Reviews
Martina
It was nice to see Budapest from the danube, but the tour was bit slow
Fazekas Z.
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€.
Piusz
WE LIKED:The Riverboat, very nice, very clean. The staff also very polite. The live music was excellent. The musicians sell their CD for 15 euros (5000 fiorints). The view to the Danube is amazing!
Emily B.
The cocktail cruise is a lovely evening activity. It was very nice to be able to look at the old buildings with the great lighting at night. The cocktails all tasted really good! The service from Salwa and Adam was great. The two were very attentive and friendly. The bar employees Dia and Emese also did a great job. I would always recommend this tour! Price performance is top!
Claire
The whole ambience, the service and the food were all great.

"Everything was fine, and the food, and the drinks, and the staff.
I really liked the dessert.Of course, the walk itself, the views are just great."
Diana
Very good. Nice musicians, very attentive, friendly and very professional. We had a great time with them.
Chinmaie
The overall experience in this cruise from the staff to live music every thing was great. The wine selection for the tasting menu was really good. Got to try the Hungarian special wines.
Alena C.
great food and view's, didn't get the free wine with the meal though, there's quite a lot going on at the start of the trip, trying to get feed etc and take in the view's. Budapest lit up at night is beautiful. the boat handily retraces its first part of the route towards the end so you don't have to worry about what you missed at the start..
Francis R.
It was interesting experience. You can enjoy Budapest at night. Beautiful view. There is live band and entertainment. I really enjoyed that. Our server Valentin was very polite and helpful. Great atmosphere. It is two hours cruise with dinner buffet. The food was ok. Definitely worth it.
Rick
lovely cruise to do as a couple with stunning views of the city. the pizza was what you expect and the whole thing was good value for money if you like to get a few drinks in while going down the river. we went during night time in winter (4:30pm) and unfortunately the front of the parliament wasn’t lit but the rest of it was. we walked down to there other days and it seemed to be the same each time. Other than that everything else was lit and it was beautiful to see the city. I would recommend getting there 30 minutes before your slot if not slightly earlier as there was a big queue and if you wasn’t one of the first you would be unable to get a window table and end up being stuck in the middle of the boat.
Rita
Beautiful evening activity, truly special. As for the food, for an organized activity, the quality is quite good, good choice. Excellent service and everything super coordinated! Really quality experience.
Surány P.
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!
Elena
Yes, there are crowds of people here, but I still really love these baths. A huge number of different pools, beautiful interiors, it's cool outside too.
Nika
it was very nice, the food was delicious and the show was amazing!
Valeria
I loved!!! We had a great time! The experience is like being on a titanic haha
Boros D.
Nice musical dinner cruise in head to head (advice: if you want a table of 2, arrive early). Hungarian buffet with soup and main dishes and dessert (advice: go there from the start otherwise it's a queue!). Musicians bring a nice touch and on demand they move to play everything! spectacle of the monuments of Budapest illuminated and you can go on the bridge at mealtimes to contemplate them. To recommend.
Skye B.
Dinner was nothing special. View of the city at night was spectacular, but same could be seen from the river walk.
Maria
We were glad we booked window seats. This meant we were on the upper deck in a smaller room. The music was ok - but too loud. A piano player would have been enough. Most of the time we couldn't talk.
