Hungary Travel Blog
Travel guides, itineraries, abandoned places, street art and off-the-beaten-path places in HungaryHello and welcome to our Hungary travel blog. You will find all our Hungary blog posts in this section of our website.
Maybe you found our Hungary travel blog because you are considering a visit to Central Europe, or perhaps you are partway through planning a trip to Hungary. Whatever the reason, we hope we can provide some useful resources and travel tips for Hungary.

Our Hungary blog posts are generally aimed at independent travellers and backpackers like us and have a strong focus on travelling around using public transport, staying in budget accommodation and exploring off-the-beaten-path and lesser-visited places.
