What you'll see
Luckily enough, Budapest and Pécs are so close to each other that the entire trip can be covered in a couple of hours. However, if you don’t want to risk a train ride and travelling in a crowded bus is not an option, our Pécs - Budapest Transfer is just the thing you’re looking for.
Your driver will pick you up at the requested location, brief you about the journey, put your luggage into the car (there’s plenty of room for it) and drive you to your destination. It’s really that simple. Since it’s a 2 hour-ride, you might also want to stop for a short break but that’s perfectly okay with us. Just let your driver know and he’ll be happy to take you to the nearest gas station where you can freshen up.
