A great day trip! The perfect choice for my first day - I did not have to get up too early, and, the tour was a nice, easy pace all day. Ample time to explore on my own at the different stops. Great driver and tour guide. Very knowledgeable and professional. I plan to arrange another of your tours on my next visit!

It was great trip. We liked the porcelain making demonstration in Herend and the views of lake Balaton and also the village which we stopped by to have lunch.

Lake Balaton and Herend Porcelain Manufactory are both worth visiting. The stops at the abbey and the surrounding tourist village, and the lunch break were time restricted. There is not enough time to visit the church and also have a good look around the nice shops and maybe stop for a refreshment. Also the 50 minute lunch break is too short to enjoy the good food served at the beach restaurants. But, all in all, it was a very nice experience and highly recommended.

This trip was amazing. Who would of thought that this beautiful lake existed. Vera was a great guide and very knowledgeable. It is definitely worth a visit if staying in Budapest.

Lovely day on the lake Balaton. We were a small group of four with a guide. Had a wonderful day visiting the Herend porcelain factory and the lake. Had a wonderful lunch and actually had a swim in the lake.

Our day started by getting picked up from the hotel by taxi which took us to the meeting point. Our guide was very informative and made a good job. Lake Balaton is indeed HUGE, Hungarians consider this to be their seaside. The view from the Tihany Abbey makes you appreciate the lake even more so. The tour round Herend Porcelain Manufactory is recommended if nothing else but to respect and admire the skills of the craftspersons. We were very lucky with the weather on the day, the peace and tranquillity of the area were soaked in!
