Getting TO/AROUND: There is an option to get ride the tram , that have more than 30 lines around the city. The trams have yellow color and you must buy and ticket before going to the tram.
btw - there are two tram lines , 4 and 6 , that are very busy and considered two of the busiest tram lines in Europe.
Although slower than the metro , there is a great option to see the city. On my tourist trap i wrote about a great alternative to see the city and this is Tram number 2 (you can see it on the picture) which offer you a great sightseeing tour in 200 forint instead of 3000 forint - you will see gellert hill , the parliament , the danube , chain bridge , market hall and many more.

Getting TO/AROUND: Although bus is not the best option to travel around the city (because it can stuck in traffic jams) sometimes it is a good option when there is no tram or metro to your destination.
Bus with red number is fast bus and if you will see E it is even faster bus between two stations without stops.
