Два Великодні — одна подорож
Закарпаття — єдиний регіон України, де католицький та православний Великдень святкують поруч. Угорські, словацькі та українські громади живуть разом і зберігають кожна свої традиції. Забронюйте 7-10 ночей — і переживіть обидва свята за одну подорож.
Весняне цвітіння: сакура та нарциси
Великдень у Закарпатті збігається з весняним цвітінням. Сакура в Ужгороді розквітає з середини квітня, а Долина нарцисів біля Хуста — з початку травня. Подовжіть перебування після свят — і побачте найкрасивішу весну в Україні.
