Explore Hungary and let yourself be charmed by its allure.
From the edges of the Great Hungarian Plain to Lake Fertő, the same language is spoken, but there is always a little detail that differs: a folk costume, a festival, a pastry... Then, a trip to Hungary obviously isn't just about its sublime capital. Budapest is a magnificent pearl of the Danube, but there are many other treasures to discover. Starting with Szentendre or Visegrád. And then there are charming provincial cities like Pécs, Szeged, Eger, Sopron, Győr, Kőszeg, Kecskemét... which combine Baroque, Art Nouveau, and Neoclassicism. Finally, there are the lakes: Balaton, the Hungarian inland sea, a major summer destination that still has delightful spots preserved from the crowds; and the smaller lakes Fertő and Velence, bordered by reeds and picturesque villages. In short, there is something for everyone in Hungary! And there's nothing like a local agency to organize the tailor-made trip of your dreams according to your budget and desires.
A Captivating and Affordable Destination

The fourth largest city in Hungary, Szeged is located near the Serbian and Romanian borders. Sunny Szeged has always been one of the most important cities in the Southern Great Plain.
