Customer reviews of «Night Cruises» tours in Budapest

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

Beautiful city, easy to walk with average fitness. Hop on hop of bus a must , book for 2 days much cheaper( only 5 euros more than 1 day). Don’t miss Margret Island , lovely to cycle around. River cruise day and night. So much to enjoy , Thermal bathes and New York Cafe.

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

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.

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

Good price if you want to get a good overview of Budapest from the river. The audio was lagging a bit but overall it was a pleasant experience!

At first we thought we wouldn't all fit on the boat because it was so full. We couldn't sit upstairs, but we could sit downstairs at the table, where the chairs were much better anyway. Also, we could rotate the chairs and you could open the windows downstairs so you could see everything great. It was an absolutely beautiful ride and the time (9pm) was perfect.

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

It was the best ran service that I have experienced with hop on and off bus and cruise with this company. Normally they are crap

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

Great evening cruise the sights are fantastic, excellent value, the only thing to make it better would be commentary about what buildings we go past with a bit of there history

The cruise was very enjoyable and seeing the beautiful buildings on the Danube all lit up was breathtaking. Service was very good. The ship itself was pretty nice. Food was pretty mediocre. Overall 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!

There was a good bit of walking from the meeting point to the dock, so be prepared with comfortable shoes. It was well worth it, though. We sat up top to get an unobstructed view of the city. It was just beautiful. There were two drinks included, with choices of wine, Champaign, beer, and juice. Very nice way to enjoy the Budapest sights at night.

The offer with the drinks at the entrance is very value for money (there is an extra free drink included) . If you want an extra drink , the prices on board are great. The lights inside the boat were too strong though, and the duration of the cruise was too long (maybe half an hour shorter would be good). Overall it was a great experience and very value for money.

one of the best river cruise ever. Everything was amazing: the boat, the service, the staff, the music. Really nice option, so, if you do not buy the buffet option, one can always buy food on boar that is delicious and very cheap. Also drinks are super cheap. It was my second time here, and always good.

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

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 was lovely and we were greeted with a welcome drink and a second drink for our meal. However the food staff (2 lads) were very unfriendly and rude. A large serving spoon fell on the floor and I picked it up to give to one of the lads who before I finished trying to explain it had fallen on the floor declared " No speak English " whilst not even looking at me ! Upon finally looking at me he realised what I was trying to show and took the spoon. The same lad up In collecting our finished meal plates simply said " finished? " And nodded his head at our plates! The food was tasty but cold which was a real shame. However the views were great which, whilst no guide is provided, a simple map showing the highlights would have helped. Especially for passengers who had arrived that day . We knew most of the sights as we had been in the city a few days. Overall , good little trip but needs small improvements.

The walk from the meeting point was around 10 minutes, we walked on the riverbank, which was beautiful in the evening. During the dinner we tried all the hungarian specialities like gulas, it was really fine, and I can recommend to join this cruise. At the end the staff was really helpfull when we wasked them to order a cab.

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.

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

The walk along the Danube is a beautiful experience that gives value to your visit to Budapest. We were played by an exceptional musical team that made the experience very pleasant.

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.

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.

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.

"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. "

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.

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…

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 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

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.

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

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.

I took one star off for the coordination. We were not on the list, which caused some issues. Besides that, this is a definite recommendation if you have time. Budapest at night on the river is beautiful!!! We got the drink option which they did bring us through out the cruise

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.

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!

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

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!

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.

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!

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

The cruise was lovely and the staff was friendly and accommodating to my requests. I would recommend the cruise for a lovely evening out with fantastic views of a beautiful city with fabulous ambience.

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.

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!

Exactly what I thought it would be if not better! the restaurant/ main area was really lovely, had a lovely atmosphere and the food was good, just the right portion size for 4 courses and the duck we chose for the main course was really delicious. The piano music throughout the meal was great - The paino battle was cheesy but that was all part of the fun. The staff were really helpful, friendly and attentive and overall we really enjoyed our night

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.

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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!

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.

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!

Csabi very good and efficient in his job, he accompanied us upstairs to enjoy the view and made us feel very good

interior of Ludwig boat was luxurious and prosecco was REALLY unlimited, every sip you took was refilled. Upper part of boat was nice too but the billboard really ruins the atmosphere there… buildings were unfortunately not lightened at 23:00 at Saturday so it was pitty. But cruise was perfect. I recommend. :)

Great views and a very nice, chilled atmosphere. Going in November we knew the top deck was going to be cold, but it is freezing!! Make sure to layer up! All other decks were cosy and warm. The staff were super helpful and always kept our glasses topped up. Overall a lovely and very worthwhile cruise!

10/10, would highly recommend. Excellent value for money and great way of seeing Budapest

Oh my goodness. Unlimited Prosecco is an understatement!! An absolute continuous flow would be more accurate. Definitely worth buying the Turkish bread and dips. Great fun however the commentary lacks the necessary information plus by the halfway mark, everyone is chatting so loudly that it’s difficult to hear. However, the music in between the commentary is awesome! Highly recommend!!!!!

