Airport transfer Direct transfer from the airport to the hotel at a special rate will be arranged for the participants of the conference, who are asked to go to the Welcome Desk in the airport upon arrival for that reason. The normal price for the Minibus is HUF 2,990 (around EUR or USD 14.90) one way or HUF 4,990 return (EUR or USD 24.80). 1

2 The Airport Minibus is a door-to-door service, which means the driver announces the name of the hotel when the bus arrives there. There is no fixed bus schedule, so buses depart from the airport when they are full or there is no other person left. The usual waiting time is between 5 to 15 minutes. For details see Depending on the number of addresses to go to the bus needs 30 to 50 minutes to Helia Hotel. Taxi ( Taxi stands are located outside the Passenger Terminal Arrival area in both Ferihegy Terminals I - II. The regular price for a ride to Hotel Helia is around HUF 3,000 to 4,300 (which is EUR 14 to 20) and takes about 25 to 35 minutes. In case you need to call a taxi, phone or see below for more taxi numbers. 4. Hotel accommodation MMIKL has blocked sufficient rooms for participants at Hotel Helia, which is also the conference venue. The special conference rate is EUR 95 for a single room and EUR 110 for a double room, including breakfast. Please book your room through the conference website or confintea.hu/eng/confintea/index.php?page=accommodation-information and kindly write CONFINTEA in the cell under "Arrival Information" to indicate the special rate for conference participants. 5. Currency exchange Foreign currency can be changed at the airport and at Hotel Helia. Money can also be changed at any bank or change store in Hungary. Hungarian banks are open from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. For information on the exchange rate please see below (page 5). 6.

3 General Information about Hungary 1. Visa entry formalities Participants coming from Albania, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Georgia, Kazakhstan, TFYR Macedonia, Montenegro, Moldova, Russia, Serbia, Tajikistan, Turkey and Ukraine should have a valid entry visa (unless they travel with a diplomatic or service passport, except for Turkey, from where everyone needs an entry visa). Visas can be obtained from the Hungarian Embassy or Hungarian Consulate in these countries with the use of a special invitation letter sent by the Hungarian organisers. For more information, contact the Hungarian Embassy or the Consulate Office in your country or refer to the website 2. Climate Budapest has a temperate continental climate. Seasons are usually well defined, with July and August the hottest months (28-30 C, F) and December and January the coldest, when temperatures may fall to 15 C or just +5 F. Early in December daytime frost and snow are still unlikely, but you should bring warm clothes. For more information see 3. Transportation Budapest public transport services Budapest s network of public transport services include buses, trolley buses, trams, underground trains (Metró, but the oldest line is commonly called Underground or Földalatti) and surface suburban trains (HÉV). Buses, trams and trolley buses run daily from 4.30 a.m. until p.m. All three Metro lines connect at Deák tér station, and service frequencies range from 15 minutes late in the evening to every two minutes at peak times. Bus, Metró, tram and trolley tickets have to be bought before boarding; you cannot buy them from drivers and there are no conductors inside trains. Instead tickets are available at Metró stations, tobacconists and newsagents, and from vending machines at many bus and tram stops in the city centre. They are valid for one single journey of any length (without changing) on all routes (excluding those parts of the HÉV that lie outside the metropolitan boundary of Budapest). There is also a range of pre-paid books of tickets and value-for-money passes (e.g. 1-day and 3-day). A new ticket has to be validated at the beginning of each journey. There are lots of ticket inspectors: some are uniformed and others plain-clothed, but they always wear a red armband and carry a photographic identification badge. They can ask to see tickets and passes on any vehicle and anywhere on the Metro system, including after you have got off so please remember to validate your ticket and keep hold of it! Hungarian citizens as well as citizens of other Member States of the European Union over the age of 65 years can travel free of charge on BKV Budapest public transport services. For more information: 3

