Castle Bus

It is a dedicated, environmentally friendly electric bus service that provides a quick and comfortable connection between the city center and the Buda Castle District. Its purpose is to help visitors avoid queuing and congestion within the Castle area.

The services are frequent: a bus departs approximately every 10–15 minutes from the Castle District entrance and the downtown connection points.

The bus starts from downtown (near Deák Ferenc Square, for example) and stops at iconic points within the Buda Castle, including near the Buda Castle Palace, the Fisherman's Bastion, and the Matthias Church. A precise map is available on the product page.

A complete round trip, including travel between stops and brief waiting times, takes approximately 30–40 minutes.

Yes, a free audio guide is available on board the bus in 16 languages, which introduces the sights and history of the Castle District during the journey.

The ticket operates on a hop-on hop-off system specifically for this route. You can alight at any stop within the Castle District, explore the sights, and continue your journey with the next bus.

The electric drive is quiet and emissions-free, which contributes to the protection of the historic Castle District environment and ensures a more pleasant travel experience.
