Customer reviews of «Danube River Cruises» tours in Budapest

Fantastic view to the mail city attractions at sunset and night, more than 2 hours on water

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.

We (my wife and 2 children) found this to be a nice boat trip for the money. Relatively limited seating room on the open deck part of the boat. The commentary was recorded and disjointed at times. Quite a few of the passengers were on the lunch option (lower deck) or ordered drinks and snacks on our (upper) deck. If you don't want a lengthy cruise and you're content to just look out of the window and enjoy the view then it's great. Very relaxed experience.

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.

Clear recommendation, as it is very good value for money. The actual tour did not start at 7:00 p.m., but only at 7:30 p.m., but covered all the sights in 1.5 hours, so there was ample opportunity to see the hotspots that were illuminated when dusk fell to photograph. At night, the already magnificent buildings appear even more magnificent. The drink prices on board are also moderate - I only paid €2.50 for a 0.5 l lager beer (= 990 HUF on 03.06.22). All in all a clear recommendation and gladly again at any time! PS: The online voucher was also the ticket for me, ie I didn't have to exchange it, as another participant wrote.

Nice cruise, Csabi is the best and the view is amazing. Go for it, night light are beautiful, beer is good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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.

It was nice to see Budapest from the danube, but the tour was bit slow

There was wind warning for Budapest that day but they made us wait outside for more than 20 mins. Oh and we can't go up the yacht for reason we don't know.

Great experience! I absolutely recommend it to spend 1 hour of tranquility. It is recommended to arrive a half hour earlier so as to line up, enter earlier and find places down and not up, which are uncovered and can get cold, especially in winter! Very very romantic.

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.

Very good service as described, welcomed as it should be, we booked in advance, it's so much the better because we knew nothing about the crowds

We really enjoyed our time on the unlimited drinks tour. Staff were very friendly and upbeat. Good value for money

Unlimited music and drinks for a nocturnal river trip of more than 70 minutes without explanation, which is good to know. The monuments are splendid at night.

The cruise was very good! Service was excellent, staff were really nice and very accommodating especially Salwa who went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time! Highly recommend the unlimited booze cruise. Note, spirits and shots are not included in the free drinks but the dry white wine is fabulous!

Cruise was fun. Unlimited drinks. The music though was way too loud!

Budapest is a beautiful city to see day and night, and we really enjoyed our dinner cruise. They met us when we boarded and sat us down at our table with a glass of champagne when we arrived. Magnificent views of the parliament, the chain bridge and other attractions.

A must experience while visiting Budapest. Cruising the Danube at night with unlimited drinks was incredible. The views from the boat are spectacular. I highly recommend booking this experience.

Great views and a pleasant cruise. I didn't realise it was more of a ferry/barge type boat where there was no outdoor space which would have been nicer. You are also put into one seated area with access to the bar unlike passengers who didn't opt for thre drinks package.

Excellent relaxed cruise, see all the sights of Budapest along the river lit up at night..highly recommended

Absolutely loved this cruise! We went for this one as we’re not big on Prosecco and it was 100% the tight choice. Great choice in cocktails and you get three for just over an hours trip which is perfect. Servers were amazing as well, Sara was so helpful and lovely. Can’t recommend this enough!

Nice event, the illuminated buildings are really worth seeing. The cocktails were delicious and were brought quickly. Unfortunately, the ship first drove towards Margarethen Island and then south, so that we could not see the illuminated parliament from the ship. (Departure in mid-April at 7:00 p.m.) So maybe choose a later date - if possible.

Nice cruise, Csabi is the best and the view is amazing. Go for it, night light are beautiful!

Cocktails were delicious and it was not saved. The journey started a little late so that only about 60 minutes remained, which is quite sporty with 3 cocktails. The route and the view were fantastic. The audio guide did not always match what was seen. All in all a nice ride and good value for money

a wonderful end to our short trip to Budapest! The cocktails were delicious and, in our opinion, had enough alcohol... and 3 pieces in 70 minutes are absolutely stress-free. There was enough time to enjoy the two wonderfully illuminated banks of the Danube ... incredibly beautiful and recommended

Great value for money, cocktails and cruise were good, great way to see some of the sites. We thought the cruise was going to be someone talking about the sites etc but this wasn’t the case and just had music playing in the background which wasn’t an issue for us.

