Unforgettable Budapest: Danube Dinner Cruise & Folk Show

Lovely way to spend an evening on a delightful cruise. Well run and great service from welcoming, helpful staff. Buffet food was very appetising amc surprisingly plentiful as they kept topping everything up and you could go up as many times as you pleased and food hot. Entertainment with traditional dancers and musician was good and so nice they came round each table to entertain you. Highly recommend and gd value.

Great way to spend your time in Budapest and see the city! Grat fun, Staff was great, atmosphere was lovely. We had a great time and would recommend it to everyone visiting Budapest.

Dinner was great and on a boat that was very smooth. The dancing and music was fum and entertaining. The string trio and the dancers even stopped by every table for a more personal experience. The food was also very good with both enough meat and non-meat options.

An unforgettable experience and the highlight of my trip to Budapest — absolutely worth the £70 per person. From the moment you step aboard, you’re welcomed with a glass of Prosecco and shown to your own private table, with most guests seated by the window for uninterrupted views. As the cruise sets off along the Danube, you’re treated to breathtaking sights of the city’s most iconic landmarks beautifully illuminated at night, including the stunning Hungarian Parliament Building and Buda Castle. The boat itself is elegant and well-furnished, creating a comfortable and refined atmosphere. The all-you-can-eat buffet features a delicious selection of local Hungarian dishes, with attentive table service available for additional drinks. The live band and dancers truly elevate the evening. The performers move around the boat, interacting with guests, taking photos at each table, and even playing song requests — a thoughtful and personal touch that makes the experience feel intimate and special. An outstanding evening from start to finish — highly recommended.

Very nice! Staff was very welcoming, checking if anything was needed. Nice music. Also the dancers were interesting,

Absolutely brilliant from start to finish. Organisation great, boarded quickly, shown to seats, made very welcome. Music set the atmosphere and played all cruise. Food plenty and good quality and with arrival drink plus two “free” further drinks included in the ticket price excellent value for money. Views were spectacular. We loved every moment.

The boat was comfortable, the food was lovely (but not for fussy eaters). There was audio descriptions for the sites but we didn't find out about this till after the trip had finished. Our waiter was rude - he had a section of tables and serve all but ours. We had to ask the glass collector for a drink and then he came. The musicians and dances were good.

The staff were lovely and very helpful. Especially Martin who kindly found a phone charger for us, so we cud get back to hotel. The food I wasn't keen on but there was choice. The music is brilliant. These guys are extremely talented. Very attentive to the costumers.

I booked the 3 course dinner, which on the description said vegan option was available, and discarded the buffet option exacly due to that. When it felt like dinner should start to be served, I had to ask two waiters (the first one had no idea what I was talking about) that informed me that was no vegan 3 course dinner (or non vegan whatsoever) and took me to the buffet to certify me about what could be vegan. He was very helpful. However we felt that it was an expensive experience, due to this buffet situation.

The views of Budapest’s monuments are breathtaking at night when the lights are lit with unobstructed views from the ship. There was an amazing quartet of a violinist, violist, bass player, and traditional Hungarian cimbalom who plays amazingly well. As a family of musicians ourselves we could tell they played together for a long time and they play at a professional level. At the end, they went table to table, and no matter what piece a table requested (classical or modern), they were able to play it. Amazing! As if the evening was not entertaining enough, there was an outstanding father daughter duel who performed traditional Hungarian dances. Impressive fancy footwork for the gentleman, and amazing balancing skills for the young lady (go watch it to see what I mean). What an unforgettable evening to remember Budapest by. (be sure to bring some change to tip the performers, they did not ask for it, but are most certainly appreciative of it, and definitely well deserved. They work very hard for their living !)
