Hungarian Adventures

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to do something that none of your friends have ever done? Have you ever wondered what it would be like to go to a place where normal rules just don’t apply? Now you can.

Not that long ago Westerners were forbidden from entering the Soviet Block. Tales of espionage, murder and mayhem gripped the imagination. Even now, the BBC is exploiting that feeling. But maybe, just maybe you think it is time that you made the effort and became a Spook yourself.

In Hungary we have gained access to a series of great tours that are ideally suited for both individuals and groups who want to experience something completely new. These are the perfect trips to add on to your F1 tour or for stag/hen parties and corporate events. Either way you will never forget the experience.

Hungarian Adventures

End Date :	19-12-2019

Take a look at these amazing adventures.

First of all we have negotiated the best deals at an amazing off road centre where you can experience at first hand the way it used to be, before traffic wardens, parking metres and conformity ruled the land.

Pumpkin Tours are delighted to be able to offer you an opportunity to drive a whole range of Soviet Era armed vehicles, from the T52 tank that invaded Hungary to a selection of other armoured fighting vehicles and troop carriers that are simply not known in the West. The day is filled with vertical climbs and descents with gun barrels bouncing and wheels and tracks spinning in the mud. You get a full meal served in old fashioned tin pans plus all the adrenaline rush you can cope with.

We can also offer you a trip in an ancient Antonov aircraft, circa WW2. The plane seats 15 and cruises so slowly that you will wonder how it stay up. Words can’t describe the feeling. To say it is unique is an understatement.

Or how about taking a trip in a WW2 PO-2 biplane? The plane will fly you over the city and only 1 person at a time can fly. This is truly a once in a lifetime experience. The wind in your hair, seat of the pants flying that only your grandad would really understand.

Don’t be alarmed. All our trips are certified by the authorities and no one has been injured or killed but without that frisson of danger it wouldn’t be worth doing now, would it?

Whilst you are in Budapest with us we can also arrange series of other adventures such as caving in the Pal-Volgyi caves, visiting the secret Nuclear bunkers under the Castle in Buda and even indoor karting at the biggest indoor arena in the city.

Then when it all gets too much we will take you for a legendary massage at one of the many spa baths in the city. You can have Thai, Swedish, Turkish or Shiatzu massages and relax in a sauna or hot tub until the aches and pains from the tank fade away.

For more details we suggest you watch Michael Palin’s visit when he went around the world in 80 days. You won’t want to miss out.

Prices for the tank driving vary dependent upon the season so please contact us first. Flights on the PO-2 start at an incredible £150 per person. Nuclear Bunker tours are from only £12 per person.
