I personally love cruises, so I couldn't refuse to try this one. And I was glad to see that there's quite a lot of space on the deck, you feel comfortable and absolutely not like sardines in a can. And the view was wonderful, the light was put everywhere, so we enjoyed the whole cruise. My recommendation: take a hoodie or something like that even if it's summer. At night it's a bit chilly.

The boat trip was very nice in the evening, it is important to make sure that the lighting of the sights goes out at 23:00. We had booked the tour at 22:20 (1 hour) so the last 20 minutes were unfortunately unfavorable as only a few private buildings were illuminated. It is recommended to book the penultimate tour in the evening.View original review in GermanVanessa

Las vistas son preciosas pero pensé que la vuelta sería más larga para el tiempo acordado, se parte en el parlamento y la embarcación llega un poco más allá del castillo de Buda y luego se regresa.Karina

Cruise Along the Danube
Marvel at the wonderful sights of Budapest on the Danube as you enjoy this 1-hour cruise. See the hidden nature of the riverbanks from this sightseeing cruise that one can only see from the water. Bridges over the River Danube were built in many rounds. Take in the fascinating architecture of the Chain Bridge and the Margaret Bridge. Passing by Margaret Island will allow you to see locals walking and jogging on this calm and relaxing favorite getaway within the city.
Sail Past Famous Bridges
The evening sightseeing cruise will continue under two famous bridges, including the Chain Bridge with illuminated guardian lions on either street side. See the beauty of the Buda castle, the residence of Hungarian Kings, and the opulence of the Matthias Church, characterized by its neo-Gothic style. On the Buda side of the river, you can see the statue of Szent Gellért after whom the hill was named. On top of the hill, you will see the beautiful Hungarian woman, Citadella, standing proud with her arms open. Imagine these sights in the soft glow of the lights at night.
