Customer reviews of tours in Budapest

The tour it self was ok. Views were spectacular. It was actually one of the best experience you can get while in Budapest. Highly recommended. On the other hand, organization was the worst part. They tell you to get at the meeting point 20 minutes before the start of the trip, just to stand in line to find out you have to get in another line where you have to wait another 40 minutes before they start to let people in. Guest that want to pay extra money on full open bar trip are most important...

Nice ship, beautiful view! The music played in the background, sophisticated buffet. You have to go early to get a good seat!

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

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.

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.

Could be better if there were no weed smokers and sick people.. had a company behind us who always coughed and some people who smoked weed outdoors and the smell came inside all the time. I understand that people organizing this trip do not check people out or maybe don’t care. But would be better if there were a bit stricter rules regarding this. Had also stand a long queue to get on board when the ship was there already and I must mention that amount of people doesn’t make this trip pleasan...

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

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

Wonderful time during the cruise. Great views especially during the night time! I highly recommend it:-)

It was nice to see Budapest from the boat and during the evening time, with all the lights. All my family enjoyed that. The possibility of small refreshment on the boat was fine (bufet), but it is not on all selected boats. 1 hour ride was sufficient in cold October weather.

Couldn’t see much. Was more for people who wanted to drink we would say.

Despite pre-booking, there was no boat trip at 8:00 p.m., but only at 9:00 p.m.! The trip itself was great, but the acoustics were bad and so was the arrangement of the seats on the ship! The journey took less than 70 minutes!

Beautiful experience, nice warm structure with a beautiful view, the sparkling wine is also excellent and there is the possibility of having an aperitif as you like while enjoying the view .. if you are in Budapest you must do it

Excellent service, I bought the tickets online and downloaded the application and no problem 10 out of 10

The views was amazing, especially I recomend the open space, without the windows...

The cruise is beautiful. Hungary at night is a delight. Highly recommended. The location of the dock is kinda out of the main center, our cruise was at 08:40PM and after the cruise at 09:40PM, there was literally nobody around the area, it was kinda scary, try to book a earlier cruise if possible or choose to go to the hotel by taxi if possible. The public transportation line 75 is easily available upon walking 5mins from the dock, but there would be nobody in the area and it is dark.

Super experience! Council in the evening hours to better appreciate the illuminated Parliament

Everything was as it was stated on the Website. On time, enaugh place to seat inside and outside.

It was a very nice evening cruise. Unfortunately the location of the pier is a bit far compared to others, but we still enjoyed it a lot. Friendly service, warm inside the boat and good vibes.

Make sure to be there on time, otherwise you’ll end up staying on the first floor, which was fine but the led blue light was too bright. Beside that, it was a really nice experience and I would love to do that again someday.

Fab boat tour. City is beautiful at night! Arrive early to be able to get a good seat as it was very busy but you are able to get up and walk around. Seating outside also. Highly recommended

It's okay, it lasts 1 hour and when you arrive they give you a glass of champagne, when it was cold inside they had stoves and it was very comfortable. You have to walk about 20 minutes from the parliament to get to the pier where it is located.

staff were lovely and the menu was reasonably priced. try to get at the front of the line to grab a table on the top deck outside for the best view

If you’re looking to get on probably one of the cheapest boat rides on the river, this is it. It’s very basic and does exactly what you need, which is to get closer pictures of the buildings at night. There were a lot of people and if you don’t line up early, you don’t get the front row seats outside. Check in and boarding was on time and orderly. Champagne was basic. Bathrooms were basic. I did appreciate the jazz music playing over the speakers, which added to the ambiance. I can see how ot...

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.

I would really suggest people take this tour . Nice place to sit outside and take pictures and enjoy the view. Nice atmosphere inside to enjoy the music and dance by some locals. we paid 14 euro per person for this tour with one free drink n we really enjoyed it. I must recommend it to other

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.

