The cruise was lovely and the food not too bad. I’d read some bad reviews about this cruise, the service, and the food but to be honest, I was quite happy with all of it. Entertainment was great too, very talented musicians., If possible I would probably pay extra next time to be sure to get a table near the windows. Also, in the summer, I would do the later cruise to get better photos of the lights. meeting point information could be a more detailed. I would recommend this cruise.

The cruise was very enjoyable and seeing the beautiful buildings on the Danube all lit up was breathtaking. Music was quite good and entertaining. Service was very good. The ship itself was pretty nice. Food was pretty mediocre but the glass if Champaign was a nice touch. Overall enjoyable.

The most beautiful boat. With space ahead to watch the trip whenever you wanted - but the actual entry (under all Budapest's differently lit bridges) was breathtaking. Perfect service in every way and absolutely good food. A really nice experience. I have been on several of these evening boat tours - and this was the best.

We enjoyed the evening... informality, music, atmosphere, the ambience cruising along the river at night. We liked that the waiting staff were allocated to particular tables, and our waiter was courteous and helpful. However, we barely saw him after the meal commenced as he was very busy, so we were unable to order a second drink. We realise that with so many people on board, staff are very busy. The pea soup was superb. The meat dish was quite nice. Apple slice with apricot sauce tasted delicious. It is difficult to prepare food for so many people and meet their many tastes. I believe under the circumstances you did very well. I suggest two things: - Option if someone has allergies; I did not know how to ask about this when booking. - Coffee or tea for end of meal. We felt like a having a cuppa after our meal. A wonderful evening. Thank you.
