Budapest: 1-Hour Highlights Cruise with Welcome Drink
4.1 / 5 · 2,528 traveler reviews




Enjoy a beautiful and relaxing introduction to Budapest on this 1-hour, evening sightseeing cruise. See the many famous buildings along the river (the Banks of the Danube is a UNESCO World Heritage Site) with a beverage in your hand. Not guided tour. Experience the city more like a local - the boat functions as a floating coffee house or pub experience with its own bar available during the cruise. The city floats in the floodlight when the time of the day allows that. (As Budapest uses the illumination to commemorate certain events(, like Earth Hour, Fight Against Breast Cancer, national events, etc.) therefore they might appear in different colours or can be dimmed at certain times.) We do not provide or control city lights, just describes the average conditions customer may face. Use your favourite search engine to check the current status of the city lights.
