Getting There

• Car

  If you're traveling by car from any location in Transdanubia, you will want to take the M1 or M7 highways heading towards Budapest. Depending on your starting point, you may need to merge onto the M0 ring road to connect to the M1 or M7. Once you reach Budapest, follow signs for the city center. Use the GPS coordinates 47.4923206, 19.0501689 to guide you to Jane Haining rkp. 10, where Duna Cruises is located. Keep in mind that parking in the city can be limited and may incur additional costs.

• Public Transportation - Train

  To reach Duna Cruises via public transportation, take a train from any major station in Transdanubia (for example, Székesfehérvár or Veszprém) to Budapest Nyugati Railway Station. Trains are frequent and typically take about 1 to 1.5 hours. Once you arrive at Nyugati Station, you can either walk, which takes approximately 30 minutes, or take tram number 4 or 6 from Nyugati to the Kossuth Lajos tér stop. From there, it’s a short walk to Jane Haining rkp. 10.

Arrive at Budapest's Népliget bus station, from which you can take metro line 3 (the blue line) to Deák Ferenc tér and transfer to metro line 2 (the red line) towards Déli pályaudvar, getting off at Kossuth Lajos tér. From there, it's a brief walk to Jane Haining rkp. 10.
