Budapest Puszta Day Trip to Kecskemet with Horse Show & Lunch
Description
Come and be part of an amazing experience - visit the Hungarian Puszta (part of the Great Plain). First we visit Kecskemét to see the difference between a town in the countryside and the bustling city of Budapest. We continue to Lajosmizse. On arrival at the farm we taste ’barackpálinka’ (apricot brandy) as a welcome drink. Before a horse-show we get on a carriage for a ride in the ’puszta’. Our program goes on with the stunning attraction of the Hungarian ’csikós’ (Hungarian horsemen). To make your day complete and memorable - we’ll spoil you with delicious country-style lunch (3-course meal with a glass of wine), which will be served in a Hungarian inn "Csárda" . Return to Budapest, the tour ends in the city center.

Our guide Kristina was very thoughtful and gave a lot of interesting information. The restaurant was fantastic and the place felt very welcoming. The meal was traditional Hungarian food and was worth every penny. As for the horse show, while a bit short it is definitely worth seeing.
Thank you very much for taking the time to share your review! We’re delighted to hear you had an amazing tour and that Kristina contributed to making your day special. We hope to welcome you back again soon!
A nice little trip to Kecskemet and a chance to see a bit more of Hungary. Our guide, Elisabeth, was knowlegable and informative. The horse show didn't amount to much but we did get to see the horses up close and watch them race around.
We are really thankful for your feedback again. It’s great to hear that you had a wonderful trip. Hope to see you again soon
Relaxed and engaging. This tour with Attila (who else in Hungary?) was wonderful. Being able to walk into places we would otherwise walk past was great.
Thank you very much for your feedback! It is good to hear that you had an enjoyable trip.
My wife and i went on this venture. It was fun but LOTS of down time and we had no idea it was a full day journey as we were leaving BUDAPEST early the next morning. Also had a hard time finding the meeting place. Please indicate going forward that the the meeting place is inside the Intercontintel hote. Thanks, Chris Schneck
Thanks for your feedback. Puszta DAY TRIP is a full day programe. The duration of the Puszta tour is 10hrs, you can find it in our brochure and webpage as well. We indicate everywhere that our office is located in the Hotel Intercontinental.
Learned a bit of the history of Budapest on the drive out of town, enjoyed the walking tour of Kecskemet, had a fantastic and filling lunch, followed by an amazing demonstration of the Hungarian horsemen. The van provided a comfortable ride and our guide (Yolonda) was very knowledgeable and friendly. What a great way to experience the Great Plains of Hungary!
Thank you for your time to give us such a nice review! We are really glad to hear that you had a pleasant time with us and got amazing memories.
The guide was ok on the road . Kecshemet was nice, enjoyed walking through square with vendors. The horse show was totally disorganized, we spent a lot of time standing around with no idea where to go next. This is where our guide was not good, he gave us no guidance at show. The food was good at the show...the show was ok but very short once we figured out where we were supposed to be. Overall we were disappointed and it was not a very good choice for our last day in Budapest.
A very good day trip outside of the city. The guide was informative and helpful. We had a good driver. We had a lovely walk around with stop for coffee and cake then a good lunch at Puszta then an excellent carriage ride. Interesting walk around stables and a good show where you could crack your own whip if you wanted
Nice company. Reception with one local drink. Delicious lunch. Trip with one carriage and pasrdenshow. N beautiful excursion. Recommended!
We are really thankful for your kind review
Klara was a great tour guide. Keczkemet is a cute town in the Hungarian Plain. The church bell chimes was a pleasure to listen to. We got to see Lipizzaner horses, Hungarian Gray Cattle, and observe traditional Hungarian horse dressage and training. The lunch that was served as part of the tour was delicious and generous in quantity.
Thank you for taking the time and sharing your experiences. It is a pleasure to read your lovely review about the tour, we are very happy that you are satisfied with our service and the guide Clara as well.
The sightseeing in Kecskemét, the horse show and lunch were all good. The gouache soup we served at lunch was very good with lots of beef and potatoes! The apricot jam on the dessert milk pie Tejespite is also excellent. The ease of getting there by bus from Budapest is also good. I highly recommend this tour.
Thank you very much for your feedback!
