Discover Budapest on this short, 50-minute no-frills sightseeing cruise. Create unforgettable memories of the UNESCO heritage panorama and the main landmarks - depending on the time of day - lit up and get the best views.
Climb aboard the boat at Dock 10 port close to the Pest side of Margaret bridge. Main public transportation options (even the scenic Tram 2) is within 2 minutes of walking. Prefer a walk around the Parliament before or after the cruise? Just a short walk.
Sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride.
Commemorate all the main landmarks of Budapest, including Buda Castle, Chain Bridge, Citadel, etc. and naturally the Parliament as the boat returns to the port.
The boat offers both a closed compartment and an open sundeck - with cover against rain - enjoy the sights and feel the breeze. Seats are taken in the order of arrival, therefore suggest arriving around 15 minutes before departure.
The tour is not guided; enjoy the city more like a local from a floating coffee house.
