Wedding night - This cruise was absolutely amazing, and what truly set it apart was the exceptional service. We came here with our family on the evening of our wedding day. Although we were among the last customers to board and initially sat below deck, which was still nice, we would have preferred to be upstairs. Without us even asking, one of the managers brought us upstairs and gave us a special section to sit in. The band was incredible, as you can see in the pictures. They went around to each table, making it feel like they played a personal song for everyone. When they played at our table, it felt as if we had rented the entire boat and band just for ourselves. To top it off, they surprised us with two bottles of champagne to celebrate, which was unexpected but greatly appreciated. Overall, it was an amazing experience. The violin and viola players were unbelievable and added a magical touch to our special evening.

Danube Dinner River Cruise is great - A lovely evening, the 4 course Duck menu was lovely, good sized portions and very tasty. We had a reasonably priced Sauvignon Blanc that paired very nicely. The waiter we had had a great dry sense of humour and kept us very entertained, not that we necessarily needed it as the sights from the river were lovely. This is a really great option as something to do in the evening. It stars are 19:30 and finishes roughly just after 10.

Lovely views - Nice cruise with live music and great views. Would recommend it. We had drinks, not dinner. Only wish it had been dark while we cruised so we could’ve seen more buildings lit up.

Good views, everything else OK - One thing people should know is that all of the different river cruise packages (buffet dinner with Hungarian music, dinner with classical music) are all for the same boat, just different sections. This means the two sets of musicians are playing simultaneously at opposite ends. If you are seated near the middle it is a cacophony. There was also extremely limited seating on the outside deck. Nevertheless, it was a pleasant experience. Nice to see the city at sunset and the music and dancing (from what I could see and hear from outside) seemed great. Just don’t go in expecting anything intimate or fancy.

Nice little cruise - Ship was large but comfortable. Drinks package was OK but I might consider buying just cruise ticket and then pay for drinks.

A nice little trip - Seeing all the buildings lit up at night. Was VERY DISAPPOINTING that there was no explanation of all the buildings we passed while sailing on the Danube.
