We had a wonderful evening listening to Hungarian music and watching the traditional folk dancing. The night views along the Danube were spectacular! It was a wonderful way to end our holiday in Budapest. I highly recommend this tour.

We had a wonderful evening listening to Hungarian music and watching the traditional folk dancing. The night views along the Danube were spectacular! It was a wonderful way to end our holiday in Budapest. I highly recommend this tour.
The boat was old, the seating downstairs minimal. The staff were hardworking and kept the drinks coming. Would I go back again? No. I would pay more and choose a more upscale boat. The live music advertised never appeared so I feel a bit cheated.
We arrived as requested to find the boat full of dinner cruise guests. Staff didn't seem aware of the package we bought and offered us something completely different. The music was good but hard to hear as the ship had a pub feel with everyone talking. No traditional dance and only a couple of songs. The cruising was nice so we should have just purchased just that.
Great entertainment! Cruise was very enjoyable. Good selection of cocktails, wine and beer! Would recommend for anyone visiting Budapest.
