Travel firm cashes in on disaster
A Hungarian travel agency is trying to cash in on flooding in Budapest by offering "disaster holidays".
Travel agency Popeye has erected maps and signs in Hungarian and English directing holidaymakers to the best flood sites.
They are also offering guided tours to take groups around Budapest's "disaster zones".
A spokesman for the company said: "We're not sure how much longer we can offer these tours for, as the water will go down soon, but so far it's been a great success.
"It doesn't matter which part of the world you come from, people always love disaster."
Parts of Budapest flooded after the River Danube reached its highest level for 120 years.
