Great Boat Tour - We did a night tour which left at 2200 and returned at 2300. It was great. We got awesome views of the Parliament Building, Castle, and bridges lit up at night. I definitely recommend if you're looking for a Danube boat tour.

Gorgeous views on evening cruise - A great one-hour evening cruise up and down the Danube showing all the main sites and history of this beautiful city. Good value for money - yes, it was a little crowded, but that testifies to the popularity of the cruise. You can download an audio guide which was helpful in explaining the main sites. Much praise for the friendly and attentive staff - Kitti and Gabriella - who took time to speak to us. It was lovely to discover one of these young ladies had visited our home country of Scotland! A must-do activity on a visit to Budapest.

No nonsense boat trip - First time in Budapest with family and we read a lot about boat trips down the river Danube. The choices is vast and difficult to filter out the one we need.
This one is found on TripAdvisor. €7 per persoon is a good deal for a boat trip. No Prosecco, no drinks, no 4 course dinner and no live performers. 1 hour boat trip with download app for automated English guide.
The online booking is easy and no hidden costs. After the payment you receive the QR code / voucher by mail. The pick-up point is shown in the mail and it is right next to the metro station. Checking in is easy by scanning the QR code.
The audio guide app had some hick ups. Make sure you switch on the usage of GPS or the app will not automate the playlist along the route. Bring your headphone or some sorts with you to hear it.

A floating skip - It was like floating down a river in a weatherspoons noise and no guide and unless you get an outside seat it’s a waste of time
