Hungary has cold winters and warm summers. We went in March and it was mostly jumper weather. If you like relaxing in spas then don't forget swimming costume and flip-flops!
Bring a plug adapter (two pins), take lots of travellers cheques and try and buy a few phone cards when you see them. Whenever we needed to use a phone to book accommodation, or just phone home, we took a good few hours searching for a public phone card because most of them do not take coins. Leave a Comment

On the photo you can see the Houses of Parliament...
Hungary has a rather dry continental climate, so if you visit in the summer, you'll need very light clothes, mostly you'll have warm and sunny days. In the winter however you better take very warm clothes, often there is snow and obviously freezing cold:-) Leave a Comment

You don't need to take too many cloths with, coz in Hungary you have a good offer of cheap but also expensive cloths and shoes.
Normaly you can find anything you need, except of those medicaments for the special treatments.
all you need is available Leave a Comment

I did a backpacking travel, so for me it was important to take useful things with me that were not too heavy or big to take.My personal advice, take with you a good rucksack and only a suitcase.
Two pair of good and comfortable shoes and light clothes for summer and the first period of fall,very warm for winter and the first months of spring.
In Hungary you won't need medical kit,because there are not medical problems,you can find many chemist shops and the medicines sold are the same that in the rest of the Europe.Of course you have to take with you soap,shampoo and personal hygienic products.
You will have no problems with your cameras and photo equipments in Hungary, you can find everywhere shops where you can buy new films or re-charge your camera, even because in Hungary the industry of films and optical products is very important.
It's better if you take your swimsuit costume and everithing is good for an holiday on the sea if you are going to the lake Balaton, the Hungarian sea every year full of people from Hungary and all the central Europe (and if you can,go there,you can find good food,wines and some of the most beautiful landscapes in Hungary).
Last advice: if you take your heart with you, you will probably not be able to take him back home!!! be careful!!! Leave a Comment

Depending on how much clothes you're planning to take with you ,you should take an bag in which you can put all of your things and still have some empty space...
Belive me,this is an very useful tip...
Budapest is pretty cold,and when the wind starts to blow in the winter-it's freezing!
But,the clothes and shoes you should with you are usual-warm,comfortable and not too heavy.
Make sure you don't forget to bring your gloves etc. if you're travelling there in winter! Leave a Comment

A normal bag/suitcase will do you fine - although you might not want one which is too big if you have to travel to your hotel by tram.
Hungary gets VERY hot during the summer months so make sure you have nice light clothing, just make sure you also bring some that is waterproof as during this hoy weather it can be prone to some incredible Thunder Storms.
You can pretty much buy everything you need over there.
There are a lot of 1 hour photo developing shops which offer good value - and in a lot of cases give you a free film for each one you get developed.
Light and waterproof - you can't really go wrong.
Bring your own cutlery that means you can make use of a lot of the cheap little supermarkets. Buying your own food is fun - and then you can play the fun little game called 'Guess what food this is' :-)

When travelling by bicycle you must have adequate clothing for hot, cold, dry and wet weather. So it will always be a dilemma, which clothes to put in your suitcase and which not.
We had special underwear, shirts, pants, etc… very light and offering a good protection against cold and wind. It can be washed out easy and dried quickly. Even when it rains, short pants and sandals are better than trousers. The rest is pure ballast. In spite of all our experience in this particular matter, our luggage was still too heavy.
