Plan Your Visit to Budapest

Your Budapest Card becomes valid from the moment you first use it and covers consecutive calendar days. The card works by simply presenting it at transport barriers, museum entrances and participating venues. No separate ticket purchases or advance bookings required.

Choose your duration based on your stay length. A 48 or 72-hour card suits most visitors, giving you time to explore both Buda and Pest sides of the city. The walking tours help you get oriented on your first day, while the transport coverage lets you reach attractions like the Széchenyi Thermal Baths and the Parliament Building without buying individual tickets.

Start early to maximise value, particularly if you're planning to visit multiple museums and use public transport frequently. The card pays for itself quickly when you combine museum visits with unlimited transport access throughout your stay.
