Budapest Airport

Please make sure to fly into Budapest Liszt Ferenc International Airport.

Prior to booking your flights, please look into any visa requirements for your county, and also make sure that your passports are valid, and do not expire anytime soon!

*After arriving to the airport, you may want to exchange some cash to HUF, as you may need it while exploring the city. We also recommend that you get a phone card with data to help you get around.

Feel free to take a taxi to your accommodation! They are safe to take, but make sure they run the meter.
