Additional Information
Enjoy the fabulous scenery of Budapest on a one-hour boat tour (55-60 min cruising time) on the historic Kisfaludy Paddle Steamer! Step aboard the elegant, black and gold boat and immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the Hungarian reform era. As a replica of Lake Balaton’s very first steamboat, Kisfaludy will transport you back to the 19th century and make you feel as if you are sailing on a real steamer from that time period!
As you embark on the tour, find a seat that suits you best and savor a refreshing welcome drink of your choice (a glass of sparkling wine, beer or soft drink). Marvel at some of Budapest’s best sights, such as the Hungarian Parliament, Buda Castle, and Fisherman’s Bastion.
Make sure to explore the exhibition in the salon which offers insights into the history of navigation during the reform era.

Great boat trip on Danuby in Budapest. Recommend! - Great boat trip on Danuby in Budapest. Excellent facilities. Very modern boat. Wonderful weather. Great commentary (in 30 languages). Glass of champagne to welcome us. Helpful friendly staff. Saw all main riverside venues. Only 12 pounds each!! (at time of writing). Extremely good value. Allowed you to stop off at Margeret Island for a walk as long as you like and catch whatever is next boat back (every 45 minutes). Highly recommend this trip particularly on a sunny day! Also had orange and limonade on way back!

AN ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE EXPERIENCE - Beautiful experience, Budapest in the evening, illuminated and seen from the Danube is a spectacle! Very kind staff. The evening was very beautiful with a pleasant temperature. The chosen time was a little crowded and we barely found a place outdoors, so I recommend avoiding the 7.30-8.30pm time slot.

Tour with 110 and praise! - One of the most beautiful boats for the Danube tour.
Impeccable cleanliness, courtesy.
We took the last tour, the one at 9pm, recommended if you want to see the city lit up.

Book Duna - The lady standing at the dock was so lovely she was selling tickets along with her colleague. We arrived early and she brought us two stools to sit in whilst we waited. The trip itself was superb comfy seats open deck got some beautiful views, plus a free Prosecco. Worth every penny.

Stunning evening cruise - A very special tour which we thoroughly recommend to see Budapest beautifully flood lit. The Parliament building was spectacular.
The only improvement would be to have a short commentary to point out significant landmarks.

Very good - Everything was OK. I think it would more convenient if drinks were more. Additionally, we would be more happy if the waiting queue wasn't 1 hour despite the online reservation we had done.