Very enjoyable evening out on the water. I would suggest taking a later cruise though, because it is not dark enough to catch the lights on the beautiful parliament building with a 7PM departure. Unfortunately, boorish British tourists ruined the evening for me.

Very good, in the offer is included a glass of tokay and then another glass of your choice (soft, champagne, wine, water) I advise you if it is not too cold to take outside because the places near the windows are reserved or take if late arrival. I advise you to come early

lovely cruise and live music was a great touch, the band got a little close and personal. but it's a nice serenade for anyone wanting one for there otherhalf. it's a very romantic cruise lovely views and definitely worth the money. one criticism is the menu for just drinks is smaller if you want food reading a view we thought you might of got the full menu even if you didn't get the food plan this is mistaken. so if you want food on the cruise I would definitely recommend making sure you pay ...

Budapest at night is beautiful from the river and this is a nice boat. The only is you are paying a bit extra for a glass of Champaign which isn't worth it and the marketing states that the trip is two hours but actually you spend most the first hour at dock.

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.

The staffs and the ride were very nice. The view in the night was excellent and the live music was really good. The wines that were offered were good but nothing special, most of them you can find in the supermarkets. I was expecting to get at least one normal glass of wine instead of a small glass of wine. But in the end the ride really worth the money. The staff, the live music, and the the view made the difference.

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.

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 choosi...

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.

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.

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!

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

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

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.

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.

Very nice cruise unlimited alcohol as planned but no toast or food as planned Unfriendly staff and impossible to access the toilets at the end of the cruise despite my many requests

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

Stunning views! All the seats had pretty good views inside, but outside was phenomenal! Even though it was cold outside, I could hardly tear myself away to go inside to get warm. Staff kept the prosecco topped off on our glasses. Never had an empty glass. One of our best nights in Budapest

Good tour. A little out of town - so a walk. But great to see the city at night and also very generous on constantly refilling the fizzy wine (don’t expect high end fizz - but nice enough in quantity). The boat was full so turn up 20 /30 mins early to ensure you get a good seat with a view.

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 ...

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!

It was a wonderful experience on the Danube. A beautiful night, amazing sights and plenty of processco and a great cheese and meat platter. Well worth the money!

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.

Fantastic evening & a beautiful way to see the magnificent buildings of Budapest from a distance, all lit up. Staff were very attentive & welcoming. Unlimited Prosecco was fruity & enjoyable. Unfortunately the queuing system to board was disorderly, so a bit of better organisation on the quay would certainly improve matters there.

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

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

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 :)

The views were amazing although we were not very lucky with our experience. The audio guide didn’t work well so we missed half of the explanation. They also offer a drink but my and my friend glasses were so dirty that we could drink from it. If they improve cleanliness and audio maintenance it’s an experience to have while in Budapest!

The view of the city from the boat is a beautiful experience. The boat is very comfortable and the embarkation point is also well organised. The service on board was very fast.

We did the tour on the last night and it was by far the highlight of the trip. The illuminated buildings have so much charm and simply enchanted us. The glass dome from the boat was perfect to really see everything perfectly!

Nice cruise, too bad that where we were sitting we did not work the audio guide so there were no explanations of what we saw outside.

Great time although the queueing system to get on the boat wasn't great. Get there early and be prepared for a lot of pushing to the front. Great hearing about all the buildings and their history and the free drink was a nice touch - would recomend you do it

Really wonderful experience in Budapest that I would recommend to anyone. Location is easy to find, most beautiful scenery in whole city, many options for audioguide (and I really appreciate it that you have it in Lithuanian). Down sides are that wine was not good at all but it did not ruin the experience.

Great way to experience Budapest at night - a must if you are travelling here. Especially the Parlament! What a view! We had one drink included in the ticket (you cab and even an audio recorded guide (earphones). You can manually choose a language. would recommend.

