Present-day spirituality + ancient Christian monastery. Firstly you will encounter to a unique, Hungarian mix of religions: native samanism, christianity and hinduism under the influence of esoteric teachings.
Then feel something special by the ruins of a 700 years old monastery. In the end optionally walk up to an enthralling viewpoint over the waving forests and Budapest!

This is a relatively new programme here, but I have over 21 years of guiding experience: I am said to be friendly, knowledgeable and had guests from 57 countries. Also a fellow-traveller (pic. no. 6).

Google rates: 1. Church 4.9 by 357 visitors, Monastery 4.7 by 128, viewpoint 4.8 by 1448.
