Hello - I will be visiting Budapest in a few months. What is the best way to get from the airport to a hotel downtown ? I heard taxi's can be very expensive.

Right now you have two options:
- AirportShuttle is a minivan service, they take 5-6 people at a time and if you travel alone, probably it's a little cheaper than taxi.
-Taxi: it can be expensive IF you let the driver cheat on you. But you don't have to! Here is what you should do:
- Look for the printed chart with the prices in the cab. You'll see that there is a FLAT RATE (3500-4500huf?) from the airport to downtown. Don't let him to use the meter, ask for the fix price.
- In general: if you are worried, tell the driver that you need a receipt! They have to give it to you if you ask for it! (the driver's contact info with the amount is on it, so they won't charge you extra).
but you can ask someone at the info desk at the airport. They'll help you! As there were many problems with the taxis recently, the authorities are keeping eye on them. So don't worry.
