We're arriving at the Budapest airport around 10 pm. As I see, there are no more trains at that time. Are there perhaps any buses at the time to take us to Szeged from the airport later in the evening?

Do you know the site / address of any healthy / organic foods shop in Szeged? Do you know where can I buy organic clothes / underwear stuff in Szeged?

Dear friends, I would like to carry out a project called «Tiszavetélö». I come with my bicycle to Zanony and then drive down river Tisza till Szeged, crossing and crossing it by ferries. By this way I would like to merge to central Hungarian way of life. In particular, I cook myself, buying food in shops. I would like to learn some basic things, what should I buy and what should I cook, which oil is used for (home!) cooking in Nagy-Alföld region. I speak very ugly magyarul, but nevertheless I do that. Any other tips are highly appreciated. Many thanks in advance!

Hello, to avoid confusion in Budapest I had thought to pass the 'last' s years in a provincial town like Szeged. I have seen is that the university, so lots of young people. It's worth coming here? The locals speak English? Thanks

We are located in Timisoara, Romania, but I haven't found a train connection without going to Bucharest first, so want to know if leaving from Szeged is a solution.

Hi all. It's been a while since Cudowna's post below so i thought i would ask again if there is any good accomodation that anyone can recommend in city centre of Szeged? Guesthouses and hotels or hostels are prefered. I'm not looking for backpacker/lowest possible price though. I don't want to stay in the Tisza Sport Hotel, not that there's anything wrong with the place, i've stayed there before and it's a nice place, it's just a bit too far from the town centre. A little more luxury is required this time :) Hey Danbp, i'm sure you can help :-D It's a great city and i'm looking forward to visiting again Cheers to you all DG

I've found this "A kifli is a cross between a croissant and a roll. The Szegedi variety (named for Szeged, the southeastern city from whence it comes) has a sweet almond glaze. It's available at cafes or bakeries, but you might have to travel to Szeged for an authentic taste". Can you tell me where can I find something like these in Szeged? And what is the correct hungarian name? Thanks, Bianca