Myself and 2 other ladies did this cruise on the 26th of November. Was amazing to see all the beauty of Budapest from the river Danube. We sat on deck most of the trip and thoroughly enjoyed the 3 cocktails which was part of the trip. Crew was very helpful. Definitely recommend to go on this.

Was very fun, with the music and the cocktails. The ticket saved you a lot of waiting time

Went at 5,00pm but already full of very drunk young men! So very noisy! But staff friendly and cocktails very nice. Was a fun 1.5 hours

This was awesome! I think they even waited a few extra minutes to depart because we were running late. Great service, yummy drinks, and beautiful views. 10/10!

Great trip up and down the Danube to see the lit up buildings at night. Remember a jacket so you can sit outside as was particularly chilly even on a hot day

An unforgettable experience. The cruise and the spectacular views. Although on the same cruise also traveled people who had hired only the trip, without dinner. They sat without consuming anything at the tables intended for travelers who had dinner included and we had to have dinner sitting on deck in chairs without a table, with the food resting on the knees.

We made the night tour my family and I with the unlimited drinks and pizza package, I have to say that the pizza was not bad at all

A great company went on a cruise along the Danube with a sumptuous dinner and traditional Hungarian folklore dances. The food was excellent with four courses, including a welcome drink, soup and main course…

"I had booked the cruise on the day of my arrival in Budapest. Due to severe flight delay I missed the scheduled evening. The customer service solved the problem by not making me lose money or the tour, postponing the same to another evening. A very pleasant and relaxing cruise. Beautiful accompanying music and very kind crew. I highly recommend it. "

Nice fun activity. Very amazing to see the city at night with lighting. Could have been better with an open boat

Great trip, unfortunately for me, my booking didn’t go through correctly, so no pizza. That was disappointing, however, the host looked after me on the beer front, and was very friendly. I was travelling alone, and wouldn’t have felt comfortable mingling fownstairs with the couples/groups, but instead chose to wrap up warm and enjoy the amazing views from the outside top deck. I would advise doing this on your first day in Budapest to help get your bearings for the rest of your trip.

We had a fantastic time! Food was super fast and the staff were fantastic

Good cruise, plenty of beer, could use a bit more communication with passengers. They never mentioned once that the food was ready it is only because another feisty passenger asked that they handed over takeaway boxes of pizza. I do think that we could have got to the end of the cruise without it being given to us. Also they tried to tell us that dark and fruit beers were not included. So we just showed the description on here and they backed down. Overall the city makes the trip lovely to see it from a different angle.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. A great way to see Budapest lit up in all it's glory from the river. The pizza was washed down with some really nice local beer. A shoutout to Antony & his partner from Sweden who we met on the cruise, hope you and my daughter Anna both enjoyed having happy birthday sung to you.

We loved it. Friendly staff and the pizza was delicious too. Whether ready-made pizza or not, we've had worse at Italians. The drinks were also quickly taken care of. In addition, some party mood music which made everything super relaxed. When we saw the other rather stuffy-looking boat trips around us, we were sure that we had done everything right with this. We recommend it.

Beautiful, but not cerano placed above just jun glass of perfect wine

The view of the lights. Everyone should wait until at least 8:50 to go on night cruise.

A short trip on the Danube. A lovely way to arrive in Budapest. A brief overview of the attractions to see would have been nice! :)

Just long enough of a river cruise to take in the beauty of Budapest all lit up under the night sky.

Lovely relaxing cruise on the river Danube after a long day walking and exploring Buda & Pest. value for money.

Great value for money and we timed it right to catch everything lighting up along the river. Well worth doing to see this amazing city at night.

You have to go early or you risk not finding a decent place to sit. The welcome drink isn't very good.

It’s brilliant would definitely recommend try to go at night if you can seeing everything lit up is amazing

Fantastic trip. Seeing Budapest at night from the middle of The Danube River was truly magical, especially with a couple of glasses of Champagne. Absolutely amazing cruise.

Such good value, get the time of sunset and add one hour to make sure you get the lights. As others have mentioned get in line early to secure a spot on the top deck. We arrived about 45 mins early and were first in line. You collect your tickets from the booth just next to the pier, simple process. Loved seeing the lights and buildings from this perspective. This charter boat was much better than others as it had cover over the top deck just in case of rain.

