D1Budapest day trip

In Budapest, one can find the romance of gold and steel. To the left lies Buda's millennium-old crown, shimmering in the morning light of Fisherman's Bastion. To the right, Pest's Parliament House shines like stars in the night waters of the Danube. The Chain Bridge connects not only the two banks, but also history and the future, tranquility and bustle. The beauty here is both the magnificent glimpse of the Parliament Building under the sunset and the warm comfort of a bowl of guloush soup rising from a corner restaurant—Budapest, an ever-flowing, two-sided poem on the Danube.

[Friday]Itinerary:

Széchenyi Chain Bridge (20 mins) → Szabadsag hid (20 mins) → St. Stephen's Cathedral (exterior view, 20 mins) → Fisherman's Bastion (entrance fee included, 45 mins) → Matthias Church (entrance fee included, 30 mins) → The Hungarian Parliament Building (entrance fee and audio guide included, 45 mins) → Heroes' Square (exterior view, 15 mins) → Budapest City Park (20 mins)

D2Budapest>Saint Andrew>Budapest

Departing from Budapest that day, we'll travel to the charming town of Sándor Andrews to experience the relaxed atmosphere and cultural richness of a Hungarian village. Afterwards, we'll return to Budapest and enjoy free time on the elegant Andrássy Avenue, strolling leisurely through its streets. In the evening, we'll take a Danube River cruise. As the buildings along the banks gradually light up, the entire city seems to be enchanted. This dazzling panorama of the "Pearl of the Danube" unfolds like a meticulously crafted stage; at that moment, you'll understand why it's called the "Paris of the East." Enjoy the stunning night views and iconic landmarks along the riverbanks, immersing yourself in the romantic scenery of the Danube.

[Saturday] Itinerary:

Budapest → Szentendre (2 hours) → Budapest → Andrássy út (Free time, 3 hours) → Danube River Cruise (ticket included, 45 mins)

D3Budapest>Bratislava>Prague

Departing from Budapest that day, we'll travel to Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia. Nestled in the heart of Europe, the Danube River flows quietly, nurturing a low-key yet charming city – Bratislava. It lacks the hustle and bustle of Paris and the grandeur of Rome, yet possesses a unique allure. Wander through this quaint and exquisite European city, experiencing a distinctly different Central European atmosphere and cultural charm. After enjoying the local cityscape, we'll head to Prague for a leisurely cross-border trip.

[Sunday]Itinerary:

Budapest → Bratislava (1.5 hours) → Bratislava Castle (exterior) → St. Martin's Church (exterior) → St. Elizabeth's Church (exterior) → Bratislava Old Town → Prague

D4Prague city tour

Today, we will visit Prague, the City of a Thousand Spires. Prague is a city where you can slow down and breathe. The cobblestone streets of the Old Town gleam with an amber light in the sunlight, and the sounds of church bells and street violins blend together, like a scene from an old movie. At dusk, along the Vltava River, the wind carries the aroma of bread, people play violins on the bridge, someone proposes, even the wind carries a romantic rhythm.

[Monday]Itinerary:

Dancing House (exterior, 15 mins) → Prague Castle District (ticket included, 2 hours) → St. Vitus Cathedral (ticket included) → Golden Lane (ticket included) → Charles Bridge (exterior, 45 mins) → The Astronomical Clock (exterior, 30 mins) → Old Town Square (free time, 3 hours)

D5Prague>Herborka Castle>Krumlov

Departing from Prague that day, we visited the breathtaking Hluboka Castle, admiring its elegant and beautiful architecture and gardens. Afterwards, we arrived in the old town of Český Krumlov. If Prague is a grand symphony, then Český Krumlov is a pastoral poem that lingers in the heart. Escape the hustle and bustle and fall into the beauty of this charming town. The play of light and shadow on the castle, the gentle breeze along the river, the aroma of coffee on street corners… it seems the scenes from fairy tales truly exist here. We leisurely strolled through this fairytale-like medieval town, immersing ourselves in the gentle riverside scenery and rich historical atmosphere, fully experiencing the unique medieval charm of southern Czech Republic.

[Tuesday] Itinerary:

Prague → Hluboká Castle (ticket included, 45 mins) → Český Krumlov (3 hours)

D6Český Krumlov>Hallstatt>St. Wolfgang>Salzburg

In Austria's Salzkammergut region, two pearls reside side-by-side—Hallstatt, like a classical poem, and St. Wolfgang, like a pastoral idyll. Starting from Český Krumlov, head to the stunning lakeside town of Hallstatt, immersing yourself in the breathtaking Alpine scenery where lakes and mountains meet, and experiencing the pure, dreamlike natural beauty. Continue to St. Wolfgang, strolling through the leisurely atmosphere of the lakeside town and taking in the stunning landscapes of the Salzkammergut region. Finally, arrive in Salzburg, the music capital, to fully appreciate the Central European lakescapes and romantic town charm.

[Wednesday] Itinerary:

Český Krumlov → Hallstatt (1.5 hours) → St. Wolfgang (1.5 hours) → Salzburg

D7Salzburg>Vienna

Visit Salzburg, the music capital. Salzburg, known as the "heart of Europe," is not only the birthplace of musical genius Mozart but also the stage for "The Sound of Music," where Baroque architecture and Alpine scenery blend perfectly. Salzburg writes its architectural epic in stone and its urban soul in musical notes. Afterwards, travel to Vienna to visit Schönbrunn Palace (admission included), admiring its luxurious architecture and exquisite gardens, experiencing the classical romance and European royal charm of these two Austrian cities.

[Thursday] Itinerary:

Salzburg (2 hours) → Mirabell Gardens → Griesgasse → Residenzplatz → Vienna → Schonbrunn Palace (ticket included, 1.5 hours)

D8Vienna day trip

Today we will embark on an in-depth tour of Vienna's city center. Stepping into Vienna is like turning the pages of an ancient poetry book, each page a romantic footnote. Sunlight streams in, and we stroll along, following the sounds of street musicians playing violins. We pass centuries-old buildings, their wall reliefs telling tales of the past. The aroma of coffee wafting from corner cafes mingles with the subtle music in the air. The Danube flows gently, boats glide slowly along its banks, and distant palaces shimmer with golden light in the afterglow. Life here is art in slow motion. Experience the rich classical artistic atmosphere and architectural splendor of this music capital. Afterwards, we will visit the Golden Hall (admission included), experiencing firsthand the grandeur of this world-class music venue. Then, we will check out the Vienna Central Café, immersing ourselves in classic Austrian culture and romantic European charm.
