Budapest Transportation: 557 reviews and 581 photos

 
 

Budapest has an excellent and affordable public transportation. Buses, trams, trolley buses and subways generally operate from 4:30 a.m to
11:00 p.m. Tickets are purchased prior to boarding at tobacco shops, subway stations, hotels or street vendors. Passengers must validate their tickets in a ticket puncher and present them, upon request, to an inspector. Please note, tickets are checked frequently on all lines.

A single ticket is not reusable and no transfers are allowed (a separate validated ticket is required when changing metro lines). Look for the validation on buses, trains and trolleys; on metro look for the machine upon entering the metro the station. One-day, three-day, weekly and monthly passes are available at the ticket counters in Budapest.
