Full-Day Trip to Lake Balaton (up to 7 persons)

A day trip to Lake Balaton is an excellent way to discover Hungary’s breathtaking countryside. Lake Balaton is Central Europe's largest freshwater lake, known for its stunning scenery, charming towns, and outdoor activities. The lake’s warm waters and picturesque surroundings make it a popular destination for both relaxation and adventure.

Places to visit: Some of the favourite towns around the lake include Siófok, famous for its lively beaches and the Siófok Water Tower, which offers panoramic views. Tihany is renowned for the Tihany Abbey and its lavender fields, providing stunning vistas of the lake. Balatonfüred is ideal for a relaxing lakeside stroll, wine tasting, and swimming, while Keszthely is home to the grand Festetics Palace, a must-see historical landmark.

Activities around the lake: The Balaton Bicycle Circuit offers scenic cycling routes, with bike rentals available in many towns. For those looking to swim, the beaches of Siófok and Balatonfüred are great options. You can also try sailing or join a boat tour from either of these towns. For an adrenaline boost, head to Balatonföldvár or Zánka, where you can enjoy a fun ride on the bobsled tracks (Bobbahn).

Wine and food: Lake Balaton is famous for its wine, especially from the Badacsony region, where you can sample crisp white wines like Olaszrizling. Don’t forget to try some local Hungarian dishes such as Lángos (fried dough topped with cheese or garlic), Halászlé (traditional fish soup), and Pörkölt (a hearty stew). For dessert, indulge in the beloved Túró Rudi, a sweet treat made of curd cheese coated in chocolate.