We had a good evening on this river cruise. The service was attentive and friendly. The view of Budapest is lovely - I imagine it's better in the summer with longer day light hours and better visibility. The pianists and the singers were entertaining, providing gentle background music. The food wasn't exceptional, don't expect fine dining, but nevertheless tasty.

wonderful music and view, food ok, service ok. We paid 30 extra euros to have a table by the window but in the piano Battle room all tables are by the window so we were really upset about this. Also, people who book a 2 courses dinner are served food only after 6 courses people have finished their first two courses, which means you can get really hangry.

I confirm as already read in other comments that the tables are all on the window so it doesn't make sense to spend more to have that type of service, as far as unlimited drinking is concerned, the same is not worth it, cash that the 3 of us spent €33 on more on site for 2 waters, 2 Cokes, 1 lemonade and 1 bottle of wine. Beautiful experience all very good and the city is a dream, obviously the boat goes back and forth in these 3 hours as the main attractions to see from the river are concentrated there

Unfortunately, there were a few people sitting at the next table who were very loud and made it difficult to enjoy the great music. From the half it was really great. There were just no comments on the piano game as described. But it's worth it just for the view and the great lighting of the buildings. And also the food was very tasty and the staff and the musicians were great.

Superb evening! I recommend Admiring the city at night, a wonderful memory

It is worth doing the walk x the Danube at night, you have a super nice view.

We had a great time. The Show was fantastic. The singer has a beautiful voice and George is a fantastic player as his piano partner. The food could be slightly improved on the taste. Wine selection included in the package was good and the service was very good. Our waiters were very kind. I would do it again!

Great dinner, views, and entertainment. We bought the 3 course with window seat package. Thought we would perhaps buy the drink package as well, but al la cart pricing for drinks was better selection and very affordable. All seats were by the window so didn't need to purchase that upgrade (two rows of tables all by the window). The duck confit was amazing! Loved the pianists and singer. Lovely romantic river cruise, would highly recommend!

The boat trip was nice, highlighted by the fact they stopped for as we were running a few minutes late. Service was good, the lady singing had an amazing voice and if you like piano tunes, you'll enjoy. We had the unlimited drinks, includes house wine (which was btw pretty good!), beer, softdrinks. Views along the river are spectacular, of course. We'd recommend.

First a perfect sunset, then dusk and later the lights of the magnificent buildings on both sides of the Danube. Our (first) stay in Budapest could not have started better! If you book the piano battle, you sit in the upper, smaller dining room of the ship, where there are only two rows of tables. Each table is therefore right next to the window, which can be opened. We liked the music (pop music) and the two pianists played very well. The three-course menu, which offered the option of choosing between different dishes, also tasted good. We didn't book the drinks as all "inclusive", but paid for them individually, which was the cheaper option for us. The staff were all very nice. We spent three pleasant, entertaining and well-organized hours on this boat trip.

Really recommend this! We went for the Piano-show which is on a separate deck of the boat. No need to pay the extra money for a window table as all tables are window tables on the upper deck. Menu options were good - the salmon was over salted, but the rest perfect. Great views - have the camera ready!

The cruise was excellent with great views! The only downside is that you have to get a good seat to have the best view. Drinks inside were not overpriced and the parlement building was worth every penny. Overall a great activity! Don't forget to look up the places yourself before the trip to get a better understanding, and be there early to get the best views!

It is a cruise without audio guide, but it is the best value for the money. I recomend to take this tour after you check and see all the building by foot and to pay attention on the cruise on the mail buildings such as Parlament, Buda castle, Fishermans bastiona, Gelert Hill and the Citadela. Also, is is very beautifull to cruise under the main Budapest bridges such as Chain bridge, Elizabet bridge and the Margits bridge.

Make sure to go on a day that isn’t a holiday so that the Parliament building is actually lit up.

Quite a big boat, however alot smaller than some going up & down the Danube. Easy boarding, drink of Lemonade awaited us. Managed to get a seat upstairs to get the best views, went all the way up as far as Margaret Island & down to Gellert Baths. Great to see everything lit up. For the price you can't go wrong

Great experience and hospitable service. You get a drink of your choice with the cruise ticket for a very affordable price.

I liked it but there were not too many places upstairs and a part of the boat was half covered from the sides.

Lovely cruise seeing the city by night, it felt very special despite there being a large number of people. Only downside was that the tannoy system was not very loud so heard nothing of what was being said

Budapest at night was impressively beautiful, the great buildings and bridges with lighting were an experience.

Nice boat trip, we went at 17:00, there was still sun, and at the end beautiful sunset.

