    Overview

    As the years go by, more and more travelers venture out of the Hungarian capital to explore vineyards, beautiful landscapes and great food. There is, luckily, one region where you will get all three and more: Balaton, the largest lake in Central Europe. Experience the beauty of Lake Balaton on a relaxing 1-hour sailing cruise and enjoy the panoramic views of the picturesque Tihany Peninsula. Balaton boasts some of the most ancient buildings in Hungary dating back to the early middle ages: Tihany Abbey for example, the still functioning Benedictine monastery that will allow you a peek into the lives of medieval kings & queens. You will also be able to visit the world-famous Herend Porcelain Manufactory, where some of the most beautiful pieces of porcelain are made. This is also a great place to do some souvenir shopping. On our Balaton day trip, you will get to discover the highlights of this region, taste its wines, and maybe even take a dip in the lake while you’re there!

    Tihany is a village on the northern shore of Lake Balaton on the Tihany Peninsula (Hungary, Veszprém County). The whole peninsula is a historical district. The center of the district is the Benedictine Tihany Abbey, which was founded in 1055 AD by András (Andrew) I, who is buried in the crypt. The founding charter of this abbey is the first extant record of Hungarian language, preserved in Pannonhalma Benedictine Archabbey. The church itself was rebuilt in baroque style in 1754. The still functioning abbey is a popular tourist attraction due to its historical and artistic significance. It also has the best view of Lake Balaton.

    What is special about Lake Balaton? The hilly surrounding area holds some of Hungary's prime vineyards. A sole sailboat glides on Lake Balaton, central Europe's largest lake, where Hungarians flock for fun on the water and wine tasting in the surrounding villages. Time to go back after the tour.
