Editorial snapshot
Fares to Budapest reward early planners but can also surprise last-minute bookers in low season. The city suits solo travellers, couples, and cultural obsessives equally well. It is affordable by European capital standards, architecturally stunning, and just enough off the main tourist trail to feel like a discovery rather than a checkbox.
