There has been no regular border control between Austria, Slovakia and Hungary since January 1, 2008. This has brought about a big change for the locals who otherwise were subjected to it daily.
By car
The M1 motorway passes next to GyÅr, if you come from Budapest or Vienna, it's the best choice. From the southern direction e.g. the Lake Balaton you can get into GyÅr via the main roads No.81 or No.82.
By plane
Bratislava Airport, a 75 minute drive away, 2 hours on the bus has many low-cost flights. Vienna Airport and especially Budapest Airport offer competitive prices, they are both reachable in about two hours.
By ship
GyÅr lies on the banks of the Mosoni-Duna Moson-Danube, so it has a waterway connection to Budapest or Vienna.
Canoe tours are preferred to be taken also on Mosoni-Duna.
