Budapest, the capital of Hungary, also known to some as the best place to party, but do not worry, today's itinerary has nothing to do with the night life of Budapest!
Budapest is such an affordable city to travel to that offers some amazing architecture and landscapes.
This is my perfect 3 days itinerary to Budapest:
Day 1:
Accomodation: There are 2 hotels I higly recommend. On the more expensive side I higly recommend the Intercontinental which ranges at about 200usd per night. It is a great hotel for its location which is right in the heart of budapest which also gets you beautiful views on the budapest bridge. The other hotel that I recommend if you are a bit more on a budget is Hotel Zenit which ranges at about 90usd per might. It is still very well located, not a modern and luxurious as the Intercotinental but it is still a 4 star hotel.
After you are all checked in into your hotel I would recommend going to the Fisherman's bastion. This is a 19th century fortress which offers the best lookout of Budapest. There are also little cafes and restaurant once you arrived up there which allow you to enjoy a bite with an incredible view. It is definitely a bit of a walk but there is also a bus available if you do not wish to walk.
After that you are going to head to the Buda Castle which is closed by. The Buda Castle is a 18th century Baroque palace. It is accessible by bus but also by Funicular which is a very fun way to get up the hill.
After that you are going to grab an afternoon snack at Brunch at the beacon, they have the best cookies and the most delicious drinks
Day 2:
On day 2 you are going to the wheel of Budapest, it is such a fun and cheap activity to have some amazing view of the city. While you are in the area have a wonder around Budapest city center, there are plenty of shops and restaurants to keep you entertain. In the afternoon you will visit the Parliament house.After the spa you will enjoy a night cruise to have a last look at all the enlighten landmarks in Budapest.
Later in the afternoon you will visit the zoo cafe. The zoo cafe is such an amazing experience where you get to touch and enjoy a drink with different animals such as snakes but also lizards, birds, cats ect. Going into the cafe is completely free but you need to purchase a drink or food. Keep in mind you must have a reservation to be able in as there are limited amount of tables.
Day 3:
On your last day you will relax at the Szechenyi thermal spa which is one of the best and largest in Europe. The spa includes 15 indoor baths and 3 large outdoors pools.
And then it is already time to go back home.
Have a safe travel xx
