A nice experience to put on your itinerary

I was there very early, and no one ever came out to meet us…People came much later and went right on the boat, and most of them were vaping. Eventually I did the same since no one ever came out. Apparently they told me they do not come out and check everyone before boarding. So that is also a safety concern, anyone can get on board. Also the steps and the floor is not well lit for wayfinding.

Great experience.

The cruise was a pleasant and enjoyable experience, and the staff was very friendly and welcoming. My only recommendation would be to improve the instructions for guests who purchase tickets online through Viator. It would be helpful to remind customers that they must first visit the front office to collect their tickets before boarding. This small improvement would make the experience smoother and more convenient for everyone. Overall, I enjoyed the cruise!

Amazing sight at night - don’t miss out !

Good to arrive early to try to secure good window seat. Drink (wine) was mediocre - but the experience / views made up for this! A night time cruise where the City really lights up to being its best

Great in the evening once dark

Good 60 minute tour, especially in the evening once it was dark. Audio guide was good. Would recommend.

Great Experience!

It was quite chilly when I went but the views from the top deck are phenomenal! A great way to see some of the impressive structures in Budapest and seeing everything lit up at night was magical. The audio included helpful history and context of what we were seeing. Great experience!
