Szentendre Mediterranean experience – The Village of Artists
Regarding the numbers of art galleries, street performances and musicians with the name of “Village of Artists”, we do not exaggerate. Walk along the narrow streets, admire the churches, or just sit on the riverside and seize the moment.
The first recommended sight is the Caprice Diamond Museum, which is the biggest center of diamonds and gemstones in Europe. You can get acquainted with the history of diamonds, and the procedures of jewel manufacture. After a guided tour in the baroque style town center, guests can have free time to do some souvenir shopping from the very attractive offers of the gift sellers. Everybody will find some little presents to take home for the beloved ones or keep them for you. The Marzipan Museum is definitely worth a visit where time passes quickly with a delicious marzipan dessert and a cup of fine coffee. It takes an hour to get back to Budapest by boat and you have a great chance to discover the wildlife of the river and the islands. In case of law water level and in wintertime, guests return to Budapest by bus.

Excursion to Gödöllő – the Royal Tour
The History of Hungary and the Habsburg Dynasty were intertwined through five hundred years. By the end of the tour, guests will have been acquainted with the interaction of the two cultures, and the everyday life of the noble aristocracy. The Castle of Gödöllő is one of the most remarkable castles of Hungary simply because of its size.
This is one of the biggest baroque castles in the world. This was the summer residence of Queen Elisabeth (Sissi) during the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy. Sissi enjoyed being here; Hungarians loved her and treated her very friendly. A beautiful park was created in the Castle garden in remembrance of her sudden death. The rooms of the Castle furnished with authentic pieces and ornaments still preserve the memories of the era. It is very refreshing to have a pleasant walk in the park of the Castle after having some coffee and cakes in the Palace café. The tour ends in front of the Hotel InterContinental in Budapest.
Note: The Castle of Gödöllő is the protocol location during the Hungarian EU presidency in 2011. Because of the EU meetings, tourist visits are limited.
Ask for more information if you would like to spend one or more days in the capital of the Habsburg Empire and classical music, in Wien. Here, culture meets fashion and art faces tradition and modernity. You are able to stay a little longer and visit Baden, which is the main casino and spa resort in Central Europe.