The sightseeing cruise itself was OK. However it was unnecessary to wait in a huge queue in a sidewalk just beside a street with very high car traffic. Everyone in the queue already had a ticket. Why not allow people get on board and wait for departure inside the boat?

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 cabin was spacious and very clean. I felt the balcony was excellent value and actually spent time on it.

Very good. We have seen the entire city illuminated. Some beautiful views.

We bought a boat with drinks and live music, and the experience was amazing, we like it.

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.

We liked everything. What could be improved: better identification of where to catch the boat. And make it clear that it's just a glass of sparkling wine or a small glass of orange juice. It’s not “with drinks”.

Well organised, and Great waiter service. However the Live musicians were out to Rip anybody off, playing to the table and selling CDs of local music. A Real Disappointment of our trip to Budapest!!

We booked this event on line for my birthday. We were pleased we booked it before we travelled, it worked perfectly. We had a lovely evening, the beers were nice and we had a bottle of fizz. The music was great and the guys came round asking for requests. Would highly recommend this evening. The sights along the river at night are fantastic.

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.

It was a cold night so we spent the time inside. We received the drink and there was nice music on board. We could not take pictures from the inside as there was a lot of reflection from the light. But you could go outside. We didn’t order food but this was available.

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).

The boat trip was nice because you could see the impressive buildings on the shore so beautifully illuminated. The welcome drink was a touch of nothing, but the drink prices were okay on board. The music group played appealingly and spontaneously implemented our son's wish. We would go again.

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.

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!

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.

All was wonderful. The band, the food and the beautiful night lights and scenery of Budapest!!!

The entertainment was just impeccable. We had such a fun night. The Champaigne Strings were amazing

Loved every second! The atmosphere was great, the tables were lovely, the food was absolutely fresh, tasty and plentiful and the musicians entertained in every genre with great repertoire. Thank you, we loved it

Spectacular. 100% recommended. Amazing views, dinner with varied dishes and typical Hungarian music and dances.

A brilliant experience, lovely food alongside beautiful views and wonderful music. Would definitely do this again!

The only thing I would improve on food and would not do self-service

The most beautiful boat. With space ahead to watch the trip whenever you wanted - but the actual entry (under all Budapest's differently lit bridges) was breathtaking. Perfect service in every way and absolutely good food. A really nice experience. I have been on several of these evening boat tours - and this was the best.

"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."

Lovely boat that had an old fashioned feel about it . Food was good & drinks were decent . The folk band played a good selection of songs . Only downside was our waitress for the evening never showed up after the first 10 minutes . Would do it again next time we visit

The boat was a bit hard to find. The food was only ok. I found myself spending most of the time outside looking at the view than eating.

The cruise was lovely and the food not too bad. I’d read some bad reviews about this cruise, the service, and the food but to be honest, I was quite happy with all of it. Entertainment was great too, very talented musicians., If possible I would probably pay extra next time to be sure to get a table near the windows. Also, in the summer, I would do the later cruise to get better photos of the lights. meeting point information could be a more detailed. I would recommend this cruise.

Beautiful experience, delicious food and excellent musicians, wonderful view, I recommend the 7pm time slot.

I really enjoyed the walk along the Danube. A comfortable boat, from any point of which everything is perfectly visible around. Suitable for walking in any weather.

A great ship. The upper deck is very comfortable. The staff is responsive and suggests some life hacks

A great boat with a panoramic view: you want it on the street, you want it on the second floor (the observation windows move left/ right, you want it on the first floor, everything is clean

An excursion definitely worth doing if you are in Budapest, seeing the city lit up by the Dunube has its charm. A great experience at an affordable price.

Nice trip back and forth alongside Budapest shoreline. We had the option to land on Margarete island, have a walk there and then using the same ticket board on a following boat and sail back to the starting dock 7.

Brilliant little audio tour, comfy seats and free drinks. What more could you want? Excellent value for money!

It was great! Beautiful ship with plenty of space. We sat in the open part. Explanations via headphones, in many different languages to choose from. Duration of 70 minutes, ideal for children.

Lovely hour & a bit on the Danube. Easy boarding and choice of seats.

Seeing the beautiful Parliament building lit at night was stunning! Great commentary! Lovely sunny warm evening capped it all!

It was a nice experience. We had no problems. We watched with great pleasure the magnificent illumination of Budapest at night.

Great trip and good service. Nice with audio guide in many languages.

The windows would not open, so decent photos impossible. A television at the front of the cabin continuously showing images, too bright at night, a severe distraction.

