Great value - A pleasant 1 hr cruise up and down the danube. We sat at the front , ordered our cocktails. As it was a pleasant evening, we went outside. We then received the wrath of the passengers sat at the front who felt entitled to their view, by banging on the glass telling us to move. I kind of ignored them, but signage needs to go up, people will be stood outside.
You get 2 cocktails which were enjoyable and to see the sights at night was great. Recommended

Great experience was organisation could be better - The organisation to board the boat from Dock 11 was unorganised, people queuing for half an hour in rain before it starts but some people that booked these trips were let in quicker after walking to the front to ask but this wasn’t signposted or communicated to others who should have had the same opportunity. Person on the dock gate giving out the bands and checking your name didn’t bother communicating with anyone in the queue. When you get onto the boat it seemed stress free, if you booked this tour you show your band given and given two tokens to pass to the waiting lads when you want to order a cocktail. There was good choice of cocktails but they took a while to make. The hour trip is worth the sightseeing and to take lots of pictures and have a good time with friends/partner/family. It doesn’t have a guide that tells you what each attraction is but you can get an app to help with that. Bartending staff were great and very polite, always around even on top deck.
Tip - Wrap up warm if you want to go on top deck but below has heating all the time. Make sure you order your next drink with enough time (maybe half way through the first) as it takes time for them to make and be brought to you with the sheer amount of people on the boat all ordering too.

Very good route, fine cocktails - It was a very nice evening! The cocktail selection is great! The cocktails we tried were really good, at the 'Dark Sex on the beach' we tasted more like juice (?). The route is really very well chosen, sometimes the ship could have been slower, but that is at a high level moaned.😁 What was a bit strange was that small children (about 5-10 years old) were riding along and sat right next to us.

Could have been better! - If I had to choose another cruise , I would! The only thing letting it down was there was no audio. So when we were looking at buildings we didn't have a clue what they were.
The two cocktails were nice.
We were basically the last people on the boat so we didn't have good seats, which ended up leading to us sitting at the back. So we didn't have the full windows. So our view wasn't good. So if you do go on this boat,make sure you get there early to pick good seats.

Not exactly ideal... - The choice of cruises on the Danube in Budapest is vast and quite uniform. The three of us chose a "minimal" option with Silverline (pier under the Elizabeth Bridge): 1 hour of sailing and a cocktail on board.
The organization is good, the friendly staff (Christian at the ticket office very clear and helpful), appreciated the availability of a clean bathroom available while waiting for boarding. BUT..... the tables and chairs where to sit on the boat are uncomfortable. The feet that hold the table are placed in such a way that you have to, literally, fit under it and the space between the two is such that you are all sticky. This did not allow us to enjoy the spectacle of the illuminated city in relaxation. That's why I wouldn't recommend it.

Nice cruise but cocktails... - Nice cruise but cocktails were below par. They didn’t have half the ingredients for some of the cocktails in the list. A bit disappointing for the price.

When you book this... - When you book this experience on Viator, you’re given a bracelet to mark that you have gotten the drinks. It took the staff an unusually long time to give me my bracelet which meant by the time I boarded (despite arriving at the dock early) all seats on the upper deck were taken. I sat below and tried to enjoy the sites through the grimy windows with light reflection/glare issues, but it made the experience absolutely not worth it
