Day 8

Budapest and individual return journey home

Take advantage of the day to sightsee in the busy Danube metropolis. Many view the city as being the most beautifully located city in the world: The Danube flows through the city like a silver thread and separates the two sections of the city; Buda and Pest. Although the city in its modern form is only 100 years old, visitors can feel the remnants of the style and glamour of the monarchy throughout the city. We would also be more than happy to extend your stay in Budapest or Vienna.