Beautiful experience and great food! The welcome was great and the music made everything very suggestive and romantic. The singer was great and Zoe, the waitress who served us, was professional and kind. This activity is highly recommended!

I would highly recommend this activity. The atmosphere is lovely, intimate and calming. The staff on board are wonderful with a lot of common sense and respect. Absolutely all the tables are by the window which means that it gives you the opportunity to observe all the important buildings of Budapest, Hungary.

Fantastic dinner! We ate really well, the waitresses were very kind and the atmosphere exceeded our expectations. The boat goes around the river several times during the two hours, so there are many opportunities to take pictures of the monuments and you can also go outside. I recommend dressing in layers because it is really hot inside.

The city is so beautiful at night, and the cruise was a great way to see it. Pianists were both talented, and there was a good singer as well. Food was okay, not great. Worth doing for the experience, but (not surprisingly) there is better food ashore!

Very relaxing evening, the selection of food and drinks is good and manageable. The piano interlude has a very special touch. The view is wonderful.

Nice course of dishes, spectacular views, accompanied by beautiful music

This was just great! Beautiful music - 2 piano players and lady singer and host, amazing views of night Budapest and tasty food

A wonderful evening on the river Danube. Good food, pleasant staff and the piano players and singer were absolutely superb.

All the employees were extremely friendly and helpful, especially the piano team and artists were very good. You should definitely attend such an event on the Danube River.

We enjoyed every part of it. The music was wonderful and the food was delightful. (The first appetizer was small though but still nice.

This was a fun date night activity. The staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. The food is buffet style and just okay but the performance is great and the city is beautiful at night. Definitely would recommend

Beautiful experience, the food is good and the view is absolutely unmissable. The atmosphere on board the ship is also very nice.

Cool atmosphere of an old imperial-era ship with professional / perfect workmanship / classical music and the charm of historic architecture You won't leave hungry either. If you do not have a better idea, you will be satisfied. Minus - no information about what you see and what you are swimming around!

It was a pleasant experience, the show very nice, the food rich and the attention of the staff very nice experience thank you

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.

it was very nice, the food was delicious and the show was amazing!

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!

Views were spectacular once you got out on deck after the food. Food was very good. Up there with the best of buffet food. We were asked to arrive 30 mins before. Stood in a queue as boarding didn't begin until 10 mins before departure. A minor irritation. Music was not really my thing. Others seemed to enjoy it. Some a bit too much.

Had a lovely experience on this candlelight dinner cruise with live music and a complimentary drink on arrival . The hosts and everyone was really nice and helpful. The food was a 10 and the view was magical , the night was made even more special when they acknowledged that we were celebrating a birthday and had a special display for us. The tour hosts even waited for us when we arrived a little late at the meeting up venue .

This River Dinner Cruise turned out to be better than we'd expected first was the greeting from the staff very welcoming, after that the whole evening was perfect service, live music, food, Seating, spaced out very thoughtfully. I cannot recommend this particular trip more highly.

It was a good experience. We arrived at the right time. There were 2 tables by the windows and we were sat in the middle row so I asked if we could move to a window seat but the waitress said there are more people to come. The booking didn’t really specify if window view needed to be pre booked so I don’t think it is not having a window seat was justified with the answer we got. I was a bit disappointed because of this so put a bit of a downer on the experience. The food and the rest of the service was great though. Nice selection of food and the bottle of wine we ordered was lovely

Just amazing. The boat and setting was fantastic and a great way to see budapest by night. The parliament building is stunning at night. But the best part was the best food we had eaten for quite a while. Fine dining quality. Sit nearer the bar as we were as I can imagine the live music might be a little loud nearer to them.

We loved the candlelight dinner. The view was magnificent. Food delicious and attentive, courteous staff. Highly recommended!

This cruise is a must when you visit Budapest ! The atmosphere is romantic and warm, due to the live music and the warm heat inside the boat. The food is delicious and the scenery is beautiful. The duration of the cruise is just right and the staff are attentive and friendly. Definitely recommend!

It was a romantic experience on a open boat. To see the shores of Budapest while the son was going slowwwly going down and the city get lit up was truly magical. There were choices in the menu and the food was of very high quality. Overall a very excellent 3 hours spent.

Such a nice view of the parliament by night. Definitely recommend to take a boat tour.

The boat trip and the food were very good. Romantic and well arranged. Only downside was the bill where they apparently counted with 2x a glass of wine because I would have received 2dl. No further discussion. But I didn't think it was very neat if I just ask for a glass of wine.

