Hi, my friends and I will be visiting Budapest in two weeks and we have a few questions regarding the 72 hour pass/single tickets. 1. Is the 72 hour pass available for purchase in Budapest-Skeletal? 2. Can the pass be bought using EUR or credit cards? (We are arriving from Prague so will not have any HUG on us) 3. Does the 72 hour period start when you buy the ticket or when you first validate it? 4. Are there single ticket vending machines at every single stop (tram, bus, metro)? 5. Can you buy single tickets using credit cards? What kind of bills do these machines accept? Thank you 🙂
