You will enjoy stunning views, tiny villages with century-old whitewashed houses, amazing formations of nature. Balaton Uplands has been chosen by Mastercard users one of the Top 15 Hidden Treasures travel destinations of Europe. The 10 hour tour is filled with beauties of nature, interesting history and (if you opt in by sending us a message) very good wine! The beauty of the nature, the great gastronomy, the fresh wines, the charme of the villages and the historical and architectural heritage of the region are all good reasons to make a visit here