Hi, it’s was magical. First, get there a bit early and once you board, there is an upper deck, find your way there asap, so you can get the outdoor views! Bring a jacket as it gets cold, I wore a warm sweater and coat. Perfect for October. I took the 21:30 (9:30pm) and seeing it lit up was beautiful. I got a glass of champagne!

An hour I spent on the cruise was one of the best moments during my stay in Budapest. If you have enough time for this experience, I truly recommend it. Also, bring some hotter clothes if you plan to sit in the open area (on the top of the cruise).

One-hour walk through the central area of the Danube that surrounds Budapest. The audio guide is quite complete, it describes aspects of the architecture, local history and some curiosities. The good thing about seeing the city at night is that you especially appreciate the significant buildings that are very well lit. I only regretted that Margarita Island was not skirted and that the guide was not always completely in sync with the tour.

One of the highlights of our trip to Budapest. The night cruise was so beautiful. The audio guide was interesting, the staff were helpful and it was great to enjoy that with a glass of wine.

Nice boat. Departed on time and had good commentary. Saw all the great sights. All good!

The boat trip was very cheap and for 70 mins I found this good value. There was loud music playing and a bar selling alcohol, cocktails, soft drinks, as well as pizza. I would recommend this trip, but NOT to families. The boat was full of groups of men and stag do’s who were loud and lively. I feel it would not be appropriate for a family trip. But it was a great ride and a way to see the sights

Everything has gone very well from the reservation to the activity, recommended

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.

Nice trip, beautiful day, very peaceful aboard the boat and a lovely way to see the city (and out of the blazing June sun!). The drinks were also very appreciated (one free fruity juice drink per person).

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!

The views and time were wonderful! You have inside and outside seating, your choice. We sat outside. There weren't enough speakers or the volume was low. So, we couldn't hear the tour narration. Apart from that, all was good.

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

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.

The experience was very impressive, good food, exelent music and a great dance show.

Embarkation was easy, but some signs would have helped, since there was another ship right next, and a huge line of people waiting to go on that one. Food was terrific! Really good and tasty! Congrats to the chef! The lights were too bright, which made it very difficult to take pictures of the beautiful sights, since the light reflected of the windows. Consider dimming the lights next time. All in all, worth it.

Be there we'll before time. We were asked to check in at 7.10 for departure at 7.30 but when we arrived at 7.10 most tables were occupied Excellent orchestra Difficult to find the way to the boat as this is shared with other boats

We had so much fun! 18 of us laughing, dancing, eating excellent food, viewing this gorgeous city all lit up!

Food was OK. Some drinks was brought to table, even we didn’t ask and than we were charged for it. No time to see attractions and make pictures

Very entertaining and the foods was good. Did not see the lights though.

Had an amaizing time with very decent food, friendly staff and great traditional Hungarian music and dance! Definitely worth a go while you're in Budapest.

Cruise at the top with good explanations and welcome drink I recommend

Very relaxed tour with interesting explanations from the audio guide. We could even have gotten off at Danube Island. Absolutely inexpensive and informative!

Great tour, nice refreshments and commentary on headsets if you wanted it! Excellent value for money

We had a really lovely hour on the boat. There are headphones on the boat guiding your tour in multiple languages. You get a choice of beverages, I had wine and my partner had apple juice. The boat is covered so the weather does not prevent the tours from taking place.

It was very good, directions to the location were good and we had no problem finding the boarding point. A free drink as soon as you were on board was very welcome. The commentary was helpful to pick out the buildings, with a male voice for the Buda side and female for the Pest side. The bonus was that Margaret Island was open, which was closed when we booked up. All in all it was a really enjoyable experience.

The best part is that they drop u off at margaret island and then u can take a boat a few hours later back to the marina

The ride was good, the audio worked very well, the boat departed and arrived on time

A very informative cruise thanks to the audio guide, on a boat perfect for this tour, wherever you are you can see everything! Warm welcome with a warm welcome drink (December 25), we are delighted with this walk, we are a couple of 60 years old, with young adult children.

