We went on an unseasonably cold September evening. Easy to find the docking point and well organised boarding and seating. Trip was fine but would have been massively enhanced if there had been a commentary to tell us about the beautiful buildings, bridges, castles etc.like they have on the Hop-on tourist buses.
We had a wonderful night experience in Budapest! The city looks absolutely beautiful at night, especially with all the buildings and bridges beautifully lit up. The atmosphere was lively and enjoyable, and seeing Budapest at night was truly memorable. Definitely a must-do experience when visiting Budapest!
Me and my partner absolutely loved this cruise, we decided to go for the time when the sun was just setting and the views could have not been any better. The staff were very friendly and polite.
A wonderful open-air boat trip, comfortably seated and very relaxed.
If you're looking for a pleasant, quiet, and not overwhelmed ride, this is the best option I saw there. It's not a party boat; it's a peaceful boat to enjoy the beauty of Budapest.
They don't play music, there are no flashy lights that are distracting at night, and even when full, everyone sits up high and no one bothers anyone. It departs promptly, and the time and route are perfect.
We took the night cruise in August, and it was unforgettable.
It was great experience, everything is as described. Leaving on time, friendly staff and easy to find.
A nice, relaxing cruise along the Danube. The upper deck is accessible to everyone. Highly recommended.
We had a good time the boat was on time they don’t have bar you can take snack and drinks by yourself
My wife and me liked this boat tour very much! No annoying loud music or any other distractions, just spectacular views of Budapest and chance for romantic being with your beloved. Nice audio tour, clean restrooms, possibility to bring your own snacks and beverages, AND the best price in the market - just perfect experience. Thanks, guys!
Exactly what we were looking for! A nice quiet ride on the Danube, not super crowded so we had a great seat on the side of the boat. Saw all of the sights and we were able to bring our favorite drinks on board.
A kind, welcoming crew and a beautiful cruise !
A little boat, so no big crowds. We had to ask for the audio guide, but it was immediately given to us, with more information and anecdotes given by a crew/guide member !
You will need to have your own headphones, though.
Loved doing this at night. Skip the booze cruises and go with this ship where everybody can fit on the top of the ship and everyone has a great view of the city. You can bring your own alcohol if you want to have a glass of wine and the quality of the tour in the people on it is just fabulous without the extra booze running around
It was cold and no one told us that there is a possibility to go down inside.
The view was nice but still no story was spoken on the microphone 🎤
10/10, it was such a beautiful experience!! I would come back again and again if I ever had the chance again, that’s for sure. 🐙
Basic as expected. No frills. A chair and a 50 min sailing trip. No guide no food . Again as expected and what I paid for.
Worth mentioning the boat leaves and arrives from the Buda side
The cruise was nice and Budapest in the evening is wonderful with all the lights and the beautiful monuments. I gave three stars because I chose this cruise because there was the audio guide that they did not provide us instead.. So if you are looking for a cruise where there is all the information about what you are seeing, do not choose this one.

More economical cruise than others, it leaves from the Buda bank, between the Chain Bridge and the Sisi Bridge. Enjoyed it to the fullest, you can bring something to snack on and they offer an audio guide in different languages via a QR code on your phone (bring headphones). Unlike other cruises we saw, with music, lights, and people lining up to order at a bar, this is a quiet, calm cruise made for enjoying what matters, the very light of a city that, at night, is unique. Very pleasant staff, I would recommend it without hesitation.

Docking pier on the Buda side, perhaps due to the language barrier we didn't notice any signs or placards that could give us certainty that we hadn't made a mistake. In any case, pickup and end of the tour were on time. We preferred outdoor seats to enjoy the natural light reflected on the river and the monuments at sunset. There is no audio explaining the route, but a link to access with your smartphone is provided before departure. Satisfied

Everything perfect.
What was booked matches the activity exactly.
It would only be necessary to have a little more lighting on the pier when the ride is at night.
Auto-translated
Everything great. The tour very entertaining and enjoyable. 100% recommended. The views from the Fisherman's Bastion are impressive.
Auto-translated
Excellent experience and being able to bring your own drinks. It is the right tour to see from the Danube.
Auto-translated
We left almost at 8:50 PM and it wasn't 8:30 PM when we were already docking, not even 50 min, we couldn't see any monument lit up, since they turned them on at 8:30 PM, in other words, nothing nocturnal about it.
They also didn't offer any audio in Spanish.

Everything was magnificent, punctual, and kind; we had a great time, everything was perfect, nothing to say, we will do it again when and if we return to Budapest.

The ship departed on time.
The trip was very quiet and relaxing.
Perfect for enjoying the evening and the view of the Parliament.

Punctual and with seats for everyone. Great experience without spending much. We did not use the audio guide.

I signed up for the excursion because of the guaranteed spot on the terrace, but being able to bring my favorite Belgian beer was a huge plus; I highly recommend it!!
