    A beautiful boat with live music and dancing to combine with the tour. Impressive Budapest at night. The prices of the drinks were surprisingly cheap. I advise you to book directly with them, the intermediary companies have very little shame and give you a place even if there is none, as happened to us. Fortunately at the counter they solved the problem.

    Amazing view, too bad the boat is closed and you can see too much reflection from the TVs on, the videos don't come out very well
  • St. Stephen’s Basilica

    Skip the long lines at St. Stephen’s Basilica and step into a grand hall with soaring domes, towering marble columns, walls covered in gold-trimmed frescoes, and mosaics depicting biblical scenes. Your guide shares the stories behind the artwork and relics, including St. Stephen’s mummified right hand, displayed in an ornate glass case. The treasury showcases embroidered vestments, jewel-studded chalices, and ancient manuscripts. Ride the elevator to the panoramic terrace, where you’ll see Budapest’s skyline unfold, from the bridges of the Danube to the hills of Buda.

    Budapest Sightseeing Cruise

    Cruise down the Danube River with a drink and audio commentary for a front-row seat to Budapest’s most stunning sights. Pass by the Hungarian Parliament’s neo-Gothic facade lined with spires and crowned with a massive red dome. Across the water, Buda Castle sits high on a hill, a palace complex with Baroque courtyards. As you drift under the Chain Bridge, look at its massive stone pillars and cast-iron chains, a marvel of 19th-century engineering. Sip your drink while spotting Matthias Church’s colorful tiled roof and the dome of St. Stephen’s Basilica towering above the cityscape.
