 The river and surrounding areas |
Bathory utca, 22 District V Budapest 1054 Hungary +36 1 302 4382 |
It is a beautiful river and this is a beautiful way to see it and the surrounding area. The tour will bus you to the Danube bend (a point where the river makes a sharp ninety-degree turn) at Visegrad, site of an ancient castle (allegedly that of Vlad The Impaler), and then on to Esztergom where there is a fine cathedral. After lunch, you will be taken back to Szentendre, a charming old Slav town which is now an artists' hang-out. There are lots of art galleries and also plenty of opportunity for shopping. Finally, you will return to Budapest by boat. NB the return trip is available only in summer - May to the end of September. The trip lasts around ten hours. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Budapest's famous river |
Dowtown Budapest 1052 Hungary |
The Danube - Europe's most celebrated river - runs majestically through the center of Budapest. The city has taken full advantage of this and it now offers some of the finest panoramas to be found anywhere on the continent. Starting far away in Germany (where the Breg and Brigach rivers meet), the Danube runs some 2859 kilometers before spilling into the Black Sea. On its journey, it passes through Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Yugoslavia, Bulgaria and Romania. Incidentally, contrary to the name of the famous waltz, it is not blue!
