Hi All: Heading to Budapest the last week in April and have a half day or so free before our river cruise. We would like to go out into the countryside to a small town or village to see the rural (non-touristy) lifestyle. Possibly ride a horse in the countryside. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks, Joel
You will soon see a message here from Worldinbetween. She has the answer to this.
James, Ray, World: Thanks for the suggestions. We'll report back if we find some horses! The canoe trip sounds like fun, too! joel
As a result of the Ft. Riley Maneuvers in 1938; the horse has been replaced with a mechanized cavalry. So go riding: http://www.budapest.com/leisure/special_programmes/daytime_programmes/tank_driving.en.html
Thanks, all. Checked out Bugac - and the kuriltajac (?) which is the gathering of the Hun tribes in Bugac. Sounds like a fun, unusual event. But it's in August.
Modern cavalry also looks like fun. Thanks!
My wife got very proficient in the tank. Loved it.
I so want to drive a tank. It appears it for groups or really expensive. I think Prague was more reasonable. I'll have to check when I get there...
