Take a refreshing break from bustling Budapest into the charmingly relaxed artists’ town of Szentendre. Take a look at the open-air exhibition of young Hungarian artists, then wander along the twisting, cobblestone alleys, soak up the Mediterranean atmosphere in an outdoor cafe, or bargain for souvenirs in a tiny boutique.

Climb the church hill for stunning views of colurful rooftops nestled along the river. Marvel at the life- size marzipan sculpture of Lady Diana in the Marzipan Museum. Visit a gallery or a museum (optional) and tell your fellow travellers what undiscovered secrets you managed to reveal.

If you’re visiting during the spring or summer, on weekends return to central Budapest with a casual river cruise (1st of May until 1st of October and only on Friday-Saturday-Sunday). Should you join the tour in the winter months or weekdays, a comfortable ride in a luxurious coach takes you back to your departure point (October to April).
