Lake Balaton and Herend Porcalain (Full-Day Private Tour)
Overview
This full-day private tour to the Lake Balaton region covers the largest hand-painting porcelain manufactory of the world in Herend, the 1000-year old Benedictine Abbey in Tihany, beautiful walkway in Balatonfüred and a wine tasting in the wine region Balatonfüred-Csopak.
Herend is famous for its Porcelain Manufactory – you can see how the luxury hand painted products are made (and also can buy products if you want).
In Tihany you can visit the Benedictine Abbey, and enjoy a delightful panorama of Lake Balaton.
In Balatonfüred you can take a walk on the bank. A lot of sailboats and yachts could be seen on the lake. If you get tired, there are a lot of benches to relax and cafés to refresh yourself. If the weather is enough warm, you can try a beach if you want.
At the end of the day you can enjoy a great wine at one of the many wine bars on the hilltops by the wineries overlooking the lake.
