Szentendre Nostalgia

There is a small baroque city at the gate of the Danube Bend, at the meeting place of the river Danube and the Pilis Hills, in a beautiful natural setting. With a 25-minute drive from Budapest, we reach this picturesque Artist's Village called Szentendre. We stop at the Caprice Jewellery Manufactory, wander around the baroque settlement, built on medieval ruins and go along the narrow streets up to the panorama point. We then simply enjoy the special atmosphere of this village. We stop at the Confectionery Museum (buildings and people made of marzipan) and invite you for a cup of coffee with a slice of Hungarian cake. Then you will have the opportunity to go for shopping or to visit the Margit Kovács Ceramic Museum. During the summer (between the 1st of May and the 30th of September) we return to Budapest on the Danube by boat.

Following a 3-course lunch in a "csárda" restaurant, we go to Balatonfüred (with the oldest spa in Hungary) and walk along the famous promenade.
