This isn't just "old jewelry." The Holy Crown of Hungary has a history more dramatic than a Netflix series—it’s been stolen, buried, lost, and returned by the U.S. government. You will stand in the massive, 27-meter-high Dome Hall, watched over by stoic guards with drawn sabers, to see the crown and its tilted cross up close. It’s the symbolic heart of the nation. You’ll ascend the Grand Stairway, a space so opulent it makes most European palaces look like a DIY renovation. Imagine walking past massive granite columns—of which only 12 exist in the entire world—under ceilings painted by Károly Lotz. Every inch of the walls is covered in gold leaf and intricate frescoes that tell the story of a thousand-year-old kingdom. f you are between 6-24 and have a valid Student Card you can choose the Youth tickets type

Each stop is a mini cultural deep-dive, guided by locals who share not just food, but the stories and traditions that make Hungary’s cuisine so rich. With a relaxed, small group setting, this isn’t just a tour, it’s a shared culinary journey where you leave full, inspired, and maybe even with a few new friends.

Unlimited Prosseccoo, Beer, Aperol & Limoncello Spritz Cruise

David_G, Oct 2026

Great Cruise to do with friends or partner

Great Cruise to do with friends or partner. Best to do it when it is dark as the budlings are lite up and look great. It's about 75 mins long which is just about the right time and you do get Unlimited Prosecco and Beer. Tip for the beer, ask for two beers saves you extra trips.

Michael our guide was...

Michael our guide was funny, knowledgeable and attentive to our group of 16. Vineyards visited provided an excellent overview of their history, production and samplings of their products. Lunch was more than ample of the local Hungarian cuisine and the vegetarian option was absolutely fantastic.

Great Experience

The food tour was an exceptional! There was a range of food selections, all of which were very good. Our tour guide, Flora, was wonderful. She was very personable and her command of the English language was exceptional. Flora told stories that taught us of the deep integration of Hungarian culture in the food scene in Budapest, making the tour all the more memorable. Would highly recommend this tour.

Nice Birthday tour of Budapest

It was a great overview of both Buda side and Pest side. More than I’d have been able to see on foot. Great commentary! Beautiful sunny day. Picked up n dropped off at my hotel. Only downside is I had to pay for two people even though I was just solo. There should be an option for just one person.

Budapest Danube River Candlelit Dinner Cruise with Live Music

Rob_D, Oct 2026

A must do in Budapest

Experiencing the city in the day is wonderful and then getting to see it from the river at night was magical. Absolutely beautiful views of the city. Then there is the four course meal and wine which was beyond our expectations. It was nice to have the entertainment with many familiar songs to complete the night. Book a spot early!

Budapest Danube River Sightseeing Night Cruise with Drink

Andrew_R, Oct 2026

Enjoyable experience, book early!

An excellent trip made all the more special as we experienced it at sunset. The boat is pleasant, stable and the staff polite and attentive. If the weather is good the upper deck provides a good view and there is commentary through headphones with a video. Sadly a number of people left their seats to come up on deck to enjoy the entire spectacle through the screen of their phone obstructing the view for others.

Budapest Sip and Sail Danube Cruise with Unlimited Prosecco

Gregory_L, Oct 2026

Excellent. Well managed quick trip.

A must do if the weather is nice. Can't beat the sights from the water. Definitely a younger vibe which provided good energy, but nothing over the top. They brought the refills to you which was great so you're not standing in line for a drink and missing the sights.

Budapest Danube Cruise with Kisfaludy Paddle Steamer

Kelly_A, Sep 2026

Beautiful, steamboat, with great viewing areas!

Beautiful, smaller boat, with great viewing area areas! I've never been on a towel though so that would be fun. The boat was absolutely beautiful they keep in mind there are no enclosed areas. Although it was very chilly we sat in the back of the boat that had a cover on top and we were not cold at all. We had breathtaking views! This is an absolute must do when you're in Budapest and it was the highlight of our trip!!!!

David_S, Sep 2026

A great evening on the river

We had several options for dinner cruises on the Danube in Budapest. It’s kinda a crap shoot, which one? Well we lucked out. The food quality and service was beyond expectations (for this type of event) but the music and ethnic dancers put it over the top. Overall, a terrific evening on the water, good weather, great views a good meal and entertainment. Our only issue was getting a cab back to the hotel. Book one in advance. We walked 45 min back to our hotel.

Budapest Parliament and Saint Stephen Basilica Combo Ticket

Jean_D, Aug 2026

Fantastic private solo...

Fantastic private solo tour of St. Stephen's Cathedral with Martha! She was lovely, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable. I took on the challenge of climbing all 364 stairs to the panoramic terrace (I'm sure Martha won't forget that!), and the views were absolutely worth it. Martha made the experience feel tailor-made just for me. 5 stars—don't hesitate to book!

Dinner & Lights - Budapest Dinner Cruise

Susan_W, Aug 2026

Wonderful dinner cruise w great entertainment!

There is no need to upgrade for the window view. You can see well no matter where you are once the boat leaves. Lots of opportunities for memory-making photos. The entertainment includes musicians (cimbalom, violin and cello), a singer, and four dancers. Had a great time! We didn't have kids but kid friendly.
