We start with an interior visit with a local guide to get acquainted with the process of the
production. Then you will have some free time for shopping and finally, you can have a memorable coffee break with original Herend porcelain cups.
After a short drive we arrive at the first Hungarian nature reservation area, the Tihany Peninsula, that lies deep inside the lake. At this point you will already know the reason why this is the 2nd most frequently visited part of Hungary, just after Budapest. We visit the 1000- year-old Benedictine Abbey and enjoy the panoramic view from the promenade.
On our way to the lunch place we pass folk art shops and hand-made arts and crafts products. You can also try the famous Tihany echo. We have our lunch under the shade of the grapes in a local „Csárda” (restaurant).
On our back journey to Budapest we stop at the first Spa and Holiday Resort of Hungary in Balatonfüred just by the Lake!
