Your flight has landed. You’ve made it through the airport. And now, as you settle into your private transfer from Budapest Airport to your hotel, something unexpected happens: your driver hands you a mini Hungarian phrase guide.

Welcome to “More Than a Transfer”, where the journey doesn’t just take you across the city it brings you closer to it.

Why Hungarian?

Hungarian isn’t just a language it’s part puzzle, part poetry. It’s unlike anything most guests have heard before. That’s exactly why it’s so fun to play with during the ride.

We start with a smile: “mosoly”. Then come the classics: “köszönöm” (thank you), “egészségedre” (cheers), and the always popular “szia” (hi/bye).

Some guests try writing them down. Others record them. Some repeat them with pride; others just laugh and that’s the point.

Learning Through Laughter

No pressure. No grammar rules. Just fun little moments where strangers become honorary locals if only for a few syllables.

Whether you’re in town for three days or three weeks, you’ll leave the car knowing how to order a coffee, greet your host, or simply charm your waiter.

And let’s be honest there’s no better icebreaker than trying to say “Lánchíd” without panicking.

A Memory, Not Just a Ride

For many guests, this mini lesson becomes one of the most talked about moments of their arrival day. It’s light, it’s local, and it makes the transfer feel less like a taxi ride and more like a welcome ritual.

Because that’s what we do at Welcome to Budapest: we don’t just drive you across the city we introduce you to it.
