Detailed itinerary

Your day begins with the anticipation of your private car and personal driver arriving at your designated pickup location in Budapest. Relax in the comfort of your vehicle as you embark on your wine-filled adventure to Eger, our first destination.

As we depart from Budapest and embark on our vinous adventure, our first destination is the enchanting wine region of Eger. Nestled in the northern part of Hungary, Eger is a picturesque and historic wine region that promises a captivating experience for wine enthusiasts and history buffs alike. Its rich winemaking history, dating back to the 11th century, comes to life as we explore its diverse terroirs and savor the iconic Bull's Blood wine. Eger's unique climate, with hot summers and cold winters, gives birth to wines renowned for their elegance, depth, and character.

As we depart Eger and continue our wine journey, we arrive at the jewel of Hungarian winemaking, Tokaj. Located in the northeastern part of Hungary, Tokaj is a region steeped in history and renowned for its sweet Tokaji wines. Here, the landscape is adorned with rolling vineyards, and every visit to a winery is an opportunity to discover the secrets behind the production of Tokaji Aszú and other exceptional wines.

Our exploration of Tokaj offers a chance to stroll through its scenic vineyards, where the unique terroir contributes to the character of the wines. A visit to the Tokaj Wine Museum reveals the region's winemaking traditions, while intimate tastings provide a deep appreciation for the craftsmanship behind these world-renowned wines. Tokaj invites us to experience the essence of Hungarian wine culture, creating memories to treasure on our vinous voyage.

As our unforgettable vinous voyage through Eger and Tokaj comes to an end, we embark on the journey back to Budapest. With cherished memories of Eger's historic charm and Tokaj's wine-soaked landscapes, our private car ensures a comfortable and relaxing return.

Your personal driver will accompany you on the scenic drive, allowing you to reflect on the exclusive insights gained into Hungary's wine heritage. The landscapes of Hungary's wine regions will linger in your mind as we make our way back to the vibrant heart of Budapest.
