Very interesting cruise and with a cost well below others .. we were told that we would have a guide in English, but there was no guide to explain what we saw! Just a girl who came to us from the meeting point on the ship.

A bit awkward at first, as you first have to exchange the voucher for tickets in the office in the city, then you go to the boat with a guide and then crowd around the next boat with a hundred other guests. The table is then assigned to you. The explanations in English via loudspeakers are also difficult to understand, since it is quite noisy inside due to the bar operation etc. Nevertheless it is a very good offer for the price, you can see a lot of the city, the journey takes 90 minutes, the drink prices on board are ok and there is space at the round tables, the toilets were also ok. You could also go to the outside deck at any time to take photos.

Easy to find meeting point through the app. Outside the building there is a sign indicating the meeting point. I went in and they gave me tickets for the tour. At 3.30 pm our guide arrives and accompanies us to the pier for departure. A beautiful 1 and a half hour tour that reaches the last bridge. Suggestive is to see that from the light of day, the buildings and bridges around 4.30 pm begin to light up giving a breathtaking sight. The speaker explains only in English. There is bar service available. I highly recommend booking this visit which has excellent value for money. With other tours I would have spent 20 euros per person.

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.

ride for those who want to rest. Not very informative, the sound of the recording is very low. But it fulfills its promise: it goes through the 6 bridges, explains about them, besides the main tourist attractions of the waterfront: castle, São Matias church, parliament, etc. Who will do the bus rides will not have much added.

It was alright for the price. Didn't expect a welcome drink and that was nice. Do arrive really early to snap up the window seats and it's important to scan the QR code on the table to download the audio guide. There's no announcement to do it so if you miss it out, you don't get any audio guide.

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.
