Lake Balaton Day Trip with Sailing Cruise and Wine Tasting
Overview
As the years go by, more and more travelers venture out of the Hungarian capital to explore vineyards, beautiful landscapes and great food. There is, luckily, one region where you will get all three and more: Balaton, the largest lake in Central Europe.
Experience the beauty of Lake Balaton on a relaxing 1-hour sailing cruise and enjoy the panoramic views of the picturesque Tihany Peninsula.
Balaton boasts some of the most ancient buildings in Hungary dating back to the early middle ages: Tihany Abbey for example, the still functioning Benedictine monastery that will allow you a peek into the lives of medieval kings & queens.
You will also be able to visit the world-famous Herend Porcelain Manufactory, where some of the most beautiful pieces of porcelain are made. This is also a great place to do some souvenir shopping.
On our Balaton day trip, you will get to discover the highlights of this region, taste its wines, and maybe even take a dip in the lake while you’re there!
