It was one of the coolest events in Budapest. The pier is easy to find, and everything happens quickly and with a very short waiting time. The staff is very friendly and professional. It's a pity to miss the opportunity to get this experience.

Bakos M.
Excellent trip on the Danube, boat was very clean and modern, staff were helpful and informative, the trip lasted 1hr and 10 mins, sailed past the parliament building which was all lit up, went as far Margrit Island and back down past Buda castle again all lit up. This was our 2nd time in Budapest and this is definitely the best way to see the best sites, and they are very spectacular when viewed from the river at night. I would recommend this trip to anyone visiting Budapest for the first time.

The views are priceless, the cruise is very pleasant, delicious welcome lemonade. The places that you manage to take the most determine the satisfaction with the cruise, because you can have a very poor view, or even the lack of it. The line to the dock has formed more than half an hour before the cruise, it is worth being in the first 30 people.

It was on time and enough seating for everyone on board. The information was provided on over head tv screens which was useful since we did not have earphones to listen to the App version of the commentary. It was relaxing and the use of the on board bar was great.
