hey all
so im a class rep for a group of about 400 people and were heading to budapest. Weve booked a nice party hostel, retox, and theyre offering us some planned nights out for a few extra fees. currently a bit worried about how much theyre charging and if its a fair price for the city.

so theres an All you can drink night for 5000 huf.

a jager train night with free entry but 4000 huf for five jager bombs

a boat trip for 6500 huf include the ride, a bottle of champagne and club entry.

are these prices reasonable?
if not any advice on where to go.
even some general attractions that we missed.
any good suggestions welcome

Also a clear breakdown of the price of drink in some of the pubs, clubs, bath parties. and the price of entry youd expect.

So - all of your activities are drinking as much as possible? Why go to Budapest instead of just drinking at home?

5000 Huf is 16 Euro. Based on that, I don't think you're getting ripped off.


This is why we can't have nice things. Have fun perpetuating the stereotype.

I thought the '80+' bit was referring to an old lady making a last trip to her ancestral homeland...

I'm planning to go to Budapest as well. Please let me know when your group will be there so I can be sure not to be there at the same time.

I don't know what time of year you are going but if the weather is nice I would highly recommend taking the night cruise on the river. the city is beautiful lit up at night. Again, weather permitting there is an area called Margaret Island which we enjoyed walking around the better part of a day. Hunt out a bathhouse and experience a traditional Hungarian bath as well. The food in Budapest was just okay but the people I found were very friendly and I loved the city.
