AROUND HUNGARY
Half Day Private Tour in Szentendre
Half-day private tour in Szentendre from Budapest
Duration: 4 hours
Szentendre is best known as the Village of Artists. The small town is the opening of the Danube Bend area with colorful Baroque architecture, lovely shops, and delicious restaurants.
The town’s character was mainly shaped during the medieval times by the settler Serbian communities.
After they discovered its charming atmosphere and beautiful landscape, Szentendre became the center of fine art students in the 20th century. It’s still full of museums, galleries, and folk art we can explore this half-day program.
If the tour in Szentendre is not enough for you and you want to discover the whole of Danube Bend with all of its sights and secrets check out our Danube Bend tour as well!

“Lovely, funny, informational and very original tour with Petra through the Jewish district and around the synagogues. Takes 2 to 2,5 hours but only feels like half an hour.”

“The five stars go to Petra, as the Jewish district walk was extremely interesting. Petra is an excellent guide, so well informed and she enriched us with an entertaining and gripping history of the area.”
