From Budapest: Puszta Horse Show and Countryside Visit

From Budapest: Puszta Horse Show and Countryside Visit

Budapest is a great city, but it can be a little overwhelming sometimes. Its size and busy streets can drive even the most experienced urban traveler to the woods. So why not get out of the city and into the colorful landscape of the Hungarian Plains, the "Puszta"? Here you will be able to relax much more, leave the noise of the city behind and gain a deeper understanding of the Hungarian countryside. On your day trip, you will get to visit a traditional farm, where you can watch a horse show and enjoy a fine Hungarian lunch. Lunch includes: • Goulash soup • Grilled chicken made in a traditional "Puszta" style with mixed garnish (potato, rice, vegetable) • Dessert: milk pie • 1 glass of white wine and mineral water Then take a short walk in the famous town of Kecskemét. Here you will have a chance to cool off while taking in the sights. Your guide will be happy to point you towards another good restaurant or things to do afterwards, so make sure to ask.

Discover Hungarian rural life and meet local cowboys and animals in Hungary's puszta (Great Plain) on a guided tour from Budapest.

Wonderful experience! The ranch itself is a beautiful place and animals are all well taken care of, strong houses and cute sheep! The greeting of cowboy was a welcome and pleasant surprise. House show was spectacular and beautiful!! Definitely one of the best🩷 lunch also great, especially the live classical music makes it so much enjoyable. Highly recommended it! Not only spend a beautiful time in nature and animals, the atmosphere and cultural scenes are amazing, all come together making it a special memory to me!

A fun and memorable day in Hungary. Our wonderful guide Maria told us about Hungary’s complicated and vast history. The ranch was beautiful and the horse show was amazing! I would definitely recommend this trip if you’d like to experience more of Hungary than just Budapest. Great for all ages!

Maria was a very entertaining and informative guide. The horse show was spectacular and the lunch was delicious and generous. Kecskemet was a pretty town and the bus ride was comfortable.

What a fabulous day Especially if u love horses Visiting the stables Watching the Hungarian horseman was amazing Highly recommend

We are really enjoyed the puszta with the lunch. I think Kecskemet is a nice town but would skip it, because the timing.
