Budapest: Unlimited Prosecco, Beer & Aperol Spritz Cruise

Josephine_M, Apr 2026

Great way to see the sights with a drink. 🥂

A great way to see the sights along the Danube. The drinks were continually on tap, plus there was beer if you wanted it. The audio was very informative, with good music in between sights. Super sight of the Parliament lit up at the end. Easy to get to from the Metro. The staff were very friendly. Very good experience.

Budapest is special

My sister and I had the best experience seeing Budapest on the tuk tuk. Greg our tour guide had the best way of explaining about all the sights. We learned so much more about the history of Budapest. He took us to everything we wanted to see and more hidden gems we didnt know about. We felt overjoyed and happy with our day. Budapest is stunning! But Greg made it more alive and special. We highly recommend. Thx Greg for going above and beyond.

Do not miss this unique experience.

I am 66 years old. Everything hurts sometimes. My knee hurts from running to make a connection to Budapest. My hips hurt. But after I sat in these magical hop beer infused thermal waters of a 2,000 old spa - nothing HURT! Plus terrific Hungarian beer on tap all you want as you soak and pretzels. It was just me - and I’d do it again in a heartbeat. Friendly helpful staff. Do not miss this unique experience .

Budapest Danube Cruise and Dinner Options, Live Music and Dance

Vishal_K, Apr 2026

It was a lovely cruise to...

It was a lovely cruise to end our first day in Budapest. The staff were really nice and welcoming. And the artists were awesome. The musicians and dancers also spent time individually on each table. The food was good as well where we tried Hungarian dishes. I wish if there was more variety but that was a minor point given all the things this cruise had to offer.

A Morning in the Country

We had a wonderful morning on this tour. Our guide was Peter who was very knowledgeable and extremely friendly. We done about 40 minutes out of Budapest to 2 wineries.

Wonderful chance to see the countryside!

Horseback riding tubing and blue hole combo

This was an exciting and exhilarating tour!! Once in a lifetime for me. I loved the horseback riding and the horses were good and listened well. The tubing was fun and relaxing and you get wet. Water was cold but doable. The blue hole was amazing and I felt like a daredevil a was definitely a bucket list!! All the lifeguards were very skilled and balanced with their feet to help you cross the strong water currents. Our tour guides Jody and Adrian were kind funny and caring and kept our belongings safe in the van. This excursion is a must do!!

Budapest Sip and Sail Danube Cruise with Unlimited Prosecco

John_S, Dec 2025

A fun way to see an amazing city

A very nice and fun cruise up and down the Danube which is a great way to see this stunning city. Staff was friendly, boat was nice,drinks were flowing, but I would suggest getting to the boat dock and in the line early as there wasn’t a lot of seating. One other issue was and I’m not sure if this is the app’s fault or the company who operates the tour, but there was no meeting point listed. I had to send a message asking and a few hours before boarding they responded with the location.

Best Budapest Tour!

Robi and Martin were exceptional in the service they provided. They were friendly, very knowledgeable and helpful. It was quite an informative tour! We recommend it to anyone who wants to avoid crowded buses and get close to the Budapest sights. They accommodated seniors with mobility issues, walking slowly with canes. So much fun in the Tuk Tuk!

Dinner & Lights - Budapest Dinner Cruise

Nancy_S, Sep 2025

An Enjoyable Way to Spend An Evening

Silverline Cruises does an excellent job! When we first entered the boat we were greeted warmly and shown to our table. There were white tablecloths throughout and the tables were spaced appropriately apart given the number of people on board, yet providing a sense of intimacy. The music was lovely and not too loud as we’ve experienced in the past. The menu and food were very good! It was a multi course dinner offering choices on the entree and dessert. But the best experience of all was the lights of the city that come on while you’re on the water. It was an unforgettable experience!
