Dive into the heart of Central Europe with a trip that blends vibrant city life, rich history, and natural wonders—on a budget that young travellers will love. Wander through Budapest’s thermal spas, ruin pubs, and buzzing café scene before venturing out to charming towns like Eger and Pécs, where medieval streets, local wine, and youthful energy collide.
Craving nature? Hike between vineyards and waterfalls around Eger, bathe in Lake Balaton—Hungary’s “Sea”—or explore caves in Lillafüred or the plains of Hortobágy National Park. Low costs, strong culture, and landscapes that shift from thermal springs to rugged wilderness make Hungary an unforgettable stop on any backpacker’s map.
