Reaching Hungary (Budapest)

Flying is the easiest and quickest way to reach Hungary from all over the world. Most major airline carriers fly directly to the Ferenc Liszt International Airport serving the Hungarian capital city of Budapest.

It is also possible to travel to Hungary by international train services.

From Budapest to Pécs

By airport shuttle 

The most convenient way to reach Pécs from the Airport is through airport shuttle services from the Ferenc Liszt International Airport in Budapest to Pécs (door-to-door). Please find below the main companies that offer this service and arrange with them in advance:

By train

Another option for travelling from Budapest to Pécs is by train. Ask the taxi or the Airport Minibus driver to take you to the Keleti Pályaudvar (Eastern Railway station in Hungarian). From there you can travel to Pécs by an InterCity (IC) train (Schedule). You are advised to take an IC instead of the regular train because IC's are much faster and more comfortable than regular trains.

By car

Foreigners travelling to Hungary by car are required to hold a valid international driving licence. Car registration and insurance papers are also compulsory. Driving is on the right-hand side and the seatbelt is compulsory. The speed limit within residential areas is 50 km/h, 90 km/h for secondary roads, 110 km/h for highways and 130 km/h for motorways.

In Hungary, motorways, expressways, and specific sections of national roads require a toll, which is paid by purchasing a digital e-vignette at i-vignette.com/en-gb/countries/hungary.
