Tram 2 is a public tram line in Budapest that runs along the Pest side of the Danube River. The route stretches between Közvágóhíd in the south and Jászai Mari tér in the north. Along its journey, the tram offers unobstructed views of the Buda Castle, Parliament Building, and the stunning bridges that connect the twin cities of Buda and Pest. Sit on the right side heading north (from Közvágóhíd) or the left side heading south (from Jászai Mari tér) for the best views of the river and landmarks.
Purchase a single ticket from a ticket machine, tram stop, or metro station. Validate your ticket using the orange machines onboard. Alternatively, consider a 24-hour travel card or a Budapest Card for unlimited travel on public transport. It offers the same breathtaking views as expensive river cruises, but for a fraction of the cost. It's a budget-friendly way to enjoy the city.