It was a magical evening for us. The ship was very spacious and sparkling clean. The reception at the entrance was professional, friendly and rounded off with a glass of ""welcome champagne"". The food at the self-service buffet was really excellent (the finest goulash soup, tender meat with spaetzle and apple and quark strudel for dessert. Nothing to complain about fork. The trip on the Danube took almost 2 hours and gave insights into the most beautiful illuminated buildings. We were accompanied musically by a really excellent Hungarian music trio with noticeable conservatory training. We really liked it. We'd love to do it again.

A lovely evening overall. Would totally recommend the dinner cruise.

You get what you pay for. A nice round on the Danube with some food and live music. It was all okay but not that you think wow. The dock where the boat was docked was fairly hard to find. When we arrived, we immediately received a welcome drink and a nice table. There was already a buffet ready and a number of people already tried to serve, but it was only intended to start eating after sailing. I understand the mistake because there was quite a lack of information. We already doubted whether we were at the right boat once we arrived only our name was checked and not the ticket then everything was apparently fine because then we got a glass of champagne and we were escorted to the table we only received an instruction about the drinks . And then suddenly we sailed and the lids of the ''buffet'' were opened. The choice was not huge. There was a choice of 1 soup, 2 Hungarian dishes, bread and a Hungarian cake for dessert.

It was a 3 hours cruise with food. The food that they served were delicious and very Hungarian. We didn't know the dishes name until we went to a restaurant the next day. Surprisingly even though they were serving the buffet style, it tastes better than the restaurant that we went. The live violin music was quite irritating maybe I didn't like classical music.

Lovely boat that had an old fashioned feel about it . Food was good & drinks were decent . The folk band played a good selection of songs . Only downside was our waitress for the evening never showed up after the first 10 minutes . Would do it again next time we visit

Very nice moment, romantic decor, well-cooked and hearty meal, music that takes local or more jazzy standards, and above all, the spectacle of the banks of the Danube illuminated by the emblematic monuments of the city, Bridges, Parliament, Mathias Church, Castle. ..Not to be missed, good value for money.

The boat ride was great, some tech house was going on and the bartenders weren't shy about mixing 50:50. Would I visit again

It was definitely wonderful to be among other tourists/travellers and conversations with them, the views of Budapest from the boat were also breathtaking, but on the other hand the music was quite old and boring, I mean what's a party without good music? The drinks were also quite light but hey free right, I guess for me the best part was just meeting new people, definitely recommend

Perfect plan for a before with friends before ending the evening in a nightclub in Budapest! To do and redo !

Had a really nice time but the drinks were tasteless and expensive also the photograph won't take your picture if you're there alone he only focus on groups or couples so that's a bit sad and not really nice

A good formula to combine fun and Budapest (parliament) at night. The music should have been a bit more varied, the dancing and the open bar were a bit far away, probably on purpose ;) Overall, we were very pleased.

Very nice with a very good atmosphere but the price for the unlimited drink is a little high for the quality of the drink and the quantities to only manage to make it profitable

Of course, the people you are there with and the weather have to be right. Both were a 10/10 for us and so the boat tour was absolutely awesome! I can only recommend the flat rate! The club visit was also awesome. All in all, a successful event that I would definitely recommend.

Great experience! A top atmosphere with good music and the staff is really nice and totally crazy! That's what's good !

I had read mixed reviews about this boat party so was a bit anxious but it was amazing! Luckily our boat didn’t feel too busy.. it was busy enough the dance floor was full and there were plenty of people but it took a few minutes to get a drink and go to the loo. We paid for the all inclusive package and it was definitely worth it! We were never without a drink. The boat moves slow so you hardly feel motion and up on the top is lovely still even with the music pumping.

it was so much fun! everything was included, like mentioned, also a wardrobe for your jackets. after the boat tour there was a party shuttlebus to a club. woult totally recommend this tour!

Great visual experience on the Danube with a friendly atmosphere during the trip and during the after party

The cruise was as expected, the boat was fine, good music and a good atmosphere, the space on the terrace is great. Just point out that it is not worth contracting with an open bar, it is more expensive and they have very little offer of drinks and all of inferior quality, also you can only order at a bar that is in the last corner of the ship, if you take the ticket with 2 drinks that are cheaper, you can order at any bar and much better quality drinks, I didn't like that and it seemed like a lot of scam...

