Breathtaking Budapest & Strudel-Making Fun

Get swept away in the sights & culture of Budapest when you tour the city & watch an expert’s strudel-making demonstration.

About Your Trip

The “Pearl of the Danube” awaits eager explorers ready to discover the magic of Budapest, the Hungarian capital. Your DreamTrip includes a fascinating, full-day guided tour of historic and cultural marvels, first on the Buda side of the Danube River and then on the Pest side. You’ll see Banks of the Danube, Castle District and Andrassy Avenue — places of such significance that they are a designated UNESCO World Heritage site! Admire a Romanesque-style church and a neoclassical basilica. See panoramic views of the city from several vantage points, one from a decorative bastion and the other from a hilltop. You’ll also stop for a photo opportunity in an important historic square set within a lovely urban park. From the comfort of your motor coach, you’ll get a real sense of the city’s magnificence, from 19th-century mansions and an opera house to imposing parliament buildings and a turn-of-the-century trading hall and much more! Your tour also includes a visit to Strudel House, where you’ll watch a strudel-making demonstration and indulge in a delectable 3-course lunch.

Explore more of Budapest on your own the following day — or, use your included discount for pampering spa treatments at the hotel — before settling in for a delightful, 3-course farewell meal.

What we love:

• St. Stephen’s Basilica houses an unusual relic: the mummified right hand of St. Stephen I, the first king of Hungary.
• Open since 1897, Great Market Hall boasts vendors selling products of all kinds, including paprika, pickles, wine and honey.
• More than 400 years ago, strudel was first served in Budapest at Strudel House, a fun — and delicious — stop on your city tour.

Destination

Hungary’s capital city lies upon the tranquil Danube River and is undeniably one of the most beautiful destinations in Europe. Vienna Gate Square’s Baroque churches and rococo homes serve as an idyllic backdrop for bustling city streets, cafes, clubs and boutiques. Major attractions include the Buda Castle (also known as the Royal Palace or Royal Castle), the Hungarian Parliament Building, the Great Synagogue and Hercules Villa.

Hungarian Art Nouveau architecture is prominent in Budapest and was heavily influenced by eastern styles in the late 19th century, including those found in Syrian and Indian art of the same period.
