Has anyone been to Hungary recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Apps or platforms to use
I was there a while back and had a good time. Wondering if things have changed.
Planning to go back next month.
Cheers

Been there 5 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The value for money is what keeps me coming back.

Word of caution — be careful with street touts. Other than that, great destination.

Also recommend downloading Grab before you go. Essential.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

First time was a learning experience. Second time was so much more efficient. Experience makes all the difference.
