Although Budapest's center can by explored by foot, some part of the city can be reached more efficiently by public transportation.
Budapest has a fairly extensive and efficient public transportation system, that is also cheaper than in most Western European cities.
I discuss your options to buy tickets and travel cards.
I discuss the metro system, trams, bus services, trolley lines, the suburban railway, Danube boats and also special vehicles (cogwheel, funicular, chairlift and the children's railway). Finally, I mention some further options, such as the public city bikes, car sharing and rentable scooters. Taxis are of course available but unfortunately Uber is not.
---ABOUT ME-----------
I am proud local Hungarian living in Budapest.
I was born and have lived in this beautiful city, Budapest for decades. I am in love with it - and not because I haven’t seen anything else. I am a seasoned traveller and I have also spent many years living abroad. However, my heart (and wive, and jobs and goulash soup and lángos) have pulled me back to my birth town. I love this city and know it inside out.

I live and love Budapest, I want to share my tips with you.
