ClimateHungary has a typical European continental climate with warm, dry and long summers and fairly cold and humid winters.
TransportThe public transport is efficient albeit dated. Bus and train services criss-cross the country. Budapest’s metro is supplemented by standard buses, trolley buses and taxis.
Best time to travelThe shoulder months are mid-April to June (late spring) and September to mid-November (early autumn). Spring is beautiful, although it can be fairly wet in May and early June. Autumn is particularly special in the hills (e.g. Bükk and Mátra); festivals mark the szüret (grape harvest).
What to wearCasual covers it. Anything is acceptable wear here.
