私人汽车接送从 Budapest 到 Zagreb

Since Zagreb isn't as popular as other coastal towns such as Spilt or Dubrovnik, many people overlook this journey bursting with potential. We created the ultimate Budapest to Zagreb guide to ensure you don't make the same mistake. Buckle up because we're telling you how far, the best mode of transportation, and everything else you need to embark on this driving voyage!

The beginning of Zagreb

The city of Zagreb dates back to the 1st century AD. It was founded by King Ladislau when he built a diocese after returning from his battle with the Kingdom of Croatia. As time moved on, a permanent settlement emerged. It didn't grow until the Romans conquered the area and established the town of Andautonia near present-day Ščitarjevo.

The growth of Zagreb

During the medieval period, Zagreb saw much financial wealth. The settlements of Gradec and Kaptol developed on opposite hills. Gradec was a secular town, while Kaptol was the ecclesiastical center with its cathedral and bishop's residence.

For centuries, Zagreb remained under the control of the Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman empires. However, in the 1800s, the city experienced significant urban growth as it became the capital of the Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia.

Independent and modern Zagreb

After witnessing the occupation by Nazi Germany and its addition to Yugoslavia following the war, Zagreb was badly damaged and underdeveloped. In 1990, Yugoslavia collapsed, and Zagreb was declared the Croatian headquarters.

Fortunately, Zagreb is a 21st-century city with reminders of its past dotted along its streets. In 2013, the nation officially joined the EU, and the cash injection has revived this exciting city that matches the vibrant lanes throughout.

Opt for the scenic route

The quickest route from Budapest to Zagreb is along the M7 and E65. However, there are countless hidden gems along its scenic routes. With Daytrip's private door-to-door service, you can enrich your travel day by stopping at the city of Varazdin, Helikon Castle, or Tapolca Lake Cave.

Learn about the food scene

Croatian cuisine doesn't get as much recognition as Mexican or Italian. However, its hearty dishes are jam-packed with delicious flavors. Ask your Daytrip driver for the best local eats in Zagreb, or to stop along the way and refuel with a mouthwatering authentic meal!

Budapest to Zagreb by train

The interrail service from Budapest to Zagreb makes the train the most popular way to travel from one city to the next. There are two companies that operate the route: Mav-Start and HZPP. Both offer different costs, comforts, and amenities.

• First train: 5:59 a.m.
• Last train: 7:10 p.m.
• Number of direct daily trains: 7
• Lowest ticket cost: €19
• Average ticket cost: €45

Taking the train has a few drawbacks though, like having to carry your luggage around busy stations. And you won't be able to stop for sightseeing.

Budapest to Zagreb by bus or coach

A bus or coach is a cheap but slower option for traveling from Budapest to Zagreb. A one-way ticket starts at only €19.99 but it takes between 5 and 6 hours, depending on traffic.

FlixBus, Nomago, Nomago d.o.o., Nemylostyvyi O.V., BUSSONE, and BlaBlaCar all offer a service on this route. You can purchase tickets at Budapest Nepliget Bus Station, but for the lowest price, you should book online.

Most budget buses arrive at Autobusni Kolodvor Zagreb, which is around a 10-15 minute drive from the old town. So be sure you have a plan in place on how to leave the bus station.

Daytrip private car service from Budapest to Zagreb

A private car ride with Daytrip is the fastest, most convenient, and most comfortable way to get from Budapest to Zagreb. Your English-speaking driver will pick you up in Budapest, bring you safely through the heart of Eastern Europe's stunning landscape, and get you to your accommodation in Zagreb in a speedy 3.5 hours.

You don't have to worry about handling luggage, checking a timetable, or reaching the departure point. Your professional driver will manage any bags and greet you with a smile.

But Daytrip isn't just a way to get from A to B. It's an adventure. You have several sightseeing stops you can make, like exploring Székesfehérvár, Hungary's medieval capital, or unwinding in the steamy waters at the Thermal Lake of Heviz.

Eat and drink your way through Tkalčića Street

For centuries, Tkalčića Street divided the two towns of Gradec and Kaptol. What's more interesting is that it wasn't a street, but a river! The contaminated waters that made their way to nearby shops caused the city to divert its waterway underground.

Today, the street is the beating heart of Zagreb. You can find everything here, from Irish pubs to cozy cafes and restaurants to souvenir stores!

Venture through the Upper Town

This picturesque neighborhood is known for its medieval architecture, narrow alleyways, and charming squares. Begin at St. Mark's Square, home to the iconic St. Mark's Church, with its colorful tiled roof portraying the coat of arms of Zagreb and Croatia.

From there, wander through the cobblestone lanes and discover hidden gems like the Lotrščak Tower, which offers panoramic city views. Don't forget the Stone Gate, a shrine adorned with religious artifacts.

Relax in Maksimir Park

Maksimir Park is the city's oldest and most picturesque green space. The area is only 1.5 miles from downtown Zagreb. But it feels like a different planet. Leafy walkways, glimmering lakes, and local wildlife spread across 780 acres of land.

On a warm summer day, you can pick up some fresh products from Market Dolac and enjoy a picnic under the sun's rays. In the winter, head to one of the cafes for a hot chocolate or take a leaf from the locals' books and sled down the snowy slopes!

Budapest to Zagreb is one of the most popular interrail routes. Summer is the high season when most people visit, and temperatures can soar over 90° Fahrenheit. Public transport is often crowded, and some cheap options don't offer air conditioning.

Spring is the best time to travel to Zagreb and Croatia as a whole. This period from March to May sees a pleasant average temperature of 74° Fahrenheit, but the later you come, the higher it will be.

One final bonus is that hotels always offer an attractive price to attract customers. The more money you save, the more you can put towards the lively food and drinking scene!
