Are you ready for a big European adventure by rail? Well, welcome to Budapest! The first stop on our epic Euro tour. Check in any time, the afternoon is yours to spend as you please. Budapest is filled with rich history and stunning architecture so take a look around! In the evening, we’ll meet up with your fellow TruTravellers and get this party started! We’ll head out to see the city at night as we grab dinner and drinks and get to know each other better!

Get ready to make a splash at Budapest's iconic Szechenyi Thermal Bath! Before we hit the hot tubs, we'll stroll through the city on an orientation walk. Then, it's bathing suit time! You're free to soak as long as you like. And when the sun sets, it's time to crank up the fun! Our bar crawl will take us to Budapest's legendary Ruin bars, and our first stop is none other than Szimpla Kert – the ultimate Ruin bar experience. Get ready to "ruin" your evening in the best way possible, surrounded by colourful cocktails and terrible dance moves from the TruFam. When on tour right?

Today, you can snooze a little longer and grab a lie in. It was a big night. Feeling adventurous? Consider visiting the stunning Parliament building; it's a real eye-catcher! But don't rush – this is your free time to relax or explore at your own pace. Take a leisurely stroll along the Danube promenade, grab a coffee at a local café, or simply unwind in one of Budapest's charming parks. As the sun dips below the horizon, we'll embark on a dreamy Danube River cruise. And if you're up for it, we might just sneak in some extra bar-hopping – because Budapest's nightlife is a wild ride!

Pack your bags, TruFam; Vienna, here we come! We’ll hop on the train and head to our next destination. Before we get too cosy in Austria, we'll take a quick orientation walk and then indulge in some Austrian spirits in the evening. Vienna, often called the "City of Music" and the "City of Dreams," offers 10/10 experiences to explore. From the ornate Schönbrunn Palace to the delights of Sachertorte, this city is a treasure trove of culture and cuisine. Vienna is like the whole pastry section of a bakery - full of delightful treats!

Today, we're turning into Willy Wonka with a chocolate-making extravaganza. Brace yourselves for a sweet tooth takeover! During this experience, you'll learn the secrets of crafting silky-smooth chocolate, and you'll get to indulge in your own creations. But the adventure doesn't end there! We'll also be hitting up some of Vienna's coolest bars to toast to our final night in Austria. Sip on signature cocktails, challenge each other to a dance off or just sit back and unwind as you pinch yourself that yes you really are hopping around Europe! A sweet night. Sweet as chocolate some might say ;)
