Hungarian wines really are worth the trip. The tour hit 3 local producers who were very committed to their craft. Tour guide did a fine job. Very little wine gets exported so it’s wine bars in Budapest and tours that get you the experience.

My husband and I had a two person wine tasting (given to me as a birthday gift) and we had an AMAZING experience! Because of the COVID situation, private tasting are be offered at the group price and so we had the entire place to ourselves. We tasted 5 wines, if I remember correctly, and were each given our own charcuterie plate to complement the wines. We learned so much about the history of wine in Hungary and the different regions. Highly recommend - was a very special experience.
