During these more than 2 decades of existence we have received groups from more than 60 countries all over the world. However, over and above the ’general’ touristic programmes and packages we specialize in thematic tours (cultural, professional, gastronomical, in nature, etc.) in the last 14 years organizing European roundtrips, music tours and wine tours became the most important elements of our field of activity.
During these years we learned and gained experience of how we can perfectly organize your wine tour in Central Europe. Thanks to the wide spread professional relationships, we have established good contacts with suppliers, professional agencies, wineries and cultural institutions in Hungary, Austria, Czech Republic, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Italy, Poland and Germany, which allow you to lean back, and entrust the complex organizational tasks to us.
A Budaventura Travel egy 1993 óta fennálló Közép-európai beutaztató utazásszervező.
Ezalatt a több, mint két évtized alatt a világ több, mint 60 országából fogadtunk vendégeket. “Általános” turisztikai ajánlat-csomagjaink mellett tematikus utakra szakosodtunk (szakmai-, vallási-, gasztronómiai, stb.), és az utóbbi 14 évben az európai zenei-, és borturisztikai körutak is a specialitásunkká váltak.
Az időközben szerzett tapasztalatok révén kikristályosodtak ismereteink, és kiterjedtek kapcsolataink Közép-Európa szerte utazási irodákkal, borászatokkal és kulturális intézményekkel Magyarországon, Ausztriában, Csehországban, Szlovákiában, Olaszországban, Németországban, és Szlovéniában, így mindenütt komplex szolgáltatásokat tudunk nyújtani.
