Hi everyone

Wondering if you can help or share your experiences. I put some of my questions into the itinerary in italics.

I am planning a 4-day low-cost trip for 3 in early April.

Here is my rough itinerary:

Monday:
Land in Budapest
Tour Buda, Buda Castle, Pest and its synagogues
Shoes on the Danube

Where to rent a car from?

Decent, inexpensive place to stay near Jewish Quarter?


Tuesday:
Depart Budapest
Ehrlau (Eger)
Kever of R' Yoel Margereten and R' Avraham Shmuel Binyamin Sofer

Budapest food and hotel, there are multiple close to the Kazinczy shul, check for hotel rates within your budget.

Nyíregyháza is pretty similar in Yiddish, Niredhaaz, very famous city.

In this thread you can find a ton of resources, better to ask your questions there as well.
