Description

Good to Know

The northern shore of Lake Balaton is one of the most unique landscapes of Hungary. Along this tour we would like to show you the less touristy, off-the-beaten-path treasures of the region. Since for both of us working at Wine it Up this region is a second home, you can trust us on picking the best of it for you to show.

This is one of our personal favourites. This charming hill patched with family-run wineries is a remnant of a volcano, which is reflected in the character of its wines.

Magical Day Trip

Our guide, Krisztina, made our visit to Lake Balaton extremely memorable. She was very knowledgeable and so friendly. We loved spending time with her in an incredibly picturesque setting. The winery was beautiful, the wine was delicious, and the hostess was so kind and thoughtful. Highly recommend this tour.

What a fantastic day....

What a fantastic day. Kriszti, our guide was brilliant. Really knowledgable and shared our passion for wine and the local area. We had a great day out and nice to get out of Budapest for the day.
