Highlights

Fit Budapest’s major landmarks into a 50-minutes, no-frills sightseeing cruise. From the open sundeck or closed compartment, take in the Parliament, Chain Bridge, Buda Castle, Gellert Hill, and Citadel without frills or hustle. Daytime and nighttime departures offer different views of the Budapest skyline. Board at Petofi ter, Dock 8, beside the Pest promenade (public transportation nearby); seats are taken in arrival order, so arrive early to choose your spot. The shared boat gives you a straightforward way to see Budapest from the water. Use your favorite search engine to check the current status of the city lights. Suggest to arrive around 15 minutes before departure. The tour is not guided or commentated; enjoy the city more like a local from a floating coffee house.

About Budapest

Budapest joins hilly Buda and flat Pest across the Danube, a grand capital of thermal baths, riverside palaces and lively ruin bars.

On the Buda side, Castle Hill holds Buda Castle, the Matthias Church and the white turrets of Fishermen's Bastion, all looking down on the river. The Chain Bridge crosses to Pest, where the Hungarian Parliament Building stretches along the bank and St Stephen's Basilica rises a few streets inland. Gellért Hill and its Citadella give the widest views.

Top-ranked sights in Budapest: House of Parliament (Országház), Buda Castle (Budai Vár), Chain Bridge (Széchenyi Lanchid) .
