We appreciated the Danube cruise, it was an easy way to view the sunset on the iconic Danube. I suggest to arrive early, seat close to rail, order your favorite drink, and let the Danube waters take you dreams.
You will not perceive time going by. Overall, it was a nice experience. BTW, waiters wer...

Don't pay for this dinner, very expensive, you can find the same traditional hungarian food for much cheaper price. There are other cruise rides for $20 that include drinks, and you get to take nice pictures of the Parliament, Castle, etc., then go to a nice restaurant with a much better dinner for ...

Very good and good service need to Explain during the cruise what you see and what is happening in Budapest... The trip left at a time when we did not see the palace lit up because we were on the other side of the Danube in the dark.

Waited for 35 minutes before we left,joining instructions aren’t clear…pontoon 1 is actually Pontoon 2 for the boat!
Ushered into seating,then told you can move when we set -off! Interrupted diners during their meals upstairs to go outside for the views.

Exactly as described, a 1 hour cruise along the Danube River. The boat left promptly at the stated time, and although the previous cruise looked very busy on disembarking, there was plenty of room on the 9:40PM cruise that I went on

Very small upstairs deck. Couldn’t get space and needed to sit downstairs where you can barely take proper photos.

I have been to Budapest several times before, but this is my first tourist visit. I think that the Danube cruise is a great way to start getting to know the city. Buying tickets was easy and efficient, directions for finding the ship as well. The lady who checked in at the entrance was very kind and...

The boat is a little crowded. There are sits at the 2nd floor with open air where in some of them you get see a good view, and those who don't manage there are sits in the 1st floor where there are windows and it's harder to get the view.
Buy the tickets that enable skipping the line to get faster a...