I was pleasantly surprised-it's a beautiful and pleasant boat, there's nothing wrong with it. The waiters made sure that you always had a full glass. And the views are amazing! There is an English speech that tells something, but it was not heard much, and we did not pay attention to it

Very good to get wasted in a very short time. Staff was friendly and refilling quickly. When it is dark and foggy you will not see any sights. But that is not important anyway. 11/10 would do it again

Really enjoyed the evening. Good mix of age on board made for a good atmosphere. The music was relatively loud for a cruise ( but nowhere near nightclub loud). Crew very attentive with prosecco. Always there to refill but also recognising where people were drinking more slowly and didn't want constant refills.

A lovely evening out, nice music and wine (topped up regularly!) - great sights and could pop out to get a better pic - not through the window. Great value for money. We didn't have the platter, just went for a meal afterwards.

This was a great experience. We went at night and all the buildings were lit up which was really beautiful. The prosecco was table service and they came around very frequently, we never had an empty glass. We chose the food option which came with some bread, cheese, vegetables, curred meat, and hummus, it was good, but I would not get that if I did it again. Overall 10/10 experience

Everything was incredible, there was much space for everyone and the waiters would refill your glass immediately. As I'm getting acne treatment, I wasn't able to drink, but it also had lemonade and water, which were a plus if you're not one to drink. Def worth it, book it at night times for the city lights :)

This was my second time taking this prosecco cruise. Love the service, price, and the sights. But someone has to do something about the playlist. It's depressing and horrible. Play more upbeat and fun songs. I mean it's Europe, where's the ABBA?? I don't want to cry to you are my sunshine while I'm trying to enjoy unlimited prosecco!

Frankly it was good, only there was no more bruschetta so disappointment only unlimited champagne. The view was beautiful.

Such an amazing experience! They're really punctual and everything starts on time. The view is amazing, do this if it's your first time in Budapest. For the price, the free flow prosecco definitely worth it. The staff will never leave your glasses empty until one moment I need to tell them to stop cause I think I had enough. The people are all fun such a nice way to network and meet new people.

Amazing evening river cruise. Great value for money and no shortage of Prosecco!!

Best activity in Budapest. The boat looked modern compared to some other Danube sightseeing tours and they kept the Prosecco coming at all times! Views of the parliament were stunning and the background music was nice. Only the infos on the buildings and sights were too quiet to understand.

Very good - Staff were very attentive with serving drinks. Only criticism was that we were sat at the bow of the boat and couldn’t hear the music/commentary very well. Also would’ve liked maybe more info on the places we were passing

Loads of fun, really recommend! Non stop with refilling you up, other alternatives at bar. Great views, really recommend the 7pm slot for the sunset

I was surprised for good It's a nice and nice boat, nothing crappy. The waiters were aware that you always had a full glass. And the views are spectacular! There is a locution in English that is telling things but little was heard and we did not pay attention

Beautiful walk on the Danube, the city lights go out at 22 p.m. to embark on a cruise that ends at 22:15 p.m. Unlimited Prosecco! The waiters serve you throughout the event good atmosphere, but a little loud music and a lot of noise, because many young people come to rest a little before going out

Book it. We sat downstairs as it was cold but went upstairs for the parliament building, it was honestly magical. Very generous with the Prosecco, drink up! My husband liked the truffle pasta, I thought it was a bit meh. Big portion but felt luke warm. Can’t hear any of the commentary because there was a noisy crowd but honestly don’t need it. The inside of this place is fancy, book it, time flies.

Friendly staff, beautiful views, nice Prosecco. Lemonade is delicious!

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

Honestly fantastic! Massive boat! Great unlimited drinks option that were pouring quadruple size shot drinks! Amazing views! Great vibe and free cloakrooms :)

Fantastic experience!! Definitely worth trying...nice atmosphere but the drinks definitely worth seeing again. It is definitely NOT worth buying the all you can drink package.

It was a great evening, but don't expect too much party atmosphere because the music isn't loud enough in my opinion. Many are there to meet other people, but overall very 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.

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.

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.

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...

We did the boat trip with a JGA group. Tickets with drinks included are recommended, it's worth it! The view from the upper deck was perfect. Unfortunately, it took quite a long time until the mood on the boat was good, after that it was almost over again. It would be nice if the journey took longer than 2 hours. You can see a lot of Budapest and see the city from a different angle. Overall recommended, would definitely do it again.

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

My friend and I celebrated her birthday on the boat. The crew was amazing, super friendly, and really helpful. They even helped me make a shout-out to her on her birthday. It was such an amazing experience that it left us speechless. The only downside is the cleanup of the bathroom, which did not exist that much. Otherwise, it was amazing, and I highly recommend the experience!

Music top, drinks service only with 1 bar, much room for improvement
