Hear about where the first Hungarians came from, and the facts behind the famous Attila the Hun. As you walk through the city and admire the buildings illuminated with light, you have the chance to ask questions and take photos of the glowing Buda Castle District and the Danube Promenade. Then, if you've chosen the cruise option, give your legs a rest and climb aboard an evening cruise on the Danube. Enjoy a free welcome drink and the chance to see the top attractions from the water.
