    Asked on May 12th, 2025

    Can you tell me which airports I should be arriving and departing from for this tour?

    Flights / Transfers
    Tour Details
    • Travel TalkOperatorWritten May 2025

      Arrival Airport: Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport (BUD). You'll need to fly into Budapest for the tour start on Day 1. The tour begins with a welcome meeting at the hotel. Departure Airport: Munich Airport (MUC). The tour ends in Munich on Day 8 after breakfast. You'll need to book your homebound flight from Munich.

      Judy

      TravelerWritten May 2025

      I noticed the age range for this tour is 18-69, is that just a suggested age range? I'm looking to book something for my mother and I, she's 74. She's in good health, very mobile.

    • Travel TalkOperatorWritten May 2025

      The 18–69 age range is more of a guideline than a strict rule. As long as your mother is in good health, mobile, and you'll be accompanying her on the tour, there's absolutely no issue with her joining. We've had many travelers outside the suggested range who've had a great experience.
