Overview

A 60-minute sightseeing cruise aboard a historic-style paddle steamer, with a welcome glass of Tokaj Frizzante and an audio guide in 30 languages.

Cruise the Danube in style aboard one of two vessels designed after the paddle steamers of the 19th century. A glass of premium Tokaj Frizzante or orange juice is included, and an audio guide in 30 languages tells you about the sights as you pass. From Elisabeth Bridge the boat heads past the Inner City Parish Church, Gresham Palace and the Hungarian Parliament to Margaret Bridge. It returns along the Buda bank past Fisherman's Bastion, Buda Castle, the Rudas Baths and the Liberty Statue. Around sunset the route is adjusted to show the Parliament in its best light. Seats inside or outside are guaranteed but not assigned.
