We will take you on a spectacular 10-days gay group tour, crossing Europe: Budapest capital of Hungary; Prague capital of Czech Republic; Berlin capital of Germany. Budapest, where every corner of oozes with history, charm, and beauty. The city's architecture is unrivaled. Explore the Buda Side and the Pest Side of Budapest. Visit places like the Szechenyi Chain Bridge and the Buda Castle, the Hungarian Parliament Building, Saint Stephen's Basilica among others. Aside from the natural beauty that seeps through the city in the form of the majestic Danube River and gorgeous green spaces, the buildings themselves also add to the air of sumptuousness.
Prague, capital of the Czech Republic and birthplace of writer Franz Kafka, is for many one of the most charming cities in Central Europe. And we agree! It's practically impossible not to fall in love when you visit Prague! Called the Paris of Eastern Europe because of the valuable arts and cultural scene, great restaurants, lovely gardens and history, lots of history.
Berlin is best known for its striking contrasts. Historical buildings stand alongside modern architecture as the past and present intermingle. The sights Berlin has to offer, from the Brandenburg Gate to the Chancellor's Office, bear witness to the history of an entire nation. Germany's capital is home to all the main government buildings, including the historical Reichstag building as the seat of the German parliament.
Berlin consistently tops the list of the most gay-friendly cities in Europe and is an LGBT destination not to be missed. With a lively nightlife with all kinds of bars and clubs you can imagine, there are also many cafes, saunas and gay sex-shops. The offer is varied and for everyone.
