If you’re landing at Budapest Airport and heading to Pest, you’re probably wondering: How much does a taxi from Budapest airport to Pest cost? Good question but there’s a better one:

Why not skip the meter altogether?

Taxi Costs vs Fixed Price Transfers

A local taxi from the airport to Pest can cost anywhere between 30 and 45 EUR, depending on traffic, time of day, and the driver. Some use meters, others offer flat rates, and sometimes you’ll be met with “airport surcharges” you weren’t expecting.
