Join us for an extraordinary week full of music, art, architecture, and gastronomy.
Budapest seems effortlessly suspended between centuries, proudly displaying elements of past and present to create an intriguing city that is a study in contrasts. From elegant Andrássy Avenue with its Hapsburg-era grandeur and Art Nouveau buildings on leafy boulevards to the 7th District's "ruin pubs" and street food, Budapest is a sophisticated and vibrant city with a wealth of UNESCO-listed sites, four Michelin-starred restaurants, and a long-standing tradition of café culture.
The city of Liszt and Bartók, Budapest is overflowing with music, opera, and concerts, and has an abundance of excellent museums. The Music Academy, founded by Liszt himself, is one of the most important concert venues in the city and is complemented by the recently renovated Hungarian State Opera and the multi-venue MUPA Palace of Arts.
Added to that are the city’s historically important Jewish Quarter featuring the breathtaking Dohany Street Synagogue, elaborate 19th-century coffee houses, and an enviable heritage of Art Nouveau and Neo-classical architecture. Relax at one of the many thermal baths and spas fed by over 100 natural hot springs throughout the city. And don’t forget to enjoy the delicious Hungarian food and pastries! Our expert guides share their knowledge and passion with our group of educated and inquisitive travelers. Our carefully curated itinerary allows participants to explore this fascinating travel destination, connect with like-minded travelers, and deepen their appreciation for the region and its rich cultural heritage. |
