A Highlight of our Visit to Hungary - Ursula is an incredibly savvy guide, and our driver Daniel was excellent. The car was luxurious. We had not known of Herend until this visit and enjoyed the tour and cappuccino there immensely. Tihany is a gem, and I could have spend days at Lake Balaton.

Great day at the Lake - Gergely Szabó was an excellent guide. We had a great drive to the Lake Balaton area. We had stops at a viewpoint. Then we went to the Porcalain factory. We had an excellent tour. He walked us through the museum and was knowledgeable about the factory and the area. We had ample time for the tour and shopping. Then we drove to the Lake. We had time to take the ferry over to Tihany while he drove over to the other side to meet us. We had time for lunch and then a walking tour of Tihany and the church. There was ample time for the walk and shopping and we drove to a winery he knew and we had time for a nice glass of wine before the drive back to Budapest. Excellent trip!!!!

Lovely day in the countryside - Gregory was a great guide and driver out to Herend and Lake Balaton area. He tailored the tour to our requests and we stopped at a little vineyard and sampled some local wine as well! The Herend tour was great. The only bummer was that I wish we had remembered to bring our passports for the VAT tax refund form.
