Tailor your journey to suit your interests and choose from a wide selection of cultural, culinary, active, and nature-based experiences. In Budapest, tour the Hospital in the Rock, a museum dedicated to a former secret emergency hospital and nuclear bunker. In Portugal, visit a family-owned business that has been producing wine in the Douro region since the 1870s, sampling wine and cheese whilst you explore.

Whether you’re in the mood for something gourmet one day and something active the next, the choice is entirely up to you.