The slightly different city tour :-) Simply great and highly recommended to everyone! Thanks to the captain who navigated our bus safely and skillfully through the stormy waves of the Danube and stayed on course. The whole team is extremely friendly, flexible and great. Thanks!

It was a nice experience. As soon as we got on we were given disposable headphones to listen to the guide. We first took a tour through the streets of Budapest, then we "dived" into the water alongside Margaret Island for a short period, and then we continued our tour by land to the starting point. the moment I liked most was the dive: A beautiful and unforgettable experience; the moment I liked least was the ride in the water: nice, but I expected more.

This all went to plan booked in UK, instruction we great. You do small tour of city which gives you good ideal of thinks to see we booked for that reason on our 1st day of break. you then go into the river and you can see the outstanding buildings and bridges . you are then taken back to pick up point .

I am delighted!!! I read different reviews, but curiosity took over) someone previously wrote that it was boring on the water .. and slowly walking ... did not notice this)) !! Very cool trip! Near the parliament, the bus makes a turn and back!!! All with humor ( Excursion ) the only bad thing is that the bus was pasted over with a film (from the sun) if you plan to take pictures, like me ...))) I advise everyone !! You will not regret!! Guys, thank you very much!!!

The information on how to use the headphones was insufficient. It would have been easy if the accompanying staff had offered help. There was no information whatsoever on the way back ashore. The windows of the bus would have to be anti-reflective so that proper photos / films can be made. Nevertheless, the tour was a nice experience.

Very good! But the audio did not work, but the live guide was so good.

You can see a lot of the city cheaply and taking the bus into the water is an experience in itself. Meeting point is super easy to find, staff was very nice

Bus tour was good and and commentary was ok . However they said for all passengers to wear masks for the duration. At least 14 people on the bus did not wear face coverings and were not enforced to do so . This was off putting and dampened the trip

Sometimes the audio was out of sync, wish there was a bit more audio commentary as I felt myself drifting off to the classical music, but otherwise the whole experience is impressive and not badly priced.

100% recommend. We purchased the round trip transfer from airport to hotel & return. Both drivers were professional, on-time & pleasant. Susanna who arranged timings & pick ups was excellent, very professional and pleasant to deal with, nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely use this company again.

Sudetrip is a brilliant concept. Travel between two cities and see the real countryside on the way. Adam our guide was tremendous, knowledgeable, friendly and very flexible with times and itinerary to make sure everyone fully enjoyed the trip. We just wish Sidetrip could offer more such tours. Well done!

We are really enjoyed this tour. Our guide was Clementina. (I hope I spell her name right). She was so kind and telling us a lot of stories about Venezia. Gondoliere was amazing! He rowed the gondola perfect! I highly recommend this tour!

Excellent service driver on top and on time it was Szilvia Blasko very friendly handled the request on TRIP and everything went well we receive messages via whatapp as soon as we arrived for the welcome

Suzanne arrived a couple minutes early, helped with the luggage, and delivered us promptly. She is very professional and exhibits a warm, engaging personality without being intrusive. The cost for her service was less than both a local taxi or Uber. The next time I am in Budapest, she will be the first person I call.

Yeah, good. Schedule respected. Photo of the car with the registration plate received the day before arrival at the airport

Initially I thought we wouldn’t be able to find a tour as direct sales and every operator had sold out for when we were free. Shuttles from Budapest were the only company who had tickets which was brilliant. The tour was amazing and the building beautiful. Instructions of where to meet were sent by WhatsApp and were very clear. I hadn’t realised that the river cruise was at night until Susana WhatsApp messaged apologised for the time of the parliament visit being brought forward. I said we couldn’t make it as we’d be at the airport and she was very kind and changed the river cruise to a day time one. We were lucky that when we came out of parliament there was a military procession for Botswana dignitaries which was an extra bonus. Thank you again Susana, highly recommended!

This is my first time in Budapest and the tour is perfect for knowing the city and learning its history. My guide Szofia is the best not only she is born and grows up here but she always has some story to tell you at each street/site/building/statue. It feels that the names, events, and stories are her own treasures. BTW, she knows every corner of the street and will get you to the right spot for photos. The tour includes lunch and boat trip. The Hungarian food is so good and I cannot even finish it! BTW, we ran into a very special military ceremony event at the Millennium park. Thank you Szofia for a very nice full day tour.

