Danube Sightseeing Cruise

Spend a pleasant hour on board a ship in Budapest, sailing between the splendid sights of Buda and Pest with a sparkling cocktail, a beer or a soft drink in your hand. The Budapest panorama has been part of the UNESCO World Heritage since 1987.

The EVENING SIGHTSEEING CRUISE is even more fascinating: a show of sound, view and light on the river. In a romantic candlelit atmosphere you can enjoy the wonderful view of Budapest bathed in light.

For individual travellers we recommend the guaranteed programs, such as the “Legenda” cruises. For groups of more than 15 people it is better to rent a private ship: it is cheaper, you enjoy it more with your own group, you have more space and freedom, and you do not have to adjust your program to other companies.

Ask for more information about prices for renting your own ship.

Cruise with or without dinner (program of “Hungária Koncert”): from 19:00 to 21:00 and from 22:00 to 23:30.

The Budapest panorama was added to the UNESCO World Heritage list. Join us for a unique Budapest experience: while admiring this panorama you can enjoy a delicious meal on our ship. The Danube, this mighty and important river that rises in Germany, flows through many capitals on its journey to the Black Sea. In Budapest it runs majestically through the centre of the city, creating one of the finest panoramas on the continent. The Danube embankment treasures the old and embraces the new; the historic mingles with the modern. We would like to invite you to see our capital at its most romantic.

Budapest has many faces. This vibrant city calms down a little at night, the lights come on, and a new city emerges from the twilight. We created this program for those who would like to enjoy the wonderful view of the city bathed in light in a romantic candlelit atmosphere, with a romantic dinner on a boat.

The meeting point is the Duna Palota, a neo-Baroque building from 1883. After check-in our hostesses accompany you to the ship (a 4 to 6-minute walk).

You will be welcomed on board one of our air-conditioned or heated ships, which takes you on a one-and-a-half-hour cruise with a warm buffet dinner.

The dinner is prepared by Hungary’s only Gault & Millau-rated chef, Klöter Gregor-Grex. A guide is not included in the program. You can also book the cruise without dinner, with drinks only (a glass of champagne and one more drink: a soft drink, wine or beer). The cruise starting at 19:00 has live music.
