About this experience
Come and be part of an amazing experience - visit the Hungarian Puszta (part of the Great Plain).
First we visit Kecskemét to see the difference between a town in the countryside and the bustling city of Budapest. We continue to Lajosmizse. On arrival at the farm we taste ’barackpálinka’ (apricot brandy) as a welcome drink.
Before a horse-show we get on a carriage for a ride in the ’puszta’. Our program goes on with the stunning attraction of the Hungarian ’csikós’ (Hungarian horsemen).
To make your day complete and memorable - we’ll spoil you with delicious country-style lunch (3-course meal with a glass of wine), which will be served in a Hungarian inn "Csárda" .
Return to Budapest, the tour ends in the city center.
