Hungary Beyond Budapest
Enjoy our live Monday Night Travel party with this video recorded on October 13, 2025.
Sitting at the crossroads of Europe, quirky Hungary has become cosmopolitan while remaining perfectly Hungarian. And while many travelers begin and end their visits in Budapest, those who venture beyond the big city are rewarded with winsome riverside towns, genteel palaces, and plenty of local wine. Alongside tour guide Andrea Makkay, we explore these cultured corners of Hungary — from spa-crazed Eger and Danube delights in the northeast to museum-packed Pécs and holiday hotspot Lake Balaton southwest of Budapest. Pour yourself a glass of wine to sip as we indulge in this one-of-a-kind country.
