Overview

The full day excursion to the Danube Bend is one of the most popular whole-day trips from Budapest. It offers a varied program with both historical and scenic sights. There are many ways to customize the itinerary based on your interests and wishes.

Mountain peak Dobogókő is a great introduction to the Danube Bend region.

Afterwards we visit two of Hungary's former royal seats (Esztergom and Visegrád). We drive to several lookout points from where you can see the Danube and the surrounding area from different directions and angles.
