Travel to Hungary during spring break to explore this European gem. Walk along the Danube, visit coffee shops and museums, and learn about Hungarian culture and history while in the capital and the countryside.听听听
This trip starts in Budapest, a beautiful city with parks, walking paths, and museums.听 We have arranged private tours of some of the most popular sights, including the newly-renovated Opera House. We will also learn about the history, from the early kings to modern times, to help put what we see into context.听
After Budapest we will travel by private bus to the town of 痴别蝉锄辫谤茅尘, where we have the opportunity to spend time with Hungarian university students. We share meals and talk about aspects of American culture at their America Week conference. Getting to know Hungarian students and their families is often talked about afterwards as the most special part of the trip.
Finally, we will visit the picturesque Lake Balaton on our return to Budapest, where we spend a few more days seeing sights and visiting the marketplace before returning to Rochester.
