[PragueBlue]

Thinking of going away over the international break and was thinking of either Prague or Budapest anyone been to both could give me an idea which is best.

I'm perhaps a bit biased but I'd say Prague ;-)

IMO more to see and do, prettier city, more cultural, more compact and, as such, easy to get round on foot but there is also excellent public transport, better food and beer, overall just a nicer place.

Someone from Budapest may disagree though ;-)

Both fabulous cities worth a visit.

Budapest is a much bigger city split by a river which separates Buda and Pest.

Lots of architecture, good beer, and the saunas/spas are incredible. You can do one on the bank of the river.

Prague is a more intimate jewel of architecture. Famous for its pork knuckle and also has great beer. Be careful of the taxes they try to apply on food if you go there. It’s also one hour away from Vienna via bus.

Very difficult choice to be honest, I’d try to do both lol

That would be one very quick bus. The journey from Prague to Vienna by bus or train would usually take about 4 hours.
