Travel Agency Packages

I am planning to travel from Budapest to vienna on the train- will I need a visa or any special travel documen

I will be flying from UK to Budapest for 4 days and then going on the train from Budapest to Vienna for 4 days and flying back to UK from Vienna. I read that when travelling by train from Bud to Vie 'papers' need to be in order but i do not know what this means?!!

1. It depends what type of passport you hold. If uk, then usually no problems. But if you are from another country,may have problems. I would check with both embassies - budapest, and austria (vienna) just to be on the safe side. The security checks on the train can be quite harsh if you dont have correct documents.
2. just your passport, or if you are E.U. then maybe just a drives license, but I would have a passport to be sure
3. your passport is enough
4. If you are a citizen of the EU, then a valid I.D. card should be enough. Although I would still rather take a passport instead. No visas are necessary if you're an EU, US or Canadian citizen. Just make sure that your passport is valid at least another 6 months AFTER you plan to leave Hungary. This is a rule more and more countries are starting to adopt. Just to be on the safe side, I would call the embassies in your country and ask them. That's what they're there for!
