Escape Budapest for an 8-hour guided hike from Dömös, with hotel pickup, snacks, water, and Danube-bend views in a small group.

“I had one of the most memorable day of my life. This was my first proper hiking experience and there was rain in the morning which made me more anxious. On top of that I came with a road running shoe! But our guide Attila (the Hun!) made it all look easy and we decided to go ahead with the plan. It stopped raining by the time we started the hike. Attila was very helpful and down to earth and with another hiking friend from Netherlands, we made the first steep climb without much issues. The view of Danube bend was awesome and we had some snacks there. Attila shared…”

He knows a lot about the surrounding nature and animals and gladly elaborates if there’s any questions. Would absolutely do it again.”

Rent a bike in central Budapest for 8 hours, get a helmet and lock, and use staff tips to craft your own Danube-and-back route.

“The bikes we were given were not suitable for the excursion to Szentendre. They braked even downhill, they did not work properly, the wheels rubbed and the sprockets were not greased, we managed to get there with a lot of effort but we had to return by train. The guy who was in the shop on Sunday did not tell us anything about the bikes not being suitable and when we returned he said yes to everything as if we were stupid, indicating that we should have changed gears. Very poor service. The 3 bikes were the same, they were cheap but they are only good for walking around the…”

A nosotros nos ofreció una ruta alternativa mientras esta pareja veía el castillo de Visegrad (castillo que ya habíamos visto en otra tour). La ruta al castillo está llena de escaleras y de subidas. Al final la ruta alternativa nos gustó mucho, muy bonita. Además estaba el día con mucha niebla lo que le daba un aspecto de cuento. Nuestro guía nos dió al principio de la ruta una botella de agua y pañuelos, también nos prestó un bastón. También fue…”
