Ring in the New Year in this popular Eastern European capital, Topdeck style. A bustling melting pot of opulent history and modern innovation, Budapest is also fast becoming a favourite destination for nightlife in Europe. When it comes to New Year celebrations, the Hungarians sure know how to put on a show.
Itinerary
Day 1: Budapest, Hungary
Drop your gear and meet the crew. Get your bearings on a walking tour and take notes of where you wanna come back and visit tomorrow. Tonight, be introduced to some hearty Hungarian food at a local restaurant and bond with your fellow Topdeckers with a round or two.
Day 2: Budapest
Today is all yours. Snap a selfie at Buda Castle and if time allows, visit the House of Terror Museum before exploring the streets. Next up, relax at the Széchenyi Baths and indulge in a spa treatment. After a full day exploring, you deserve it. Pro tip: when night falls, hang with the hipsters and drink local fruit brandy at one of the original ruin bars.
Day 3: Budapest
A full free day for the win! Catch the sites that are left on your list, dig into some more local comfort food and stake out a local bar to ring in the New Year. Be sure to catch the fireworks tonight - the medieval city straddling the Danube river makes for an epic backdrop.
Day 4: Budapest
Our trip may be over, but you can stick around and see how the start of the year pans out (pretty well, if you're here).
