The Budapest cruise tour was absolutely magical! Cruising along the Danube at sunset, we enjoyed stunning views of iconic landmarks like the Parliament, Buda Castle and Chain Bridge beautifully lit up. The atmosphere was peaceful and the commentary gave great historical insights. Perfect way to take in the city’s charm - relaxing, romantic and memorable. Highly recommended for the first-time visitors or anyone wanting a different perspective of Budapest!
The boat pick up place was at Dock 42, probably a 15mins walk from the nearest tram station. Its exactly opposite of Margaret Island. It was a 1 hour boat ride, and no matter which side youre on the boat, it goes both ways so youre not missing out on anything. Got a welcome drink, either a juice or a champagne. Its a worth it experience especially to see the light illuminating the Parliament building at night
The trip is relatively short and fast…! The wine is great with good seating, got a chance to have a great chat with someone on the boat and connect ;) overall great experience, except the boat ride is short like 30mins
