Best time to Visit Hungary

Summer

You can visit Hungary at any time of the year. However, summer is considered the best time to make the most of it. The temperature improves from June to August, and the crowds swell. This time of the year is ideal for sightseeing and outdoor activities. However, summer is the peak season, and you may encounter higher crowds and accommodation rates.

Spring

In spring, the weather is more pleasant in Hungary, and the crowds of tourists are less than in summer. The weather can be especially nice in April and May, with temperatures averaging 15°C during the day and 4°C at night. Cherry blossoms and wildflowers bloom throughout the country in spring, which is also suitable for outdoor activities like biking.

Hungary Safety and Precautionary Measures to be Undertaken

Travelling in Hungary is generally safe, but tourists can be targets of petty crimes like bag snatching and pick-pocketing. These crimes are common in major cities like Budapest.
Street crime is more likely to happen in crowded places like markets, train stations and busy public transport. Stay alert at a place crowded with tourists.
Theft from parked vehicles is common, so do not leave valuables inside your car.
Always leave your car or bike in a secure location to minimise the risk of it being stolen.
Avoid going to dark and isolated areas at night, especially in unfamiliar neighbourhoods.
Validate your ticket when using public transport. Checks happen randomly, and steep fines can be imposed for unvalidated tickets.
To prevent being overcharged by cab drivers, always use licenced taxis whose company's logos and metres are visible.
Always check out the menu and price list before ordering food and drinks to avoid being overcharged at bars, restaurants and clubs.
Instead of trying to change money on the street, avail the services of official ATMs or banks.
