Esztergom on a spacious coach. This picturesque city was once the capital of Hungary, from the tenth to the thirteenth century, and is the country’s seat of the Roman Catholic Church. It's home to the largest Cathedral in Hungary, Esztergom Basilica. Accompanied by your knowledgeable English-speaking guide, you’ll step inside the splendid neoclassical temple and admire the breathtaking views of the Danube River and the south of Slovakia from Castle Hill. The visit to Esztergom will last about an hour.

The second stop is Visegrád, best known for its medieval citadel, perched on a steep hill, and King Matthias Corvinus of Hungary’s summer palace. We'll pass by the impressive ruins of Visegrád Castle and enjoy the beautiful views of the Danube Bend. After the tour, you’ll have approximately one hour to continue exploring the town at your own pace.

After lunch, hop back on the bus and head to Szentendre, known as the Artists’ Village. Follow your guide on an hour-long guided walking tour of the Old Town and then enjoy some free time to visit its souvenir shops or famous museums.

On Saturdays, between May 1 and September 17, if there's enough water in the Danube, we'll return to Budapest by boat. If there's not enough water, we'll return by land.
