Szentendre Day Trip from Budapest, Budapest, Hungary (B)

This picturesque town on the Danube river is known as an “artists’ village”, because it has attracted artists of all kinds and is full of art museums and galleries. You can easily spend half a day there wandering between exhibitions, tiny cobbled alleyways and the river promenade.

I followed a recommendation from a local friend and took the train to Szentendre on an afternoon day trip from Budapest.

It’s a popular destination for visitors, but the small town did not feel crowded in any way. The atmosphere was super chilled.

If you’re visiting Budapest and have a free day or half a day, I recommend you take this day trip. Getting to Szentendre from Budapest is fast and easy and you can visit with a guided tour or use my route below for a self-guided tour.

The benefit of a guided tour is, of course, that you don’t have to do any planning.
