Highlights of Hungary
As you cruise along the meandering Danube River through the Hungarian countryside, a few of the major destinations you will come across include:

• Budapest – the cultural gem and capital city of Hungary, where you'll see the Baroque Gödöllö Palace, Gellert Baths, Margaret Island, Castle Hill, and other sites.
• Mohacs – home to over 500 years of history, including one of the most important battles in the history of central Europe.
• Esztergom – home to the Basilica of Esztergom, which is the country's largest religious building and a hallmark in classical architecture.
• Puszta – these expansive grasslands were like the "wild west" of Hungary during the 19th century.

While the scenic and historic beauty of Hungary is enough to make this an exciting cruise destination alone, you'll have plenty of opportunities to experience the country in more active ways, including hiking, biking, and many options for walking tours of each city and its major sites.
