Private Excursion to the Danube Bend

The Danube Bend, or Dunakanyar in Hungarian, is a large U-shaped curve in the wide River Danube. It is famous for its panoramic views of the Transdanubian Mountains on the right bank, and the North Hungarian mountain range to the left, as well as the many picturesque towns, many of which you will visit on your private tour.
During the tour you will visit Esztergom, a town located 46km north of Budapest, which is home to the majestic Esztergom Basilica; the oldest church in Hungary, and the center of the Roman Catholic faith in the country for centuries. You will also pay a visit to Visegrad a famous castle town containing a romantic 13th-century citadel with palace ruins originally built in the Renaissance style.
Lastly, you'll stop off in the lovely town of Szentendre. It's known for its baroque architecture, fabulous churches, colorful array of houses, and quaint, narrow, cobbled streets. The main square, Fő Tér, and the alleyways around it are lined with art galleries, museums, cafes, and boutique shops. Just off the square, be sure to visit the 18th-century Greek Orthodox Blagovestenska Church with its elaborate decor and ornate partition screen. Then it is time to enjoy a scenic drive back to Budapest!
