Frequently asked questions about our Hungary tours
Where will I visit in Hungary?
In Hungary, we include guided sightseeing and free time in the captivating capital of Budapest. From here, our tours journey through the Hungarian countryside to Serbia, and onwards to Balkan countries such as Bosnia, Croatia, Slovenia and Montenegro.
And these trips visit other Balkan countries too?
Correct! All of our Hungary tours visit neighbouring Balkans countries. In all, our Hungary tours take in Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Montenegro, Albania, North Macedonia, Greece, Romania, Bulgaria, Germany, Austria, Czechia and Serbia, as well as parts of eastern Germany. So you're not short of options!
What is the standard of accommodation on your Hungary tours?
On the majority of our Hungary tours, you can choose from 4 or 5-star accommodation. Of course, the 5-star tour is a little more expensive, but you benefit from the best accommodation the Balkans can offer. The choice is yours!
When is the best time to visit Hungary?
Hungary experiences four distinct seasons. Summer from June - August is the hottest time of year, with temperatures frequently hitting 30 degrees Celsius and above. And winter from December - February can be very cold, but the Christmas markets in Budapest are well worth a visit and the country's ski resorts are a cheaper alternative to the Alps!
The best time to visit Budapest for sightseeing are the shoulder seasons of spring (March - May) and autumn (September - November), characterized by pleasant weather and smaller crowds than the highs of summer. We've got a more detailed guide on when to visit Hungary in our Travel Guide.
Will I have a tour guide as part of my Hungary tour package?
