1-hour evening Danube cruise in Budapest with a welcome drink, multilingual audio guide, and Wi-Fi, passing Chain Bridge, Parliament, and Buda Castle.
“We had an excellent time on the cruise. The views are amazing. The staff were amazing and the audio description amazing”
A 1-hour Danube night cruise in Budapest with a welcome drink, onboard Wi-Fi, and big-lit views of Parliament and Castle Hill.
“I went on this river cruise with my girlfriend, on Wednesday 21st January. So it was during winter months, it was very cold (expectedly so), so bring a jacket and gloves. But I could not recommend this experience any higher, if you dont choose to go with this provider please still make an effort to go on a cruise with any booking company. It was absolutely amazing, we loved the views and it was a perfect way to start our long weekend getaway. If I was to only do one activity in Budapest it would be this. Overall 10/10👍🏼 (choose the cruises without food to properly take in the moment).”
A 1-hour Budapest Danube cruise from Vigadó tér Dock 6, see Parliament and Castle Hill, enjoy Wi-Fi and English audio, day or night.
“it was a nice tour, but we were mislead. it was shown very clear on the voucher: 1 hour tour. After 40 minutes, it was over. No problem for me, but my kids were expecting to stay longer.”
Budapest Danube sunset night cruise with a downloadable audio guide, photo stops at Chain Bridge, Parliament, Gellert Hill, and Margaret Bridge.
“Tour was nice if you want something cheap and fast. Boat was very crowded so it was difficult to take photos. There was a tour guide app but you needed headphones to listen and it didn't work that well. But still got to see the sites of Budapest!”
4-hour Budapest tour: guided bus highlights, Castle Hill walk, then a 1-hour Danube cruise from Vigadó tér. Air-conditioned value.
“Tour felt very rushed with very little time to take photos. Too much time spent walking looking at building work in progress. Including the Shoes on the Danube would have been better than wasting time in the square.”
A 1-hour Segway ride through Budapest’s core, with training, expert English guide, and fast photo stops by the Danube, Parliament, and Basilica.
“The tour was amazing we were lucky to have a Beka as our guide. Great service and reasonable prices. Thank you guys”
A 1h20 Segway tour around Budapest past key sights like St. Stephen’s Basilica, Parliament, and the Danube memorial, with training and photos.
“I planned this Segway tour as a surprise for my husband's birthday. It was such a fun activity. We enjoyed seeing attractions, learning the history of Hungary, and it was a lot of fun. The guide was friendly, professional, and did a great job teaching us how to operate the Segways. I would highly recommend this experience! Thanks for making my husband's birthday memorable!”
Air-conditioned bus plus a Danube river cruise from Dock 6, with guided stops at Heroes Square, Fishermans Bastion, and key Pest sights.
“Minivan was a little tight but understandable due to the marathon (perhaps don’t offer a tour during marathon). I did like the small group size and the flexibility of the driver and guide to switch up the order of the tour and to always have a plan B at the ready. Hard to see all of the sites, especially if you are sitting in the middle of the minivan. Great tour guide, very friendly and knowledge - able to communicate in multiple languages. I liked stopping at several locations and being able to get out and walk around a bit. Stopping for a coffee is a nice addition too. And…”
Private Budapest BeerBus for up to 15 with unlimited Hungarian draft beer, an electric bus, and big sights in about 60 minutes.
“Horrible tour. Guide did not share any information about the city and just drove up and down the same street for 2 hours. Would not recommend”
Private 1-hour Danube boat cruise from Dock 42, passing Margaret to Erzsébet bridges with views of Parliament, Buda Castle and more.
“C’était top, croisière privé entre amis sur le Danube en journée. Tarif raisonnable, personnel très agréable et pro, bar à bord pour consommer, possibilité de rester à l’intérieur ou de se poser à l’extérieur vraiment sympa …”
1-hour Segway ride along Budapest’s Danube, from Buda to Pest, with guide-led photos and easy training for beginners.
“We took a one-hour Segway tour in Budapest, and it turned out to be a great way to see the city in a short time. The route was fun and easy to follow, and riding a Segway made the whole experience light and enjoyable. The highlight for me was the Parliament Building — stunning architecture that’s even more impressive up close. We also stopped by St. Stephen’s Basilica, which added a nice cultural touch to the tour. Thank you Daniel”
Budapest BeerBus on an electric open-window bus with unlimited Hungarian draft beer and Bluetooth music, past top sights.
“We wanted to see Budapest city and we wanted to have some beers, so why not combine the two? We were waiting for another group of people who booked the same ride, but they didn't show up, so the two of us got a private drive around Budapest! Such a fun way to see the city, pouring beer and playing our own music over bluetooth. FYI there's an option to drink prosecco instead.”
A private 1-hour shooting range in Budapest with English instruction, real gun variety, and a strong safety focus near Nagytétényi út.
“Loved this experience so much i will be taking my partner here next year! Good variety of guns to shoot, good instruction, patient and friendly.”
One hour on a Segway in Budapest, sweeping you past St. Stephen’s Basilica, Liberty Square, the Parliament, and the Shoes on the Danube.
“The tour was fun, we took really good option and we were taken around the Danube river. Our Guide Ernest made sure that we are able to drive the segway by ourselves. He gave us a really good explanation about the city. It was a great idea to take segways we can only recommend.”
A private 1-hour Danube party boat in Budapest for hen or stag groups, with unlimited beer and wine, a shot per person, and big city views.
“The boat was hidden behind a larger boat at the dock. It was very unclean inside and had mops and buckets lying around. We were not asked if we wanted anything to drink and had to ask how we could play music whilst onboard.”
