Full description

Discover Budapest on a romantic sightseeing cruise along the River Danube. See the old buildings lit up and get the best views while sipping a complimentary glass of welcome drink (alcoholic/non-alcoholic).

Climb aboard the boat at the pier at Dock 42 port next to Budapest's Szent István Park and receive your welcome drink upon arrival.

Sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride as you cruise along the calm Danube River.

See the stunning city of Budapest from a whole new perspective and admire the skyline. Sail down the river and marvel at passing monuments such as the National Parliament, Buda Castle, and the recently restored Várkert Bazár.

Head to the open deck for perfect views of the illuminated Vigadó Concert Hall, or look at the floodlit monuments between the Margaret Bridge and Rákóczi Bridge from the comfort of an air-conditioned deck with panoramic windows.

Feeling thirsty? No worries, treat yourself to another drink from the pub onboard or have a hot cup of coffee from the coffee house if you like.

Finally, end your cruise sailing back to the pier with long-lasting memories and great pictures.

Really good cruise for only €11! The drink definitely tasted watered down but can’t complain with the views of the city at night, stunning. Also there is really no queuing system, it’s a bit chaotic, and first in first served for a seat up top but it looked like every seat has a good view either way :)

Though the staff and the whole boat experience was awesome, the people were acting kinda like animals. They couldn't respect the line, were pishing each other desperately to get 'the best spot' (I had even received a wonderful free elbow in my rib). They couldn't be controlled, so I understand that the crew was kinda overwhelmed by their behaviour. Funny or not, we (3 persons) got a really good table on the deck, being among the last ones who scanned their ticket. So why acting ferral? (Just a retoric question)

The overall journey at night on the Danube is quite spectacular and you get amazing views of Budapest. It is also really nice that you get a welcome drink. Unfortunately, it was raining heavily on the day we went and the staff didn't even let us stay inside the boat. We had to wait for everyone to get off. Overall it was a cool experience.