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

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.

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.

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 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.

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

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!

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.

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.

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

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 s...

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.

The thermal baths were amazing, our favourite was the outside ones but we wished both of them were hot as the one with the seating in the middle and the current was cooler and we would have wanted to sit in it longer if it was as lovely and hot as the other outdoor one. Don’t bother with the Palinka museum, we decided to go as it was only a few feet from our hotel and we had some time to kill before going to the airport. It was very underwhelming, the interactive stuff would have been good if...

We loved our trip. very relaxing once we were in. A little confusing with 'picking up the tickets' as it's the same desk that you buy normal tickets from. All of the private cabins were in use when we got there so they offered a locker instead which was fine. need to take your own towel and flipflops as advised on the ticket info.

Great place to visit whilst visiting Budapest even in the cold of winter. While this is a day pass I believe you may have to stay within the baths to obtain this (I may be wrong) while leaving we had to hand our wrist bands back. A cafe is located in the baths. Outdoor baths were amazing but if you like to achieve cleanliness I wouldn’t recommend the indoor thermal suite as there was a let me say horrible smell. The sauna was also amazing to visit.

A really good experience, the pools were so warm and when the sun was out - it was so nice to be outside in the fresh air! Great to have a cabin to change in and store clothes too. (it was only a few EUR more) The only negative thing was the queue to get the entrance wristband was huge and so it took about half an hour to get into the spa! It was a Sunday lunchtime, so maybe it was just a busy day? Would definitely recommend this though, so unique.

The baths are iconic and are a must when you’re in Budapest. Took away a star because we purchased 4 day passes with private changing house. When I checked in the man said “you have 4 rooms, one family only needs one room”. So I took his advice, and despite paying for 4 rooms we got a key to only one changing room and we could not all fit. The rooms are designed for 1-2 people max. So we had to take turns going in and changing. So they have my money for the 4 rooms and got to resell the 3 oth...

It was an enjoyable experience, there are many in-door pools of varying sizes to relax in. There are sauna's to detox the body an clean your skin, lovely architecture, food and drink is available at additional cost. The exterior pools are lovely and warm and relaxing with massaging jet streams of water and jacuzzi bubble functions. Great to experience days after sightseeing and just before returning home.

We had such a fun day at the Thermal Baths, it’s definitely a must do if you have a full day, and want to sit and relax. There are lots of different baths to choose from, and they all vary in temperature. Favourite thing about our holiday, and good price for it!

The spas are relaxing after a morning of sightseeing . We did have an issue with our voucher . The number was already used and my name showed as being used that day already. The clerk believed me and worked to resolve ( it did take a good 30 mins of our planned spa time though

Overall the baths were very enjoyable and relaxing. We went in late September so it was not nearly as busy as some of the reviews mention in the summer however it was a little cooler and did rain for a bit. Definitely would recommend checking this out

We had a lovely afternoon just chilling. The sauna was really hot but the steam room was just right. After flying and travelling on Friday afternoon and an early museum start on Saturday morning this was just the thing. Relax in warm waters and even have a drink if you like. I could have easily gone to sleep. We didn't book any treatments but they looked value for money.

Good value for money, made it super simple to get into the spas. Wasn’t able to make the testing unfortunately but it was in a good area. I would recommend going in peak summer, will be busy but it was overcast the day we went so didn’t stay as long as we could have on a sunny day

Super easy & straight forward if you follow the steps: go to cashier 3, “Hungarian Koncert” as you present the tickets. We got the cabin which was great! I had read the review so packed the following: - swimming gear - flip flops - towels - sunscreen - water (you can refill it everywhere) Swimming cap only needed in the big pool with lanes so didn’t bother. Easiest way to access is with the Metro - my 12 year old was able to easily navigate it! It is a few min walk from the entrance to the ba...

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 beer s 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.

