BUDAPEST · EGER DAY TRIPS
A baroque town with a Turkish minaret at one end and a valley of wine cellars at the other. These 9 day trips are two hours each way, so what matters is how long you actually get in the Valley of the Beautiful Women.

“It was great to have the flexibility of a private tour to take a little more or less time in various spots, and even added unplanned stops when things piqued my interest in Eger. Gergely was professional and patient with my photo pauses and it was great to hear a locals perspectives on so many things about the country. Köszönöm!”

Private day trip from Budapest to Eger Castle and Egerszalók thermal baths, with hotel pickup, salt-hill views, and included admissions.
“The resort/hot springs was nice but two hours is not enough time to enjoy the baths, check out the salt pools and have lunch. Also you don’t really get to see Eger just walk through it to get to the small castle area which was under renovation.”
Private full-day Eger wine tasting from Budapest with baroque sights, Eger Castle, Egri Bikavér, and a hearty Hungarian lunch.
“First-class guide included conversation on Hungarian history which I thoroughly enjoyed on the ride over to Eger from Budapest and back. A tour and tasting of two local excellent wineries, lunch in a local fine hotel, a brief walking tour of Eger a charming town not to be missed, and the opportunity to purchase some of the local famous wines. Highly recommended and I live in the Napa Wine Area of California!”

Hollókő ethnographic village day tour from Budapest, UNESCO Palóc peasant houses, folk dance, museums, and a regional lunch in 8 hours.
“The town of Holloko is completely charming. The people in beautiful ethnic costumes including many children made us feel we were in a magical world. We loved the performances of Hungarian dance from different regions of the country in traditional garb from those regions- accompanied by live music. There was delicious Hungarian food at many booths. The doll museum was wonderful. Our guide and driver took very good care of us. I’ve been traveling in Hungary and Austria for 8 days, and the day in Holloko is the highlight of my trip so far.Read more”
Every kind of day out in the city, and the best of each.
