Really nice trip around the river, spectacular views. The boat is spacious and everyone had their own table with easy access to take photos. Unlimited drinks! I saw other boats that looked over crowded but this one was great
really great evening once we found the correct pier : ) very attentive staff and the drinks flowed as described
Great value for money in a relaxed environment. Staff excellent, friendly and eager to serve at all times.
Great facts, great songs, great top tips!
Great experience. Good views of the city landmarks, the ship was very comfortable, and overall was an excellent trip!
Amazing experience. Boat trip on the Danube with amazing views of Budapest and unlimited great drinks. I highly recommend.
Great Experience, boat isn’t too full and the waiters are very good. Get amazing views of many major sites and get unlimited drinks right to the end.
My wife and I booked the Unlimited Prosecco, Beer, Aperol, and Limoncello Spritz Cruise through GetYourGuide for our first evening in Budapest, and it was an excellent experience. The unlimited-drinks offering was genuinely honored, and the cruise represented great value for the money. The staff kept the drinks flowing throughout, which made the experience feel generous rather than overly restricted or promotional. The real highlight, though, was seeing Budapest illuminated from the Danube. The nighttime views were breathtaking. Parliament, Buda Castle, Fisherman’s Bastion, the Chain Bridge, the other bridges, the sporting complex, and the many landmarks lining both sides of the river all looked spectacular from the water. It was a wonderful introduction to the city and one of the best ways to appreciate Budapest’s architecture and scale. I would highly recommend taking this 75 minute cruise at night, especially for first-time visitors.
This particular cruise was on a small boat. Probably 60 people at most. I don’t know whether it was because the river water level was low or it was a weeknight in the summer or whatever. The enclosed downstairs the boat had no air condition so sitting down, there was definitely out of the question. The upstairs probably had enough seating for 3/4 of the people which made it kind of first come first serve for a table with chairs. The staff was very friendly and the cruise was just about the right amount of time to see Budapest at night. For the price it was a pretty good experience.
Really lovely vibe on the river. Amended booking time very easily as original time was 20.45 and the landmark lighting was down to conserve energy. So went for 19.30 booking. Audio guide very interesting but not intrusive. Bottomless means bottomless; no sooner had I finished my drink it was refilled by the Booze Ghoul. The spritzers were also lovely especially the Hugo Spritz. Nice chill vibes, loved seeing the sights and waving to the other boats on the Danube! However - the meeting info says to go to Akademia 3 but the boat docks from 8A. This was really confusing and meant we were nearly late. Maybe check that all the info matches because it was really confusing! Great tunes though!
