Hungary · CANOES & KAYAKS
The good kayak trips go early and the best go first. Here are 5 to lock in, what each includes, and how they differ.
Review of Budapest’s one-hour paddle steamer cruise, with Tokaj Frizzante, audio guide, heated seating, landmark views, tips, and value advice.
“A very fun and informative tour! We enjoyed and learned from the narration; staff were friendly and helpful.”
Hike to Julianus Lookout, paddle the Danube Bend, and enjoy private hotel transfers on this active day trip from Budapest.
“If I could give this activity 10 stars, I would! Gyuri and Nikki were fabulous guides and everything about the day was splendid. The Danube Bend is beautiful and an area of Hungary that should not be missed.”
Paddle across Lake Balaton’s Tihany National Park on a guided SUP tour with equipment, nature views, free parking, and swim breaks.
“Akos and Andreas were super friendly. Contact around the event was really easy. My boyfriend and I had a great time as first time suppers, as the explanation was clear and it was a very small group. We ended up doing the sunset tour instead. You can take your phone in a waterproof case to take extra photos (although some pictures will be taken). We really recommend taking a big water bottle on the paddle board! We took too little and were very thirsty on the water, as it was really hot.”
Paddle a quiet Danube branch north of Budapest, visit a small island, learn canoeing basics, and enjoy nature with a private guide.
“Robert was really knowledgable about the area. He also made sure we felt safe and that we were enjoying the activity. We had lunch in a hidden local restaurant where the food was great, and we had time to rest and enjoy the nice weather. I really recommend the activity and Robert who was really nice from beginning to end.”
Paddle 15 km down the Danube from Budapest, swim by islands, enjoy lunch in Leányfalu, and add a sauna or Danube beach.
“Nice communication prior to activity, and a Great day on the river with humorous guides. Works Well for large groups.”
Pick a boat, a hot pool, a cellar or a road out of town.
