      Start in Hungary's capital. Visit the Castle District before 10 AM to avoid crowds and get great city views. Spend your afternoon relaxing at Széchenyi Thermal Baths (4200-5000 HUF).

    • Day 2

      Budapest to Krakow

      Start your day at the Great Market Hall for a traditional Hungarian breakfast. Try the lángos, a local favorite of fried bread with toppings. Visit Nem Adom Fel Café, which supports locals with disabilities, before catching your overnight train to Krakow. Book upper bunks for better air flow and pack some snacks since dining car options are limited.

    • Day 3

      Krakow

      Arrive early in Krakow. The main square (Rynek Główny) starts buzzing around 8 AM. Perfect time for coffee and watching the city wake up. Take the Auschwitz tour (155 PLN) but book ahead as it fills up fast. Or explore the Jewish Quarter of Kazimierz. "The Old Jewish Quarter gives such perspective on pre-war Jewish life - the small synagogues and quiet courtyards tell countless stories," one visitor noted.

    • Day 4

      Krakow to Prague

      Take the morning train to Prague (8 hours). Pick seats in the middle cars for a smoother ride. Get your bearings in Prague's Old Town when you arrive. Spend your evening at a beer hall, but remember they usually stop serving food by 9 PM. Skip the tourist spots near Old Town Square and head to Žižkov for more authentic options.
