    • Dear Rostislav,

      thank you for your comment.

      The tour bus traffic was restricted (due to reconstruction works) only between June 1 and October 31, 2016.

      The restriction does not apply now.

      I hope I could be of help.

    • I will visit Castle hill on 12 October 2023 with a coach of 40 seats. Is it possible to drop off near by the church? Do I need to register for the bus to go up on the castle hill? If yes, where I can register? Please reply via my email.

      Best regards,

      Kritsada

  2. Dear sir, we will visit Buda castle on Thursday 5th December at about 10 o´clock. Bus for 50 pax. Do we need to have registration for drop off? Where exactly is the drop off place – is it possible near Palota street where the public toilets are? Where can bus park after that? Thank you very much for your answer. Martina

    • Dear Martina,
      Thank you for your comment.
      We have contacted you via email about the 2024 bus parking options and essential information. Indeed, in the last few years parking / drop off and pick up with a tourist bus in Buda Castle Royal Palace has changed.
