It was one of the coolest events in Budapest. The pier is easy to find, and everything happens quickly and with a very short waiting time. The staff is very friendly and professional. It's a pity to miss the opportunity to get this experience.

Way too many people crammed onto the boat. If you don’t get a seat by the side, the trip is completely pointless. The organization is terrible. There are so many people that you can barely move, let alone see anything.

Excellent trip on the Danube, boat was very clean and modern, staff were helpful and informative, the trip lasted 1hr and 10 mins, sailed past the parliament building which was all lit up, went as far Margrit Island and back down past Buda castle again all lit up. This was our 2nd time in Budapest and this is definitely the best way to see the best sites, and they are very spectacular when viewed from the river at night. I would recommend this trip to anyone visiting Budapest for the first time.

I liked it but there were not too many places upstairs and a part of the boat was half covered from the sides.

It was good, I didn't listen to the Audio Guide, so therefore I don't know how it is, but the tour was nice.

Mala experiencia, las vistas que hay en el barco, las ves perfectamente desde el suelo. Espacio de sillas, mesas muy reducido! 1 hora de navegación excesiva! Y si lo contratas en invierno, ya puedes ir preparado para pasar mucho frío!
