Visegrád Hop-On

This one’s all about doing whatever you feel like. Hop off for an ice cream, a hike, or a cozy lunch wherever it looks good, then just catch the next boat and keep going. No stress, no clock-watching as boats keep looping between the best spots of the Danube Bend: Visegrád – Nagymaros – Zebegény – Nagymaros – Visegrád. Whether it’s the Zebegény views, hiking around Dömös, or grabbing fish by the river in Nagymaros, you’re totally on your own schedule.
