Bubi Budapest
Bikes all around the city
Wherever you walk in Budapest, there are Bubi bike stations everywhere! Isn't it wonderful?!
Anyone can rent a bike pretty much anywhere and anytime for only a little money. The distances in Budapest are not to be underestimated, and since I’m not a fan of cars or public transportation, I find it amazing that newly prepared Bubi bikes are all around the city, waiting to be taken for a ride. Their vivid green colour makes them easy to recognize.
The concept is simple: similar to many other cities' city bikes, first, you download the app, register, and hop on the bike. When you had enough, take it to a nearby Bubi spot from your destination. Cycling is a good way to avoid traffic jams in the inner city, and it saves time and money while getting to places very quickly. If, for instance, you buy a monthly ticket for less than 3 Euros, you can use the bike for an entire month. On each occasion, you need to put it back to any station within half an hour — after 30 minutes of continuous use, slight additional costs are incurred.
On sunny days, it's sometimes tricky to find bikes if you don’t check in advance.