We had the craft beer cruise. From reception to service everything was great. There were 5 small different beer s and 1 bottle of water per person and some snacks. The tour lasted 2 hours, the ship was big and you could go outside at any time. In the travel time of 2 hours I would have wished for more sights. Tram no. 2 runs this route in 20 minutes. With the live music and the beer s, all in all a successful trip.

Incredible! Would totally repeat it again. The boat was great, it was easy to find them, the service was great. Good music, great wines and beer s… The views was just amazing!

We got there early anf sat outside. We were disappointed once we realized that we weren't going to even hear the music since we sat outside. Inside you can't get the great pictures. If I'm not mistaken you may have to pay extra for a window seat but If you sit outside to get the views you will not get the entertainment!The only time you can hear it is when you go to the bar. So it depends on what you want. If you get the unlimited drinks they are limited to only wine, champagne and beer .

Budapest at night is beautiful from the river and this is a nice boat. The only is you are paying a bit extra for a glass of Champaign which isn't worth it and the marketing states that the trip is two hours but actually you spend most the first hour at dock.

We really enjoyed this cruise! We bought the package with 2 cocktails (or 3 beer s) so me and my boyfriend were able to have something we enjoyed! The views were amazing and the entertainment on board was very fun

That a perfect fair for this money! We had live music with dances of profesional dancers. Ship is big and you can outside to enjoy the view. Other than this you have your table when you can enjoy the bar drinks and food. Really, for this price is PERFECT!

A bit awkward at first, as you first have to exchange the voucher for tickets in the office in the city, then you go to the boat with a guide and then crowd around the next boat with a hundred other guests. The table is then assigned to you. The explanations in English via loudspeakers are also difficult to understand, since it is quite noisy inside due to the bar operation etc. Nevertheless it is a very good offer for the price, you can see a lot of the city, the journey takes 90 minutes, th...

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.

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

Beautiful cruise in magical Budapest at night. We took the formula without a drink and sat inside as it was cold. too bad the musicians circle around you playing to get a tip, otherwise it would have been very relaxing

Superb cruise, 90 min allows you to fully enjoy the Danube and the different landscapes! Possibility to have a drink during the cruise and the prices are very correct. I highly recommend because the cruise is well worth the 8€ unlike some at more than 20€.

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.

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.

Easy to find meeting point through the app. Outside the building there is a sign indicating the meeting point. I went in and they gave me tickets for the tour. At 3.30 pm our guide arrives and accompanies us to the pier for departure. A beautiful 1 and a half hour tour that reaches the last bridge. Suggestive is to see that from the light of day, the buildings and bridges around 4.30 pm begin to light up giving a breathtaking sight. The speaker explains only in English. There is bar service a...

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 glad...

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.

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.

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.

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

it was really not worth the money. we bought a ticket 50eur for the kid and there waa nothing that she could eat. even for us there was no variety. out of 6 dishes almost all were vegetables

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.

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!

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!

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

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.

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.

A lovely evening overall. Would totally recommend the dinner cruise

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

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.

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 cruise was very enjoyable and seeing the beautiful buildings on the Danube all lit up was breathtaking. Music was quite good and entertaining. Service was very good. The ship itself was pretty nice. Food was pretty mediocre but the glass if Champaign was a nice touch. Overall enjoyable.

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

We selected a different Port and it worked perfect! Right in time the boat arrived with a Captain and a second person. We started at 8 pm and saw the city by night. Cocktails were great and not expensive. Music was great and we danced on the boat - just my little family. Experience was perfect and we will come back and book it again! Nothing to complain, only enjoy!

It was a nice experience, but a long walk to the departure pier from the parliament

nice trip, exactly like described, crew on board is very friendly :)

The boat came on time. Very nice captain and crew. Highly recommended - TOP Very happy to repeat!

I booked it for me and my companion in the evening - very romantic! And the staff is super nice and really helpful. Would book it any time again

This was a great activity. I loved that it was private. The boat was nice and the city of course is amazing.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

"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 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.