"We had a great tour with Susan. She took us to all the major memorials and gave us a great history lesson. We learned so much. Lunch was great and I would tell anyone I know to ask for her "

"All Good, good foods, nice hungarian dance & music good city view, will definitely come back, glad we all enjoyed!! "

Nora was a great guide. We were driven in a comfortable Mercedes Minivan. Also had a nice lunch and river cruise. Learned a lot about Bedapest.

George was great with the information and we saw many places and his English was fantastic. Very polite! I wish I had had him for the Vienna tour.

"Very vivacious passionate guide who was most concerned about our experience. Great job nice lunch with boat ride on river "

Thomas was very knowledgeable about the city and provided valuable historical information to us. He also planed the tour around traffic, parking locations, opening hours, best viewing spots..etc. so that we get to enjoy seeing the city in the most efficient and enjoyable way. Really appreciate his effort.

Our tour guide Szofia was excellent. She was very knowledgeable about the beautiful city of Budapest and took her time to explain all the history and interesting facts about each aspect of the tour. Lunch was included and although my daughter is both vegetarian and has a gluten free diet, her needs were met and confirmed during the booking process. I can highly recommend this tour.

Excellent trip with knowledgable guide . Viewed about of the important sites and good transport with car. Would recommend as great insider view of the Budapest.

Our family of 5 had a wonderful time on the tour. Our tour guide Nora was wonderful and very knowledgeable about the history and Buda and Pest and took time to explain all the sites. She even helped our daughter practice her Hungarian. Some of our favorite sites were Hero’s Square and the Castle in Buda. We had a delicious traditional Hungarian lunch and they accommodated for our gluten and nut allergies. Rounding out the tour was the cruise in the Danube which was incredible to see the sites from the river. We would definitely recommend this tour.

Nóra Mathe is an exceptional tour guide who took us on a mesmerizing 7-hour private tour of Budapest, Hungary. Her knowledge, enthusiasm, and passion for the city shone through as she expertly navigated us through all the major attractions. Nóra's insights and engaging storytelling truly brought the city to life, making our experience unforgettable. Her professionalism and attentiveness to our preferences made the tour personalized and enjoyable. We highly recommend Nóra Mathe for an enriching and memorable exploration of Budapest!

This is a great personalized tour. My guide Edith was very knowledgeable and extremely helpful in showing me the sights

Loved the activity. Got a welcome prosecco on arrival and a cocktail. The boat cruise was amazing and saw amazing views of the city. I loved the decor and music. Only negative comments is we were sat in the centre and could hear both sides of the boat playing different music which was a bit overstimulating

2 hours seemed a bit long for the trip. The live music was nice and cheerful. There should be some hot beverage serving in the cold months preferably some tea or coffee.

Impressive! A delightful sight from the water to Prague, a wonderful walk along the Vltava River, a wonderful motor ship, excellent service! Musical accompaniment during the whole walk, a very talented group of musicians. And of course a very delicious dinner. We were thrilled! Thank you

The best activity I have done in Budapest!! The incredible price includes a glass of champagne and three musicians play Valls during dinner, there are two dancers who take photos with you after the show and the musicians go table by table playing the songs that each table wants to hear, they are charming. A true luxury that must be done yes or yes!!! Plus the boat is beautiful, it's worth it. Of course, the food is not worth it but the activity must be experienced!!! We loved it

I liked the tour, everything happened as it was stated. Music, buffet with national dishes. Of course, such excursions in Moscow require waiter service, and this is more convenient. But the buffet was announced initially and the dishes were agreed, so you should not expect miracles. We were seated by the window, although we did not pay extra for it. Service is good, everyone is friendly. I liked the musicians. As entertainment on a trip, I recommend.

We didn't go much. Stayed just on one place and was about the performance rather than the cruise itself. And I was there more about the cruise

It was such a perfect night and worth the money! I organised this on the night of my partners birthday, i let legenda know in hopes i could possible request a window table, little did i know they went beyond this and sung him happy birthday with a candle to blow out in his dessert too! Such a lovely suprise and really completed a beautiful evening! Extra drinks are so affordable and all the staff are lovely, the singers were amazing, thank you for an amazing trip!

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.

Everything was excellent, except for the food. The issue of nutrition can be improved. It should not be much, let it be simple, but let it be tasty. More vegetables

It was a really enjoyable time, but we only saw the Hungarian parliament over the whole 2hs

I loved!!! We had a great time! The experience is like being on a titanic haha

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.
