Budapest: 1-Hour Highlights Cruise with Welcome Drink
Description
Enjoy a beautiful and relaxing introduction to Budapest on this 1-hour, evening sightseeing cruise. See the many famous buildings along the river (the Banks of the Danube is a UNESCO World Heritage Site) with a beverage in your hand. Not guided tour. Experience the city more like a local - the boat functions as a floating coffee house or pub experience with its own bar available during the cruise. The city floats in the floodlight when the time of the day allows that. (As Budapest uses the illumination to commemorate certain events(, like Earth Hour, Fight Against Breast Cancer, national events, etc.) therefore they might appear in different colours or can be dimmed at certain times.)

we had a great experience, the setting was amazing and romantic. staff were very efficient. would go again, the value for money was excellent.
Amazing! I recommend sitting in the very front of the boat at the first level. From this seat, I had excellent views of both sides of the river traveling in both directions. We picked the 10:00 pm tour because we wanted to see the parliament building lit up at night.
A beautiful experience, to be enjoyed just after sunset when the lights of the city and monuments turn on.
Booked this so I could see the big binding with the lights. I was told the lights turn off at 10 and the only other option was 7pm. So I missed the lights regardless. Staff was nice tho just not the excursion if u want to see all the lights
There weren’t enough chairs for everyone to sit outside. We ended up standing the entire time which was not pleasant at all, especially after a long day of walking.
Pleasant hour viewing the city from the river. Good price, and went for the single drink rather than the more expensive endless refill package. How much can you drink in 1 hr....... only negative, dock 42 is quite a trek....
Boat in poor state of conservation, bad drink. Pier location was terrible! Only saved the view of the walk which is beautiful.
We took a night cruise, and for what we paid, the cruise satisfied us, just one small note about the wine offered as a welcome aperitif... It was very poor quality
Pleasant cruise along the Danube. The landmarks look different from the water. If you want to see lights, beware of sunset time
I received an email while heading to the departure dock canceling the cruise for technical reasons.
