- We Love BudapestApril 23, 2015The two cars (Margit and Gellért) are connected like counterbalancing pendulums: while one car runs uphill, the other goes downhill. It is a highly popular attraction, so be prepared for queues. Read more

Reyhan SafarnegaarAugust 25, 2017Its worth a one-time experience. You can use the lift near the cave hospital to come down the hill for free!!
- Fluying ✅September 20, 2016Built originally in 1870, destroyed during WW2, and re built in 1986. Today, being touristy and pricey, is a great 90 seconds connection between Chain bridge and the top of Castle Hill.Upvoted Jan 24
- Fluying ✅September 20, 2016The Turul is a mythological bird of prey, who led the Magyar migrations from Central Asia in the ninth century. This bird then indicated that this area was to be the permanent home of the Magyar.
Victoria S ⚅October 15, 2015The fastest way to go to Buda Castle.Its better to book tickets with return because they have discount.It's a expensive but its an old train which offers spectacular view.It's crowded the weekends!
Jeanette MaylandApril 8, 2023Budapest’s biggest tourist scam: 4,000 HUF per person, it’s 1 minute and only the front cart provides the beautiful view. Take the stairs!
JenniferSeptember 18, 2010Short on cash? Take the #16 bus instead. It will take you to the castle. You can see the bus stop from the line for the funicular. Look to your right while standing in line! It's across the street!
Christoffer Falck-JohansenMay 23, 2019Fun little thing that you have to try. Gives a good view of the city.
- We Love BudapestApril 11, 2013The Sikló is an important tourist destination. It used to be a lot faster but it was slowed down on public request. There were plans to replace it by escalators. Fortunately it never happened.
Mike WhitcombeSeptember 5, 2014Somewhat expensive, but good fun. Single HUF 1.100, return HUF 1.700. http://www.bkk.hu/apps/menetrend/pdf/E098/20140101/b.pdf
Mikael Andersson StåhlMarch 30, 2015Try to take the part of the wagon closest to the river (bottom part). Better view- JenniferSeptember 18, 2010The bus stop is called Clark Adam. You can see it from the Funicular line. Take bus 16 or 16A to get to the castle quick and cheap!
Alexander MyskinSeptember 14, 2014Not worth queueing and your forints. Same is the view from the top.
oixxoJanuary 8, 2015Наверх лучше пешком, а вниз на фуникулере - очередь меньше! 🚠 Better by foot uphill and use the funicular to go down - the queue is shorter!
Nic D.September 11, 2018Auch wenn man 20 Minuten wartet: der stilvollste Weg nach Buda. Schon während der Fahrt eine sagenhafte Aussicht.
Molotov CupcakeJune 18, 2022Wurde 1870 eröffnet und ist die zweitälteste der Welt. Seit 1987 Welterbe. Sieht wunderschön nostalgisch aus.- Molotov CupcakeJune 18, 2022Die 2 Waggons sind nach der Margareteninsel (Margit) u dem Gellértberg (Gellért) benannt und können jeweils 24 Personen transportieren. Daher kanns in der Tourismus-Saison zu langen Wartezeiten kommen
AycanMarch 15, 2017Yukarı yürümek istemezseniz bu finiküleri kullanarak Buda kalesine ulaşabilirsiniz
Maria BeliakovaSeptember 29, 2015Билет на подъем 1200 ft, туда-обратно - 1800 ft, до обеда внушительные очереди.
Çağkan YükselFebruary 18, 2017Yukari cikmanin en kolay yolu ama onunde uzun bir sira olabiliyor. Binince oturmaya calismayin cunku 4 yolcu oturmali 3 yolcu ayakta aliyorlar. Sonra onunuzde kazik gibi dikilen insanlar olmasin :)
Vicente MartinezAugust 23, 2017Larga cola para un trayecto tan corto. Pero hay que subir al Castillo en el funicular. Es imprescindible.
Arpad JankovicsMarch 15, 20151200-ért egy 40 másodperces zötykölődés, amely alatt alig látsz valamit ha nem az első kabinba szállsz be. Ráadásul a pénztáros a nemzeti ünnepen is angolul szólít meg.
MJW147September 5, 2022Binmek zorunlu değil, kısa ve keyifli bir deneyim oluyor. Yürüyerek de çıkılabilir.
Natalia PekkerJanuary 11, 2017Не очень удобные вагончики, но выглядят прикольно (стилизованы под старину). Поездка не оправдывает стоимостью билета, но вид на город открывается неплохой.
Onur Emre📍July 14, 2019Binmenin çok da gereği yok , ama kötü de değil , binmeden de yukarı çıkılabilir.
