Hungary

All Aboard for Budapest

Unique folklore traditions, sophisticated cuisine, and one of Europe’s most vibrant capital cities... a river cruise through Hungary is sure to surprise. Get a taste of Hungary as you cruise down the Danube, from dynamic Budapest with its cool café culture and art nouveau architecture, to the Hungarian harbour town of Mohács, dotted with parks and historical churches.

Hungary Highlights

VISEGRÁD

Located north of Budapest is the Castle of Visegrád. Sitting high above the Danube, it was built around 1250 and once held Vlad Dracula as a prisoner. Enjoy a hike up to the top of the castle to hear all about its history while witnessing incredible views of the Borzsony Hills and the river bend below.

Hungary Highlights

BUDAPEST

With its dramatic past, art nouveau architecture, and cool café culture, Budapest serves as the Danube River's exclamation point. Uncover its secrets on a guided sightseeing tour or spend free time exploring the city’s iconic bathhouses and quirky ruin bars.

Hungary Highlights

PÉCS

Take a guided tour of Pécs, an ancient city in southern Hungary. With your local guide, discover its 4th-century underground burial tombs and its fascinating murals, now part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
