It's a place safe but the vibe of the city is strange and the fine for don't have the ticket train is expensive so better get one before you get on. Also the disco there are so good because all the discos have diferent floors with different music.

We come to Budapest every year to visit family ☀️☀️☀️ This city is wonderful, there are many activities to partake in and museums to visit 🖼 The cultural history is very present as well, especially during the "mesterségek ünnepe", where you can witness handcrafted exhibitions of Hungary’s identity 💗 I absolutely adore the architecture that is fun, colourful and elegant 🍒 Although vegan 🌱 and vegetarian food aren’t really staples in Hungarian cuisine, Budapest is a place where you can be...

Very pretty city. Even tho i was there with my bf i would feel safe also alone. Strudels are really delicious here 😋. Everything is near and night life is living indeed but finding free restaurant for dinner is a challenge😵💫

I really enjoyed this trip to Hungary it was very nice. I was with my family. We stayed in different places in Hungary for 4 nights and 5 days. It was very spontaneous, the only things we had booked were accommodations and a cruise

Blaha is bit dangerous as it’s filled with homeless people. Be careful around there. Overall Budapest is very safe place. Small villages are also safe and beautiful. I have been living here for one year I didn’t have any problems yet, related to the safety

Pecs is really safe . Its a small city and its usually safe bc the immigrants are mostly students. Cultural wise Hungarian people are living with their families and they dont mind foreigners. If you are travelling alone, i geniuenly recommed

You can walk freely during the day, men aren't even whistling or saying/shouting anything to you. At night I think it's mostly safe, be cautious. Near the center is safer, but I recommend taking Taxi, Uber or a drive if you are going in the outer city districts.

I lived in Pécs for three years, and I felt safe in general. I would probably not walk alone as a woman in the middle of the night, but it’s like that for me everywhere. The only thing worth mentioning is that someone stole my scooter on my second to last day there😭 so lock your scooters/bicycles.
