Budapest to Krakow Walking Tour

Hungary – Slovakia - Poland

Journey Highlights:

Budapest and the fascinating Pilis mountains affording breathtaking views of the Danube Canyon

Krakow – for centuries the capital of Poland and the seat of Polish kings

Scenic beauty of the mountainous Slovak countryside

Quaint charm of the towns of Banska Stiavnica and Levoca, undisturbed by crowds

Imposing Spis Castle towering on a steep limestone bluff

Authentic local cuisine, lovely hotels in historical buildings

Itinerary includes four UNESCO World Heritage Sites and four National Parks.

After two days in fascinating northern Hungary (Duna Ipoly National Park, Visegrad Castle, the Danube Canyon, the town of Szentendre) we make our way north to the UNESCO-listed town of Banska Stiavnica, the most romantic of Slovak towns.

Our journey takes us through the Low and the High Tatras National Parks, as well as through many historic villages, castles and towns scattered throughout the Slovak countryside. On the northern side of the High Tatras lies Krakow, a gem among Polish cities and the seat of Polish kings for more than 500 years; relatively untouched by World War II, it is a thriving center of art and culture.

During our eight-day exploration, we will walk through the mysterious Carpathian Mountains, ancient villages and UNESCO-listed towns, and spend time in the magnificent cities of Budapest and Krakow.

Auschwitz, the infamous Nazi concentration camp, and UNESCO protected Wieliczka Salt Mine are located near Krakow.
