Lovely Cruise - Really enjoyed the 7:00 PM timing. Could experience both the day and night scenes in Budapest.
Dancers and musicians were cheerful and engaged the crowd in a number of ways.

Great Evening on the Danube - This was a very pleasant and relaxing evening all round. Starting with the buffet meal of different Hungarian dishes that we got to try to the amazing views as we sailed up and down the Danube River. We enjoyed the music and the traditional folk dancing. All in all a really good evening.

Good but nothing more. - The welcome was good, staff available, however regarding the meal which was correct, the fact of taking place in a buffet style quickly leads to an anarchic side, if some people are respectful others do not really respect the queue formed initially by customers and arrive and force their way in front of others, who in turn have little choice in behaving in the same way. The dishes were good nonetheless.
