About Travel to Budapest
Budapest is served by Ferenc Liszt Airport and by train from Vienna, Prague, and other European cities. Metro, trams, and buses cover the city; the centre is also very walkable. Spring and autumn offer comfortable weather; summer can be hot. Book Parliament tours, thermal baths, and popular ruin bars and restaurants in advance. Split time between Buda (hills, castle) and Pest (riverfront, nightlife). Try the baths early to avoid crowds, and allow time for markets, viewpoints, and river cruises.
