Superb! - This cruise is amazing value. We were lucky and had a great weather for a February evening. We were seated right close to a door leading outside which was perfect for us. We ordered a bottle of wine to share which was reasonably priced and then spent most of the evening outside watching the beautifully lit buildings. We booked online, and the port was super easy to find with guides out front. Magical experience. Highly recommend.

Zsdfia was Excellent! - To begin with we were slightly underwhelmed as we couldn't see any outdoor space. However the staff explained we could go outside once we were moving. I would like to say a huge thank you to Zsdfia for her excellent service and for arranging a surprise birthday desert for one of my friends even though we hadn't asked. This extra attention to detail is what makes an experience extra special.

Magical, Musical Evening Cruise - Lovely boat with incredible live music. The quartet played a range of music - classical, musicals, traditional folk, film and TV - even some vintage pop. They also offer personal requests, so I was treated to the Game of Thrones theme at my table! We had just the cruise and optional drinks package, as we wanted to go out on deck regularly to take photos, but the cruise does offer meal or unlimited drinks packages. Service was excellent and we were given a complimentary drink on our arrival. Music started at 7pm, the boat travelled 7.15-8.45pm. We disembarked at 9pm. Our cruise was excellent value at £15 each. Prices for drinks are comparable with regular bars.

Great for tourists - Great if you want to see the city in a new light, waitress lovely and really friendly and personable, only gripe is the 'drinks only passengers' musician who will roam and ask where your from and play something from your country, not necessarily your request, then tap his pocket and linger until you tip, not something im accustomed to so felt really uncomfortable and they only played for tips, and maybe 1 song every 20 minutes other will sit and chat to eachother and not play

A Nice Evening Event - It was a good way to see the city at night. The food was good and the entertainment on board was corny.

Not What I Expected - I thought this was something other than what it was. I thought this would be a guided site seeing tour with Hungarian music being played (there’s plenty between Liszt, Ligeti, and Bartok). Instead this was an open bar cruise with music from The Godfather and Fiddler on the Roof. There was no guide or tour and because the interior of the boat is so brightly lit it’s hard to see the actual sites. This was fun for what it was but it’s a tourist trap.
