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!

I was really disappointed by this evening which is a shame because all of the reviews were really good. I don’t enjoy massive boat trips so wasn’t aware that what seemed like at least a few hundred people would be onboard. You meet at the Danube and then are briskly walked to the boat ( this was a complete shambles, no on the tour group had a clue where they were going or what the location of the boat was) would have been much easier to just meet at the boat. The cruise itself was fun for the first hour but after it felt really dragged out and there was just way too many people but that’s because I prefer much smaller experiences with less people.

A first drink (Champaign-not good) and a coupon for a second one (beer/wine/soft drinks) were enough for the 1.5 hour of the cruise. Especially the beer was worthy to taste. The musicians that kept as company were very friendly. They knew at least one song from every place on earth to play when the come to your table. Unfortunately it was raining and we couldn't admire Danube from the Deck of the ship. Although the price was a bit high for what was included it was a nice experience.

I booked the trip on the Danube for my daughter’s ‘hen’ treat with her sisters, friends and myself. The crew were so courteous and welcoming. The complementary drinks were very thoughtful and much appreciated. The actual cruise on the river was calming and absolutely magnificent, especially in the evening with all the buildings and surrounding area lit up beautifully. My daughter, as well as all of us ladies, have a amazing and fantastic memory to remember and hang on to, forever. Thank you so much! Xxx❤️

The boat is amazing, a old preserved one. But you can choose your place to sit, and the explanation was missing, and also the music if you are outside (if you didn't pay dinner).

What an amazing evening. The staff were friendly and courteous; it was all very well organised. The cruise lasted two hours, starting near the famed Shoes on the Danube, taking us past Parliament then back by the Citadel for a round trip. Our tour was at 7pm and Budapest at night was even more beautiful than it is during the day. The cruise was relaxing and fun, with brilliant value for money. Plus, there were plenty of opportunities to take fantastic photos. Everything was accompanied by live music, which ranged from traditional Hungarian to TV pop culture (A Game of Thrones was a favourite)! The atmosphere was so cosy and relaxed. I would heartily recommend this boat tour to any tourist visiting the city.

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.

It was my first time cruise and I was immerssed with the music and the dance. It will be better if we able to book the 7pm Cruise. Sadly it was full booked.

This was a great introduction to the city for me. We met at the office (not far from St. Stephen's Basilica) at the appointed time and then walked together to the river. This added an additional 30 minutes or so to the departure time, which made an already late evening, even later. Just something to consider. The sun sets very late in the summer so if you want a night tour, it will have to be late anyway. The views were beautiful and the live music made for an enjoyable atmosphere.
