Reviews
highly recommended to do when visiting Budapest. do it on sunset so you will get a nice pictures of the place.
Recommended for travelers arriving in Budapest for the first time, the Danube River cruise is an absolute must-experience. It is especially recommended to board the boat at night so you can see the beautiful night view, because it is too hot during the day. Boarding is very easy for this trip, so it is recommended to queue up early to get a good seat!
Please arrive at the pier half an hour before your reservation time. It's warm on the boat, and you can clearly see the night view of both the Buda and Pest districts. I felt it was a great experience and worth the ticket price.
There are evening flights in summer. Because it rains slightly, there are not many tourists. The boat is very spacious and it is very windy on the deck. It is best to wear a thin coat. You can watch the sunset on the boat at 7:20 in the evening. Good experience
It’s a good itinerary. The shipping company has its own app, which allows tourists to listen to the tour guide. The location of the boat is not difficult to find👍🏻
Check in half an hour early to queue up so you can choose your seat on the boat in the morning. The seating area on the second floor is very small and inconvenient to enter. The seating area on the first floor is comfortable. There are meals on the boat that you can order at your own expense. The cruise time is about 1 hour. The boat is quite fast. The sunset will not be until 21 o'clock in June, so you must choose a good time.
It was a pleasant experience. The boat was not overcrowded like the other boats we saw. The staff were also friendly. Highly recommended.
I highly recommend buying tickets for the sunset session; the scenery is absolutely stunning! For seating, I suggest choosing the right side facing the direction of travel for a better view!
The check-in location was clear and easy to find, and the pier number was also easy to locate. The only regret is that I didn't see the Capitol Building lit up at the time I booked, and the trip ended after circling around for less than an hour.
Not bad, but it's a pity that the lights of the Capitol cannot be turned on at 7:20. No drinks are forced, and you have to go up to the second floor to wait for the photo.
