About this experience

After pick-up at your accommodation by a private car or minibus we drive an hour to the famous town of Visegrád to mix adrenaline adventure with culture, history and Nature. Then we have lunch local restaurant and finish the rich day by relaxation in a fancy sauna.

This is a relatively new programme here, but I am said to be a friendly and knowledgeable guide with 20 years of experience, who had thousands of guests from 57 countries (pic. no 6.).
I am a local, know a lot about my country, people, history.

The sauna is not necessarily part of the program, if you prefer to miss it or would rather go to the nearby beach on the Danube, we give you back 6000 huf/15 euro from the fee in cash.

During winter (Dec-Febr) the castle (ggle-rated 4.6 by 17502 visitors) is only open from Fri-Sun , but we can always visit viewterrace (whick is the main attraction here) and see it from outside. In this case we give you back 2500 huf/6 euro from the fee in cash.

Don’t risk, just come and see!
