Customer reviews of «Wine Tours» tours in Budapest

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

It was a great experience and a wonderful way to see the sights of Budapest lit up at night. We went for a drinks package, and it felt a little oversold and quite cramped in the room we were in. I’d pay more and book the meal next time, as the upper deck looked much nicer laid out. It was confusing whether the drinks package was table service or not as the waiter was missing most of the trip. Although when asked he did advise he would get drinks for the table. The live music was excellent, really entertaining. All in all, it was reasonably priced and a last minute excursion on our holiday which we really enjoyed, the sights from the river are beautiful in the evening and there was lots of room on the viewing deck. Would recommend!

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.

A lovely way to see the city sights of the Danube at night with live Hungarian music and drinks. The atmosphere on the boat was great , staff very helpful, and the live music made it fun! Even though it rained and it was quite misty, we could still see a lot of the important buildings from the river; and when the parliament building was lit up that made it more special! The extra drinks that we bought on board were fantastic value.

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.

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 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.

Very large boat and it left a bit late because it took a long time to embark all the passengers. There was no commentary telling us about the places we were passing though. The staff were very nice. The musicians didn’t play out on the deck but we went inside towards the end to listen and this was fun.

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.

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.

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 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).

We had a beautiful cruise on the Danube, we braved the cold and went straight to the top deck where we had the mist beautiful views of all the historical buildings and bridged, our guide explained their history over the speakers, beautiful music was played in between making the whole experience amazing, on top of that we had free freeflowing prosecco this trip is a must for everyone visiting Budapest

The trip was brilliant. The boat was spacious and enough room for a sizeable crowd. Views were stunning, the city at night is just beautiful. Prosecco was refilled so fast I don’t think a single person had an empty glass at any given time, there was also water and lemonade available BUT no one tells you that the city turns off the lights to all the landmarks and bridges bang on 10pm so that wasn’t fun and also some passengers came on the boat already smashed and kept drinking until they were sick which was pretty gross but it’s not the cruise ships fault to be fair. All in all, definitely recommend just maybe not the last cruise of the day.

We was supposed to get there 15 mins early! But our taxis kept cancelling! We got to the entrance at 7:02 unsure if we would be able too attend this. However we was greeted with a big smile and asked to see our passes! Followed by 2 glasses of champagne! Which was constantly topped up! Never empty!

Excellent service, excellent organization. It's definitely worth it.

We absolutely loved this cruise. The boat set off just as it got dark and the lights of Budapest come on. You may have seen the sights while walking around the city but from the river you get a completely different perspective. They were very generous with the prosecco, constantly topping us up and there was also a self-serve option. There was just enough commentary between music to explain what you were looking at and overall it was a fantastic experience.

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

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

Such a fun experience! They never let your glass get empty! Highly recommend!

This was a really fun activity. The boat was easy to find and it was all organised well. Friendly staff greeted you on board with a poured glass of Prosecco and the hosts were extremely attentive, our glasses were never empty! We took the 8pm cruise and it was perfect for evening sun on the way out and setting on the way back with the buildings all lit up beautifully. I would definitely recommend as great value for money.

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.

We took the 5:30 pm cruise. The boat was elegant, staff courteous and attentive and lovely sunset and night views along the Danube. The staff were generous with the Prosecco and kept the glasses full. Highly recommend this cruise. Was a highlight of our trip

Great value for money, prosecco was definitely unlimited and hosts were really friendly. Just the right of information about what buildings we could see and their history. Make sure you book a taxi home after as the ones waiting are classed as private and will be very expensive!

An excellent experience. Carlos was extremely knowledgable and engaging. He was generous with the wines and we were there almost an hour longer than scheduled while we continued to chat and taste additional wines. The cheese selection was almost as good as the wine too! Next time a trip to some of the Hungarian wine regions will be on the agenda.

Really amazing guide, detailed and interesting explanation and rich conversation about Hungarian wine

Carlos was an excellent host with great knowledge of the country and its wines. Totally un pretentious so no need to be a wine expert to enjoy - but knowledgeable enough to entertain someone that can taste weird and wonderful things in a Cab Franc. We really appreciated this experience - thank you

Incredible activity! We learn a lot about Hungarian wines etc… When I come back to Budapest, I would do it again!

Such a beautiful experience! The wine tavern is really cute and easy to find. Our guide John was welcoming, knowledgeable and helpful. The wines were varied and had an interesting backstory & overall our experience was wonderful. Definitely recommend, the charcuterie board was a great touch too!

The tasting took place in a small, charming wine bar. I was registered alone and basically had a private tasting. Miki, the owner of the bar, has a lot of expertise and it was a very relaxed atmosphere. There were small Hungarian snacks to eat and the wine selection was really great! I got to know some great Hungarian wines. Thank you for the lovely evening, Miki!

The wine tasting was relaxed and fun - Mickey shared knowledge and stories and we had a great evening. We were able to taste many great Hungarian wines Thank you

Het was een fantastische tour, veel geleerd over de hongaarse wijnmakerij. Alleen maar Fantastische wijnen gedronken.

It was amazing! All the wines are exquisite and the cold cuts were delicious, we had such a blast with Miki. Definitely book it!

We had an amazing experience. Micky was so knowledgeable and entertaining. We tasted some delicious wines and had a great spread of tapas to go with them. Highly recommend!

Excellent experience, Miki was extremely knowledgable, entertaining and welcoming. Thanks for having us Miki, we had a great time!

This is a special event. the host is knowledgeable and yet as a non wine expert he was easy to understand and a lovely and wide selection of wines the food was lovely too. I will be looking out for Hungarian wine for now on.

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.

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!

This was 10/10. The staff are super friendly, the boat is stunning, the food was amazing. You get around 4/5 options to choose from on each course so there is something for everyone. The live music was angelic, stunning voices, soothing and beautiful song choices. I would highly recommend this and thinks it’s value for money. I would do it again and recommend it.

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.

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.

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

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

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

A lovely evening cruising along the river with my family. I booked a welcome drink which was half a glass of Prosecco but aside from that, we all enjoyed it very much! The staff were all very friendly and the violinist was excellent. I was expecting folk dancing which would have added to our experience but we all enjoyed the couple of hours experiencing the boat.

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.

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

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

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

This is a great way to socialise and meet new people. We had so much fun we went twice!

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.

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

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!

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.

It was a great experience, however I would have liked there to be better music. But over all it was a great experience for myself and my friends.

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

Beautiful experience that allows you to see Budapest from another perspective

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.

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

The boat trip was excellent, and the fireworks on the Danube were nothing short of epic. Highly recommended the unlimited drinks option. Thoroughly enjoyed.
