Popular Dinner & Lunch Cruises in Budapest

The tour was very interesting! A taxi picked us up from our hotel to take us to the bus. The bus was super comfortable! The seats were more like sofas rather than the usual bus seats. We left on time and managed to do the whole tour on time and without any issues. The locations that we visited were absolutely beautiful and we could not stop taking pictures! It was truly a marvelous tour. The only reason why I could not give this tour 5 stars is due to our guide Helen. She treated us as if we were kids and she behaved inappropriately during the trip. We did not ask questions because she will not give you a straight answer - she starts talking and talking without answering questions. We started to avoid her because she gave us a big headache. She did not stop talking (crap) for 8 hours straight. Also, as far as I know this was an English speaking tour, but because there were 2 people (out of 21) who were Italians (who understood English), the guide kept translating the tour in Italian.

It was well reviewed and it lived up to this. Promptly seated, drinks arrived quickly, follow on orders too due to good staff levels. We had 4 course meal and it was very good. Cruised back and forth the principal stretch of the Danube giving good night-time views. We were allocated a table on the small top deck, ok and quiet. If you want more people and the live music ask for the main deck, more of an atmosphere - perhaps. All in all, pleased we did it and think we chose the right outfit - a good event for Budapest.

We had already booked this event last year 2017. As was the case last year we enjoyed very minute of it. Budapest by night as seen from the river is always a pleasurable event. As was the case last year we were very well taken care of by the young ladies serving our dinner and drinks. We left the boat very pleased and satisfied with the event. Definitely a highly enjoyable event and value for money.

This is a nice way to see the sights of Budapest from the river. It was well organised, the staff were very friendly and attentive. I was a little worried about the food having read the reviews but I need not have worried. It isn’t cordon bleu but is it of high quality and nicely presented. The piano battle is a bit cheesy but piano music as a back drop to the night cruise was perfect.

One never knows quite what to expect is tourist events such as this one. But once aboard the experience was quite pleasant, and the food and service was quite good. Best of all, of course, was the romantic view at Budapest at night - in spite of the rain.
