Highlights
  • Visegrád - We visit two towns along the Danube river: Szentendre and Visegrád.

On the way to the Danube bend we will stop in the artist’s village of Szentendre. It is a small baroque city at the gate of the Danube Bend in a beautiful natural environment. Cobbled squares, colorful old houses, narrow streets, graceful churches, nice cafes and quality souvenir/art shops. Szentendre means home and inspiration for many well known Hungarian artists. After the walk through the charming and quiet streets of the downtown you can visit interesting museums or galleries presenting local art.

Visegrád once was the capital of Hungary. From the hill there you will enjoy an absolutely fascinating panorama on the Danube bend.
Here we have an option of visiting the ruins of the castle (tickets: about 6 euros per person).
During the tour we can also have lunch at a good restaurant.
The “Charming Danube-Bend private tour” is one of our serviced that we are really proud of.

Additional Information

The River Danube’s Bend area is a distinctive and extraordinarily picturesque part of Hungary, particularly resplendent in the month of October. If you’re an aficionado of nature and arts, this excursion is designed with you in mind.

We offer round-trip transportation for your convenience, picking you up from your location and returning you there, or to any other place within the city based on your preference. Given that this is a private trip, it can be tailored to your specific interests. Kindly share your preferences to help us customise this experience for you.

The estimated duration of the tour is five hours in addition to an optional lunch break. Ordinarily, the lunch break lasts approximately one hour. Consequently, if we begin our journey at 9 AM, we usually wind up around 3 PM, but an earlier return can be arranged should you desire. If our standard departure times do not fit within your schedule, please book the tour and let us know your preferred starting time.

Classic Fun with Balazs - So extremely happy we booked this tour and would most definitely book another one with Balazs (our guide). The classic car, 1957 Opel, was truly luxury and a joy to ride in. Our guide, Balazs Ackermann was amazing, so informative and a pleasure to have spent the day with. The village we visited was quaint and the food Balazs recommended was delicious!

Nice little excursion outside Budapest - Best thing about this trip was the car - a plum colored 1957 Opel Reckard - and its driver - a mechanical engineer who is also a vintage car enthusiast and restoration expert. Not only did he show us Danube River Bend but also took us around the quirky town of Szentendre, home to local artists and a thriving community. Balascz said he owned 10 classic cars in his garage, some of which are driven on tours. This is a half-day tour and not too far outside town. Would have liked to go up the castle, but we only drove by as we were short of time.

Above and beyond! - Attila was a great guide and went above and beyond what was expected. He found a place with authentic Hungarian food where I had pork goulash, a kind that my grandmother was making when I was young! The place did not have it on the menu but instead offered to prepare it for us anyway! Highly recommend!

Fantastic day in a lovely car - Unfortunately the weather wasn’t very good the day of the trip and we were unable to visit the hills and views of the Danube in the car. But our guide Balazs made up for this by taking us to see some other hidden gems nearby. We did manage to visit the art town of Szentendre which was stunning and very photogenic. Balazs walked us around and showed us all sorts of interesting points. Our guide was amazing and very informative, we was very knowledgeable and friendly and knew the area very well. The car on the day was stunning and it was fantastic travelling around in it, Balazs was able to tell us all about it, how he restored it, and how it worked. He was such a nice, genuine person and made our day very special, thank you Balazs. It was such a shame the weather wasn’t great, but you made up for this, and more, and went the extra mile to make this an experience to remember. Would definitely recommend this tour, and would love to come back in the summer one day and do it once more.

A must do while in Budapest - Our guide was fantastic. His car was a classic and his knowledge of Hungarian history and ability to make great conversation made our day. It was great to visit a small town, view the architecture and chat with the locals.

Great fun, sites and guides - Great tour with great guides. The towns and sites were great and the guides in our 2 cars were so nice and flexible to what we wanted to do, even stopping upon our request when we saw a fun mini go cart ride in one of the mountain towns.
