About the Budapest – Lviv route
The Budapest – Lviv bus links the Hungarian capital with the main city of western Ukraine. The route crosses Hungary to the border near Záhony and Chop, then continues through Zakarpattia and the Carpathians — or around via Slovakia — to Lviv. The trip takes about half a day. Budapest is a major Central European aviation hub with cheap flights, so the corridor is often used as the second half of a journey: fly to Budapest, take the coach to Lviv. Lviv in turn serves as the hub for onward travel deeper into Ukraine.
