Domestic guests spent more than 19 million guest nights in rural accommodations last year, most of whom traveled from the Pest County, the Hungarian Tourist Agency (MTÜ) told MTI on Monday based on data from the National Tourist Information Center (NTAK).

It was pointed out that two-thirds of the domestic tourist traffic came from rural accommodation in 2023, where 74 percent of the guests came from the country.

Based on the data of the NTAK created by the MTÜ, the MTÜ established that the largest number of domestic tourists from the counties, 1 million 248 thousand – not including the capital – traveled from the Pest county last year, most of whom traveled to Siófok, Hajdúszoboszló and Eger. In addition, the majority (3.1 million) of guest nights in 2023 were also spent by tourists from Pest county in the country.

The county of Győr-Moson-Sopron had the second largest number of domestic travelers, from where the tourists mostly went to Zalakaros, Balatonfüred and Siófok, as well as tourists from Komárom-Esztergom, which is on the third step of the podium.
