Local transportation

Debrecen
We recommend you to take bus no. 10 which starts from the front of the railway station, and you should get off at the station "Egyetem". We have only one tram line in Debrecen, a very convenient one, connecting the railway station, Civis Grand Hotel Aranybika, Hotel Termál and the University. Unfortunately, now there is a reconstruction of the line, thus from the front of the railway station a tram substitute bus (bus no. 1) is going to the Dósa nádor square. There you should change to the tram, but the tram station is about 200 meters from the bus station.
The building of the Debrecen Regional Committee of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences is about 10 minutes walking from the Main Building of the University. It can be reached from the railway station or the center of the town by bus number 31.
The tram/bus tickets (to be punched after entering the vehicle) are valid only for one journey. It can be pre-purchased (100 HUF) or bought in the tram or in the bus (both costs 120 HUF) (small change is needed).
It is also possible to take a taxi at the railway station. It costs at most 2000 HUF to the hotel or to the university.

Budapest
From Budapest Ferihegy Airport the most convenient is to take the Airport Minibus, this is 1500 Hungarian Forints/person to any address in Budapest (including e.g. the railway stations). You may order this minibus already in the transit while waiting for your luggage.
Another possibility is to take Airport Taxi, right at the entrance of the airport building. This costs 4000-5500 forints/cab (it is the same for 1, 2, 3 or 4 persons, with or without luggage), depending only on the district where you want to go, you may see this at the map at the taxi station (Nyugati railway station is in district VI, Keleti railway station is in district VII). It is strongly suggested to confirm the price in advance.
In general, you have to be very careful with taxis in Budapest, the prices vary in a very wide range, and foreigners are sometimes cheated. The best is to call a taxi by telephone at a large company, such as Fõtaxi 222-2222 or Citytaxi 211-1111.
The public transport is very convenient in Budapest, you have to pre-purchase your tickets. You may buy these one by one, or a carnet of 10 or 20 tickets, or a 1 or 3-day pass, or a 2 or 3-days Budapest pass which gives you free entrance to all museums and a large discount for many other programs.
If you want to use public transport between Nyugati and Keleti railway stations, then the best is to take the two metros (changing trains at "Deák Ferenc tér").
