Rules in force · 6Castle Hill has cobbles, stairs and a steep approach
- Hungary ↗Hungary is in the EU and the Schengen area: check entry rules, the EU Entry/Exit System and any travel authorisation requirement for your passport on official sources.
- Hungary ↗The currency is the Hungarian forint (HUF), not the euro: decline dynamic currency conversion at cards and ATMs.
- Hungary ↗Motorways need an electronic vignette (e-matrica) bought before you drive on them.
- Budapest and the Danube Bend ↗If you drive out of town on a motorway, buy the electronic vignette (e-matrica) first.
- Budapest ↗Castle Hill has cobbles, stairs and a steep approach: large suitcases go from the car to the door, never on a walk.
- Budapest ↗Use a licensed taxi with a posted tariff, or a ride-hailing app; avoid drivers who approach you at the airport or stations.
