Budapest is a wonderful city known for its rich history, its amazing food, and of course its great party scene. If you are visiting, you better prepare a plan because you might get overwhelmed by all the opportunities. Here are some of our favourite programs, which will scratch all the right parts of the traveller in you!
The essence of Hungary
If you ask a Hungarian person about the essence of the country, they will most likely mention at least one dish. Hungarians love to eat and have some truly amazing food to offer you! If you want to experience it first-hand without hunting for fancy restaurants, just visit the Great Market Hall!
The ground floor offers dozens of stands filled with fresh, local fruits and vegetables, as well as a few vendors offering strudel, dairy products, or paprika. The floor below has some great pickles, as well as fresh fish. But the real fun awaits you on the upper floor! With tons of restaurants and food stalls, you can try just about any traditional Hungarian food from gulyás to lángos. It would be a mistake to miss out on it!
City tour and exercise
Budapest is full of beautiful sights, so when you are ready, put your walking shoes on and get going! Take a nice stroll around the Parliament, visit the Basilica, then walk through Chain Bridge and climb up to the Buda Castle! Once you are up there, it will be nothing going over to the Fisherman’s Bastion – but even if you get tired, the view will definitely be worth it! Combine your daily exercise with the rich history of the city, explore all the local cafes and pubs and have a great day walking around!