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 se...

A really lovely way to see Budapest. The music a nice accompaniment. Drinks were very reasonably priced. We didn’t bother with food. Had a great night.

Mine was the night cruise with just welcome drink @10PM. The whole programme was well organized and I see few reviews saying that there's not enough space (two dining areas and a top deck) or not more than one drink provided for free. Well, it depends on how much you pay. It's clearly mentioned while booking. Moreover, it's not a "long" walk, around 500-600m only. Overall, it was a superb experience! Keep up the good work :)

Absolutely astounding. A short walk to the Dock led us onto one of the most luxurious boats I have ever seen. I paid for dinner and the cruise and my partner and myself were led up to our own table and given champagne. Once the cruise was underway the food was opened up and all of it was lovely. Traditional Hungarian dishes and a cold desert table. Despite it being a buffet there was more than enough food and it was all cooked well. We were more than happy with everything presented. The music...

Very good, in the offer is included a glass of tokay and then another glass of your choice (soft, champagne, wine, water) I advise you if it is not too cold to take outside because the places near the windows are reserved or take if late arrival. I advise you to come early

I was really disappointed by this evening which is a shame because all of the reviews were really good. I don’t enjoy massive boat trips so wasn’t aware that what seemed like at least a few hundred people would be onboard. You meet at the Danube and then are briskly walked to the boat ( this was a complete shambles, no on the tour group had a clue where they were going or what the location of the boat was) would have been much easier to just meet at the boat. The cruise itself was fun for the...

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.

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 s...

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.

We had booked a driver from and to our hotel, perfect solution when it finishes late. The lights and monuments were amazing, and we could take very beautiful pictures. The boat is quite long and you can circle all around on the deck and sit if you want to rest, outside or inside. The Hungarian orchestra is lovely too. A wonderful night!

We went for the cheaper option which excluded the food, so I cannot comment on that aspect but the live music was exceptional. What a fabulous violinist! Fun and familiar tunes played, so your toes will be tapping along. The boat is quite lovely. Clean, attentive staff, good drinks, immaculate toilet facilities and a lovely large open deck on top so passengers can get those fantastic nightime shots of the city at its best. Happy to highly recommend.

Reallyyy good value for money and was so easy to book and find on this website. The boat was really posh and had so many levels to it. It was raining hard on the night we went in Budapest but we still wanted to go and sit on the outside. We then discovered that there’s is an undercover hut outside but for better pictures you can go to the back or front where there isn’t a cover but is still seats on the deck. We then discover the very top of the boat which wasn’t covered but you could get lov...

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

Very nice boat, old but nice and quiet. Great views and Very good cocktails. We enjoyed a lot.

This was great to see everything at night but service was very slow, we were only able to have 2 out of 3 drinks on offer as we waited over half an hour for our first one. The waitress did admit the table service was something new they were trying and it wasn’t working so advised us to go get our drinks ourself. But of course by this time we only had just under 40 minutes left.

Great tasting drinks, lively music & environment. The staff was very friendly. It was fully dark by the time we left but all the buildings along the river were lit up beautifully. Definitely worth the money!

Really great! We went on a 37 degree day (probably about 30ish by the time we went at 8.30) and being on the water really cools you down. First cocktail the line was long but the rest you got served pretty much straight away. Lights were beautiful, vibes were great. Be there early to get a front row seat, we wish we did.

A good evening enjoying Budapest from the Danube at Sunset. A great selection of cocktails included in the ticket, with some snacks available to purchase.

good cocktails, very good value for money. great view we were out at sunset. Impressive illumination of the city especially of the Parliament.

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

Good range of standard cocktails to choose from, quality was an ok standard (similar to an all-inclusive holiday but not as good as the ones you can get in the city centre). Cruise went up towards Margaret Island before heading back south towards the petofi bridge. These cruises were advertised at around €11 when we were there so maybe worth considering looking at options when you arrive.
