エゲルへのプライベート 1 日ツアー - 歴史、文化、ワイン

We had an outstanding full-day private tour with Gergely during our visit to Hungary. He is incredibly knowledgeable about Hungarian history and brought the story of Eger Castle and the city’s heroic defense to life. His English was excellent, and he paced the day perfectly despite temperatures approaching 100°F. One of the unexpected highlights was lunch at a local restaurant, where Gergely encouraged us to try Hungary’s traditional cold strawberry soup. As a food scientist, I found it fascinating. It was light, refreshing, and absolutely perfect on such an incredibly hot day. It’s something we never would have discovered on our own. After exploring historic Eger, Gergely took us to the Valley of the Beautiful Women, where we enjoyed two excellent wine tastings. He introduced us to outstanding local wineries and helped us discover wines that offer exceptional quality and value compared with what we’re accustomed to in California. We came home with several bottles of Egri Bikavér and Egri Csillag that will always remind us of this special day. Gergely was friendly, professional, flexible, and genuinely passionate about sharing his country. If you’re looking for an authentic experience in Eger that combines history, culture, outstanding local food, and exceptional wines, we couldn’t recommend him more highly.

We had a wonderful time on our guided tour to Eger. Our guide was professional, knowledgeable, and punctual throughout the trip. The whole experience felt well-organized and personal — a true white-glove experience. Eger itself is a great destination, and having such a capable guide made it even better. Highly recommend. 5 stars.

Our guide Gergely was great! We were able to customize our trip (visit Gödöllő palace), never felt rushed and still were able to hit all the highlights of the planned tour.

Eger was a charming town with an interesting castle. We ate lunch at a wonderful restaurant recommended by our guide and had a little time to explore the town and get coffee afterward. The wine cellars were fun to explore as well but our focus was Eger. Our guide was very knowledgeable in the history of Hungary and enjoyable to ride with. Would highly recommend this tour!

We were traveling to Eger to see the area where my grandfather lived before emigrating to the United States in 1905. Gergely was very helpful in locating archival photographs of Eger from the early 1900s and provided a detailed history that helped us understand the social and cultural context of that time. Everything about this tour was first rate from beginning to end.

We enjoyed touring the castle and the town of Eger. Gergely is an exceptionally knowledgeable guide and he gave us a very thorough explanation of the history of the area, and he recommended a nice restaurant in town for lunch. After lunch we saw the wine country and visited the area where many cellars are offering wine tastings. He asked us how many wines we wanted to try and what kinds we liked, and he made good recommendations. Lastly, he took us to see a natural hot spring that was being captured and routed to pools where people could bathe (although we did not have enough time to soak on just a day trip). Everyone in Hungary visits this area at one time or another because of its historical importance of the castle. If you have Hungarian roots, or if you’ve been to Budapest before and want to do something different and see more of the countryside, I highly recommend this tour with Gergely. However, you should bear in mind that it is nearly two hours driving each way from Budapest, and if it is your first visit to the area or if you are not deeply interested in Hungarian history, your time would probably be best spent on other tours. The town is interesting but I would not call it a “must see,” and there are certainly good wine cellars for tastings that are closer to Budapest. All in all, we had a very good day and Gergely was an excellent guide, but we might have preferred to spend our day closer to Budapest.

We had emailed Gergely to ask for a more wine focused day in Eger and we were more than delighted with the itinerary. The information on the drive out of Budapest was really interesting as was the drive to Eger. On arrival we explored the Eger Castle then went to visit some wineries - all of which were amazing. We visited some wonderful cellars and met owners. The day was full from the 8:30am start to arriving back around 7pm. Gergely is wonderfully friendly and really knowledgeable. Highly recommended!

Gergely was such a wonderful tour guide. My partner and I went on this tour in mid-June and highly recommend it. Visiting the castle in Eger was super cool and Gergely was super knowledgeable about the history of not only the castle but also the whole village. He did a fantastic job of taking us around and making sure the tour was not only informative but also very entertaining and enjoyable. He allowed us many chances to tailor the tour to our liking. Visiting the valley of the beautiful women was also a highlight and again Gergely gave us the chance to choose what we'd like to do in terms of the wine tastings, and also proved to be a very helpful translator when needed. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Gergely did an absolutely amazing job touring Eger! He picked us up at our hotel in Budapest. He was prompt and the car was immaculate and extremely comfortable. While we drove to Eger, he took the time to explain Budapest a bit to us and then gave us some history on Hungary as well. He properly set expectations for us in Eger and was a wealth of knowledge. I would recommend anyone to do a tour with Gergely as he was extremely friendly and offered recommendations as a local. Thank you for such a great day!

I experienced a great tour with Gergely. He picked me up from my hotel on time. We drove to the town of Eger in eastern Hungary by a nice, comfortable car. We visited the medieval castle and the beautiful old town with the basilica, followed by a great wine tasting. Gergely is a tour guide with a very good knowledge of history, but we also had great conversations on current topics such as economics and politics. I recommend his services to everyone who really wants to get a great overview of Hungary in a short time.
