Details
From the river, Budapest, which is frequently cited as one of Europe's most beautiful cities, is even more stunning. The Gellért Bath, Mt. Gellért with its Freedom Monument and the Citadella, the Buda Castle, and the Fisherman's Bastion are among the World Heritage Sites on the Buda side, which extends from the Chain Bridge to the Technical University. You can marvel at iconic structures like the House of Parliament and the St. Stephen's Basilica on the other side of the river.
You'll have a lot of chance to appreciate drinks in the air-molded lodge and afterward head to the outside upper deck to respect the scene of Budapest around evening time.
The well-known "cimbalom," an exquisite original Hungarian instrument, is also featured in the performance. The cimbalom and string instruments create an unforgettable harmony that is uniquely Hungarian and create an outstanding atmosphere on board.
Do you want to hear your favorite popular song in a new way? Guests will have the opportunity to request their favorite songs during the performance.

The tour is great! We took the evening tour and enjoyed the buildings at night. There is an audio guide included in the price in many languages (Greek, too) which gives you very interesting information about the city, not the one you can find in any guide, but the details you have to search for. I would recommend you do the cruise at the beginning of your visit in Budapest so that you get to know the city. The staff is very friendly and the drinks offered make the one-hour cruise more enjoyable.

It was good, I booked the cruise without the restaurant and when I got there I was offered a free white wine, and they gave me a menu with cheap prices. I wanted to book the restaurant cruise but it coasts a lot more and you can find the same food on the cruise without the restaurant.

Fabulous evening cruise on the Danube.Chance to see the sunset and then see all the main buildings and bridgrs lit up,it's beautiful. Great musicians play at each table and there are dancers on the deck where meals are eaten. Good choice of drinks,we had 3 free beers with our ticket. It was also a 2hr cruise which is longer than most. Highly recommended .

Fantastic evening spent on the river cruise. Greeted with champagne and amazing Hungarian trio band who interacted with the crowd. Loved every minute of it and would 100% recommend, especially to do the river cruise at night, stunning views of Budapest

Mine was the night cruise with just welcome drink @10PM. The whole programme was well organized and I see few reviews saying that there's not enough space (two dining areas and a top deck) or not more than one drink provided for free. Well, it depends on how much you pay. It's clearly mentioned while booking. Moreover, it's not a "long" walk, around 500-600m only. Overall, it was a superb experience! Keep up the good work :)

We've been pick up on time by our friendly driver. We've been looked after since the beginning. 3x were included in the price. Food was abundant. Music is amazing. But our main priority was the overlooking sights of Budapest at night which we spent most of our time in the terrace. We were dropped off in the end in our apartment and had good time. The only negative would be sitting next to strangers on a round table for dinner if you are a reserved kind of person and wanted to enjoy own's company with friends/family.

We booked this cruise for our first night in Budapest and was not disappointed! It is the perfect way to see all of beautiful buildings/bridges. We selected the cocktail option and we’re very satisfied as they were delicious (strong too so a little tipsy by the end of the night!) There was some entertainment too which involved some traditional dancing, this was lovely to watch. Would definitely recommend this cruise, all the staff were also very helpful and friendly!
