There is a lot of information about Budapest, but during the Kovid period everything changed, I will try to update a bit.

When I was buying tickets for the Euro 2020 match, I had a trip planned, but in 2020 there was a code and changed all the plans! As a result, there are only one ticket left to Budapest on June 27 for the 1/8 finals. My wife and I hesitated to go - not to go, we decided to go. Due to the obvious restrictions, the route was difficult. Hungary admits to the country only if you have a ticket for the match and a test made in 72 hours, you also need to provide a test made in 72 hours to get to the match. The match on June 27, ie the test had to be taken no earlier than June 25, so that it would affect both the entrance and the entrance to the stadium. It was possible to rent in Budapest, but once again to pay for the fact that you are healthy, sorry)

We left Sumy on June 23 by train, which is 1100 km from Zakarpattia.


We decided to stay in Mukachevo and take a test there. We had lunch in Mukachevo on June 24, checked into apartments and walked around the city with gastronomic preferences, bograch in Decent Gazda is something)

The next day I passed the tests at MedFamily, I was pleasantly surprised by the price of UAH 550, before that in May I clarified the cost and the possibility of passing - they said UAH 900!

The day was free and we rushed to Berehove, a distance of about 40 km. At first we wanted to get to the thermal springs, but the air temperature of 39 degrees in the shade did not provide for this, so we decided to walk around the city.

We got to the fair in honor of the Constitution Day of Ukraine, I wanted to buy everything and try, bright)

Tests, as expected, were negative, the result was obtained after 16, passed in 9 with pennies.

At night there was a transfer to Budapest from H2O - all is well, but no one can predict the crossing - 5 hours through the Chop-Zá hony crossing! According to the driver, football tickets are not a guarantee of entry, although I took out and received permission from the Hungarian police with a cadastral number of housing from the Hungarian Land Register or as they call it) By the way, the company that organized the transfer, very qualified advice about the necessary documents for crossing the border!

The road took about 3 hours and at 12 with pennies we were in Budapest.

At first we decided to get bracelets, because there was a lot of information on the Internet that the cafe is allowed only in the presence of a local passport or a negative test. No one asked if there was a bracelet!

Apartments booked through Airbnb - everything is great, downtown, price 25 euros per night)

Getting to know Budapest started from the street. Vaci, and then follow the routes outlined on the forum)

Useful information that the 2nd tram route is a tour of the Danube embankment)

Passed near the station, could not help but take a picture of the ball)

The next day was Mount Gellert. Royal Castle, Fisherman's Bastion, it was nice to watch and take photos without a lot of tourists!

Travel per day - that's enough to move around the city!


The city is beautiful, especially the architecture)

Many objects on restoration, as I understood the Hungarians, decided to update their attractions during the time of Kovid, while there are no tourists!

Prices in the cafe are available if you take the daily menu (lunch) in general on a budget.

It doesn't make sense to describe a football show - you have to go there! The Dutch are bright!

The next day we left home by H2O transfer, we had a train at 22:39 from Mukachevo, and at 17:45 we were still in Budapest. We have already calculated options for getting to Sumy, but 364 km were covered in 2:35 hours, 2nd border in 15 minutes! At the station at 21:30 everything is great, the company has a reputation for making it possible and impossible for customers and they have confirmed it!

June 29 were in Sumy)

A little trip during a pandemic is like a breath of fresh air)

П. C. We had a guy who needed to go to Hungary, so he bought the cheapest ticket for 30 euros and could stay in Budapest for 72 hours)
