Suprisingly Budapest offers a very vibrant nightlife, where somehow I found myself winding up in a pub crawl with random strangers, so if that's your vibe, would totally recommend. Apart from that, it is a very beautiful city with efficient public transport and very safe too (I walked many times at night without a worry in the world). The stay there was also very cheap, food is reasonably priced, but not always cheap.

Posted: July 16, 2025Experienced: February, 2025I felt really safe in tha capital of hangary. I travelled with my family so it was a little different experience than travelling alone but it was very nice, people were helpful and open to give directions
Posted: July 10, 2025I had really good time in Budapest. The city transforms completely after sunset. Sitting at liberty bridge was the highlight of my trip. I did a boat party, parliament lights up at night and the views are amazing. I recommend a boat ride a nighttime to enjoy the views. The city is safe for solo travel. The food options are plenty & can fit in your budget well.

I really like Budapest! I visited there for the first time in January this year. I spent only one day there and that's why I want to go back. If you happen to be in Budapest, be sure to take a boat ride during sunset or later. I chose sunset and I don't regret it one bit! I didn't feel any danger there. Plus I can't call Budapest expensive. It's definitely cheaper than Berlin or Copenhagen.

I went to Budapest with a group of friends for an Erasmus+, and we loved it. The hostel was around the centre and it was very inexpensive and very cute. The food was good, I loved the soups from Hungary and the sweets. Overall, a beautiful experience since the own city is also very pretty. Would love to repeat this trip.

Just a nice city with a good transportation system, tasty food, and tons of tourists during high season. Also, you can really feel the atmosphere of an old city mixed with modern vibes. Prices aren’t that high — especially if you cook for yourself.
Posted: July 26, 2025I dont think its too unsafe i just dont like man when they are staring or making talks about my looks. They arw usually not saying anything but its still uncomfortable. I guess its like this in every country, but i had bad experienced bc of somebody was following me or etc
