Getting to Balatonalmádi – Your Main Options
By Train (Best for Budget and Ease)
Departure Stations: Budapest-Déli or Kelenföld (MÁV).
Frequency: Trains run about every hour.
Duration: 1.5–2 hours.
Tickets: Available online via the Hungarian Railways website or at station ticket machines/counters.
By Private Transfer (Most Comfortable and Convenient)
Providers: Companies such as Bokros Emil, Balaton Transzfer, or Jocibusz offer pre-booked taxis, minibuses, or private cars from Budapest or the airport.
Benefits: Door-to-door service, fixed pricing, no language barriers, and flight monitoring.
By Bus
Buses are available, but often require transfers (e.g., via Veszprém) and tend to be slower than the direct train.
By Car
Renting a car is another flexible option, with a driving time of roughly 1–1.5 hours from Budapest.
