Great experience - Nice helpful staff, comfy chairs, space for baby stroller. Boat ride went through everything we needed to see and audio guide was good. Bring the headphones to connect to your phone for better experience

Paddle steaming on the Danube - It was great doing the cruise on a small, historic vessel instead of the monster modern ones. Very welcoming crew and plenty of room for everyone to get a good view.

Excellent Experience - The ladies at Dock 10 were very helpful. They provided umbrellas to help with the fierce heat. They provided assistance to passengers who were feeling unwell in the sunshine.

Superb experience - We booked a night cruise which was fabulous. Friendly staff and welcome drink. The cruise was fantastic; one hour tour along the Danube which showed all the most iconic sites of Budapest with audio guide in different languages. Unforgettable experience. Giacomo Venditti

Lovely views of the City's most beautiful landmarks - I highly recommend taking the cruise around sunset! Seeing the lights turn on all over the city, and the bridges and landmarks literally lighting up, was magical.

A picturesque trip up the Danube on a paddle steamer - Just the nicest way to see Budapest. From the river. The lovely option is to book a trip on one of the paddle boats. Lovely indoor and outdoor (covered and uncovered options) give you ample vantage points to see the sights. These are smaller vessels, but that adds to both the charm and the sense of exclusivity of the ride. An hour long is plenty of time to see the major sites. An added bonus is QR codes on each table to take you to a link with an audio guide for each venue on the river. What a great idea! You can also order drinks and food while you sail along or get your order taken by the attentive staff. Thoroughly recommended!

Good but could be better - The tour was decent enough. However only being able to use the audio tour option if you had a working phone with your own headphones is disappointing. Granted I should have read the small print but the whole point of the trip was to learn about the city. Tourists have to relay on WiFi or somethings don’t even have a phone or headphones. There should be an option for a really audio tour. Also there was not hot drink options while on the trip. The boat was lovely though.
