Thank you very much for the information, Andrea! I definitely will have to go back to Hungary! You've provided me with lots of useful information! And, when I return, I will be staying much longer than just four days in Budapest! Promise! :)

Indeed, Hungary offers so much more than just Budapest, thank you for showing!
A few tips, from a local:
Szentendre, Visegrád and Gyor are great day trips - for the others, I would rather recommend staying overnight, if you don't want to spend half of your day traveling back and forth... Especially Vienna is larger than a few-hour visit, you want at least 2-3 days there.
Instead, I would head to destinations closer to Budapest, like the historical towns of Eger or Sopron; both have also pretty hills and famous wines.
Or Veszprém (City of Queens) + Lake Balaton
Or even closer: Székesfehérvár (City of King St. Stephen) + Lake Velence
In Szentendre, one not-to-miss sight is the huge open air museum Skanzen.
When in Visegrád, take a few kilometers further, to Esztergom. Don't forget to cross the bridge to Párkány (Šturovo), Slovakia, for a splendid view of the cathedral - and some tasty, filling food. Halušky, oh!!
And I agree, hiking is the best - or in the summer, you can take a boat on the Danube.
Jó utat!
