The cruise up the Danube at sunset was absolutely stunning. We were welcomed on board with a refreshing juice or sparkling wine. The historical tour could be accessed through your phone so bring earphones if you want to listen in. It was really interesting. The views were just stunning.

The city looked so beautiful lit up . The tour was an hour long and we got to see some fantastic sights. We were welcomed on board with a refreshing drink. The boat is lovely to look at, clean and the seats are comfortable. If you have earphones for your phone bring them if you are interested in listening to the history of the city. If not you can still listen through your phone .

Sunset tour with stunning views. Very relaxing and fun way to spend an hour. Had a drink on arrival. We were unfortunate to not get a seat at the side of the boat, but we’re able to walk around to get the views.

This is one of the best experiences that we had on our trip. We made sure that we booked it prior to going, but they didn’t charge us until approximately 2 to 3 days prior to the trip. We chose the cruise, which was beautiful with the buildings all lit up. Great pictures. It really wasn’t an hour and we got to see everything. We were given a glass of champagne as we walked onto the boat. It was an overall great experience. Get there early to stand in line if you would like a seat.

Great cruise. Amazing views. I highly recommend it so you get an upclose of the tourist attractions. We passed under the bridge, passed parliament, statues and I mean, what better way to see all these places. Also the crew was a delight.

Beautiful and comfortable tour along the Danube. Staff were attentive, it started to shower a bit and they brought us all blankets. The sparkling wine as we got on was a great touch, and the audio tour was very interesting. Perfectly timed for the sunset, a highlight of the trip!
