Going on holiday next week, which involves flying into Budapest, having a week spare before going to a festival in Serbia, then another week spare afterwards. Anyone got any advice of places in Hungary or ex-Yugoslavian countries worth going to?
Everything I know about that region of the world was learnt off Newsround during the Balkans War. So if we go with what I know we'll be going to Sarajevo and Split...

Croatia, Montenegro, Serbia, great beaches and scenery, especially MOntenegro. Croatia is very similar to some Italian resorts.
Slovenia is great too.
Estonia is worth visiting, Tallinn is an amazing city, and there is some nice countryside in Estonia also.
Budapest is also fantastic, get there now before its taken over by stag partys like Prague has. Once you've decided I can probably tell you some good stuff to see and do etc.
Belgrade also a great place and Sarajevo is fascinating too.

I think the original has been rebuilt.
Have heard lots of good things about Croatia though I haven't been.
In Eastern Europe I've only really been to Prague (lovely, but stag do's could be a problem in the summer - I went in January). I've only recently come back from Vilnius in Lithuania, which would be a fair trek from Hungary and the Balkans. It was a lovely place though, not a huge amount to do, but a lot of good bars, cafe's restaurants and good for people watching!!
Also Croatia - spent a week in Dubrovnik which is well worth a visit
