Overview

Sail beneath all 6 of Budapest’s legendary bridges and soak in the city’s rich history and culture from the most stunning vantage point — the water. Make the experience your own by choosing your favorite drinks, whether it’s a refreshing beer, a glass of fine wine, or a soft drink to enjoy along the way.

Discover why Budapest is known as one of Europe’s most beautiful cities as you pass a dazzling collection of UNESCO World Heritage sites. On the Buda side, take in the majestic Buda Castle, the fairytale-like Fisherman’s Bastion, Gellért Hill, and the impressive Citadella. Across the river, admire the magnificent Parliament Building and the striking Müpa Budapest building, all glowing in spectacular evening lights.

Relax in the comfort of an air-conditioned cabin or step onto the open-air deck for a panoramic, picture-perfect view of Budapest by night. This is more than a cruise, it’s a romantic and unforgettable experience you won’t want to miss.

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