4 Taxis Taxis have the word Taxi written on them and have yellow registration number plates. It is compulsory for them to use a taximeter that can also issue a receipt. The price chargeable is calculated according to the distance travelled but will also include a fixed booking fee and (if appropriate) a waiting fee. It is customary to give a tip of 10 percent, depending on the level of satisfaction. The total charge that has to be paid by the passenger is made up of three separate parts: the basic charge which is irrespective of how far the journey is (maximum 300 HUF, which is around EUR 1.10 during the day and maximum 420 HUF or EUR 1.50 at night), a per kilometer charge which depends on how many kilometers are covered during the journey (maximum 240 HUF or EUR 0.90 per kilometer during the day, maximum 336 HUF or EUR 1.25 at night), and the waiting charge. It is worth noting down their telephone numbers, and then calling them, because a taxi ordered by phone is cheaper than one called on the street. Some taxis go out of their way to overcharge tourists. Avoid hailing cabs in the street, ask your hotel to order you a taxi from a reliable company, or call them by phone instead. Budataxi: Taxi 2000: Budapest Taxi: Tele 5 Taxi: x6 Taxi: Rádiótaxi: Citytaxi: Fıtaxi: Electricity Voltage in Hungary is 230 volts, and plugs are of the two-pin continental type. 5. Local time Budapest is in the Central European Time Zone. In the winter months clocks are set at GMT + 1 hour. 6. Foreign currency The Hungarian currency is the forint (HUF). There are coins to the value of 5, 10, 20, 50 and 100 forints, and notes for 200, 500, 1,000, 2,000, 5,000, 10,000 and 20,000 forints. The exchange rate as of 15 October is: 1 EUR = HUF 0.37 EUR = 100 HUF 1 USD = HUF 0.51 USD = 100 HUF The majority of banks have 24-hour ATMs, some of which can also change foreign currency. Individual banks and travel agencies are free to set their own rates (based on those advertised by the Hungarian National Bank) but they must be clearly displayed. Rates offered at bureaux de change in the city centre and near the main railway stations are generally better than those available in the banks, at the airport and in hotels. 7. Business hours Most businesses operate from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Department stores are open from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Budapest has an enjoyable nightlife with its numerous restaurants, shopping districts, entertainment facilities and 24-hour non-stop stores throughout the city. 4

5 8. Shopping in Budapest As shopping areas in Budapest are well planned, you should find that shops along Váci Utca (which has some of the smartest stores in the city) or in the recently built downtown malls meet with even the most discerning tastes. However, a stroll along some of Budapest's side streets may also reveal specialist or neighbourhood shops that are of interest too. Opening hours Hungarian shops normally open between 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. on weekdays and between 10:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, although nowadays many supermarkets (especially those out of town or located in shopping malls) have extended hours. And in residential or busy city centre areas, you'll also find 24-hour grocer shops that sell essentials such as bread, coffee, milk and tea, along with other foodstuffs, drinks and alcohol. 9. Assistance in Hungary For English assistance or travel information, just dial +361/ , and a bilingual operator will offer you detailed tourism information 24 hours a day. 10. Taxes and tipping Hungary is one of those countries where a tip is supposed to be given for most services. Most often people give a tip at restaurants; however it is customary to further award the services and kindness of taxi drivers, hairdressers, or porters at hotels. The amount and giving a tip at all depends a great deal on being satisfied with the quality of the service and the attitude and manner of the taxi driver, waiter, etc. However there are many places now where the tip is actually calculated into the actual price. Usually people in Hungary give percent of the official price so that the final price is a round sum, but the tip can never exceed 15 percent of the actual price. 11. Credit cards All the most popular credit, debit and charge cards AMEX, Diners Club, Cirrus, EnRoute, Euro/Mastercard, JCB and VISA can be used in banks and in ATMs to withdraw forints, and in hotels, restaurants and shops for purchases. Signs are displayed at the entrance showing which cards are acceptable. * For more detailed information about Hungary and Budapest, please visit the official Budapest website at: * For other detailed information about transportation and travel information at the airport, please visit the Ferihegy Budapest Airport website: 5
