Your own driver from Vienna to Budapest and the Buda Castle Quarter, and back to Vienna the same day.
The driver collects you in Vienna and drives about 245 km east to Budapest. You spend the time there as you like, and he brings you back to Vienna the same day.
The route. The A4 to the border and the M1 into Budapest, about 245 km and roughly 2h 40m each way. The round trip is about 490 km and roughly 5h 15m of driving.
The places. “Budapest, including the Banks of the Danube, the Buda Castle Quarter and Andrássy Avenue” has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1987. Buda Castle, the castle and palace complex of the Hungarian kings, is part of it.
The pace. With over five hours on the road, this is a full day. You can break the drive in Győr, which lies on the motorway and adds about 10 minutes.
A city in Győr-Moson-Sopron County, Hungary, on the M1, so a stop here adds almost no distance.
