Great experience! I absolutely recommend it to spend 1 hour of tranquility. It is recommended to arrive a half hour earlier so as to line up, enter earlier and find places down and not up, which are uncovered and can get cold, especially in winter! Very very romantic.

The night cruise is very interesting. Budapest at night looks wonderful from the perspective of the ship. Unfortunately the music is not heard on the terrace.

Clear recommendation, as it is very good value for money. The actual tour did not start at 7:00 p.m., but only at 7:30 p.m., but covered all the sights in 1.5 hours, so there was ample opportunity to see the hotspots that were illuminated when dusk fell to photograph. At night, the already magnificent buildings appear even more magnificent. The drink prices on board are also moderate - I only paid €2.50 for a 0.5 l lager beer (= 990 HUF on 03.06.22). All in all a clear recommendation and gladly again at any time! PS: The online voucher was also the ticket for me, ie I didn't have to exchange it, as another participant wrote.

The boat trip lasted two hours on the same route - this made it possible to have a more leisurely experience. It was also nice that the ride started at 7pm and then it soon got dusk and the lights of the city came into their own.

That a perfect fair for this money! We had live music with dances of profesional dancers. Ship is big and you can outside to enjoy the view. Other than this you have your table when you can enjoy the bar drinks and food. Really, for this price is PERFECT!

Superb cruise, 90 min allows you to fully enjoy the Danube and the different landscapes! Possibility to have a drink during the cruise and the prices are very correct. I highly recommend because the cruise is well worth the 8€ unlike some at more than 20€.
