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.

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.

We had an incredible tour with Idilko and a private driver in a Mercedes van (he was not introduced by he was very competent!). My husband and I did the tour with my 80 year old parents and both staff were kind and patient and showed us the highlights of the city while keeping in mind to avoid long walks or lots of stairs. Idilko is incredibly knowledgable about the long and interesting history of her city. We really enjoyed getting to know beautiful Budapest; we’ll be back!

We really wanted to get out of Budapest and into the country to chill out, but didn't really know how to get out there. So we booked the Etyek Tour. I'm not a big into wine culture, but my wife thought we should try it out. We both had a great time! We didn't have to travel far and felt like we reached a whole new dimension of great wine, good company and powerful stories. If it's your first time in Hungary or you're back for another visit- go for this wine tour, I highly recommend it!

We spotted this winery while passing through Bodrogkisfalud and stopped to check it out. We were very glad we did. Although we didn’t do the tour the staff were very helpful and knowledgeable. The winery has a very ‘classy’ feel and reflects the tradition and deep of passion for wine. In addition to their wines there is a lot of other wine-related food products too. well worth a visit and a chance to sample, and buy, excellent wine.
