Danube Bend — Szentendre, Visegrád, Esztergom

Follow the right bank of the Danube on Route 11: 12 km from Parliament to Óbuda, then another 20 km to Szentendre, a painters’ town shaped in the 18th century by Serbian and Dalmatian settlers, with terracotta roofs, cobbled lanes, and the Kovács Margit and Ferenczy museums. Upstream, Visegrád’s 14th‑century citadel rises to 333 m above the river’s tightest meanders between Nagymaros and Pilismarót. Twenty more kilometers bring you to Esztergom, whose basilica, consecrated in 1856, looks across the Mária Valéria Bridge to Slovakia.

Pickup at your hotel around 9:00; your Mercedes stays at your disposal all day while you browse galleries, taste local bites, and frame the views—no parking worries. In Szentendre, your Amani Limousines chauffeur arranges a coffee stop, then it’s on to Visegrád for the panorama from the Upper Castle and a waterside lunch. The afternoon continues to Esztergom for the dome and crypt before looping back via the opposite bank or the M2, timing the light to reach Budapest around 5:30 pm.
