“The 8.20 pm cruise was ideal as the lights of the city turned on around 9pm. We arrived 40 minutes early to be in a good place in the line to get a great view downstairs as all the windows were removed. The left side of the boat had the best views especially on the way back when the lights were on”
Danube dinner cruise in Budapest with Hungarian folk music, dance, buffet dinner, and lit-up Parliament and Buda Castle views.
“Be in the line at least an hour before if you want a window table. Even then our host wanted to place us on a middle table beside buffet counter with many empty window tables so please insist on getting it. Queue up for food very early as food gets over in 10-15 mins and they take a long time to replace and sometimes refuses to replenish. Maybe better to take a normal cruise which comes at much lower rate and have dinner at a good restaurant.”

The boat was very clean. The servers were very friendly.”

“A must do when you get to Budapest. We booked the 6pm trip. Got there around ten minutes before. We were welcomed with a glass of prosecco each or you could have had a juice. We sat inside as it started to rain but you could still see everything and it was very cosy. Some of the boats doing trips are really big and some looked like party boats. This however was a lovely relaxed trip with friendly welcoming staff. We ordered another drink each and some chips and pretzels and that was enough for the 1 hour journey. When I am back in beautiful Budapest I will certainly book…”
