  Public transport in Budapest

The trams, subways and city buses operate with pre-purchased tickets. One ticket costs 290 HUF, at each transfer you have to validate a new ticket. You can buy tickets at ticket offices which usually can be found at the entrances of subway stations. Tickets must be validated upon boarding a tram or bus or upon entering the subway station. There are other types of tickets: daily, weekly. Depending on your plans, they may be a good deal. You can read about the details here.

In Hungary the local currency is the Hungarian Forint (HUF). The present exchange rate for one US dollar is about 215 Forints, one Yen is about 2.25 Forints. Major credit cards are accepted at most shops.
