PÁLINKA (FRUIT SPIRIT) OR UNICUM
Pálinka is a traditional fruit spirit with origins in Carpathian Mountains
Unicum is a digestive that contains 40 herbs and spices and is the most popular drink in Hungary. Learn the history behind the bittersweet brew as you imbibe.
ADDITIONAL WINE TASTING - "Organic natural and SECRET Hungarian wines"
We all enjoy the Tokaj dessert wine . This region is noted for its sweet wines made from grapes affected by noble rot, a style of wine which has a long history in this region. The "nectar" coming from the grapes of Tokaj is also mentioned in the national anthem of Hungary. Tokaji wine was also served at the Versailles Court, where it became known under the name of Tokay. Delighted with the precious beverage, Louis XIV declared it "Vinum Regum, Rex Vinorum" ("Wine of Kings, King of Wines").

*We reserve the right to substitute the alcohol for non-alcoholic drinks if the guest becomes inebriated.

WHY DOWNTOWN BUDAPEST?

Budapest is now one of the most popular destinations of Central Europe, where everyone can find something interesting to do, to see, or to eat. Your guide will give you many local tips about visiting the city to help you feel at home.

We have chosen the downtown area of Budapest because it has a great collection of restaurants and bars tucked amid the historical buildings. This district is famous for its intercultural community shared by people of different religions and all ages. After this tour, guests gain a strong understanding of Hungarian food culture and how it reflects the diverse nature of our unique history.

The booking fee that you have to pay is to our ticket provider and we can't change it. All our clients need to pay for it upon booking. The booking fee charged contributes to the cost of the ticketing system to provide an excellent service to our customers.

Foreign Transaction Fees

A few banks have charged their customer an extra fee while booking with us (this isn't the booking fee but another fee added by the bank). We think this is unfair, if this happens let us know by showing us your bank statement and we will refund as a gesture of good will.
