This is a unique and active way to explore the historical Budapest form the Danube river. You don't have to stand in the crowd but enjoy the fresh air and the beautiful sights along the way. We paddle in a super safe raft boat so the adventure is suitable for all ages and manageable without any paddling background.

An incredibly great experience! Our guide was so friendly, helpful, and told us so many things about the city on the tour.
Gyuri was fantastic at giving us a great tour of Budapest via the Danube, giving us great information and making it a very memorable experience. We went as a group of 5 and loved every minute. Really recommend this as something slightly different for your trip to Budapest.
My 18-year-old son and I really enjoyed paddling on the Danube. It was a very nice and active way to see the city. The experience was well organized, safe and fun.
Really fun trip on the Danube. Our guide was great giving us information and asking questions and also took a bunch of photos as well which we really appreciated this. We have gone Kayaking many times and white water rafting but the difference on this trip is that the river doesn't move too much so you have to do all the heavy lifting. And when we go kayaking, we kind of like to "float and chill" to give ourselves a break. But this tour, you're paddling the whole time and the river doesn't do you too many favors. So make sure you're prepared to paddle by eating before and being hydrated. But overall it was a great and unique trip with really cool views of Budapest's biggest attractions. And though there's tons of dinner cruises and whatnot on the Danube, not many people can say they've gone rafting on the river! But glad to say that we can!
If you are looking for a fun adventure and a unique way to see Budapest, this tour is for you! My wife and I had an amazing time paddling and floating down the Danube with Gyuri as our guide. Gyuri was fantastic with communication pre-arrival and shared a lot of great information during our paddle. He was easy to chat with and the paddle itself is not overly strenuous. It was fun to quietly glide and paddle along, with Gyuri explaining the history of Budapest and the various landmarks, from the unique vantage point of a raft on the Danube. We saw countless packed river cruises go by and it felt special to know we were doing something a bit more unique that we know we will remember! 5/5 recommend.
We totally enjoyed every bit of it. Our guide, Gergo, was very experienced, friendly and he made it very exciting and relaxing for us. Also, the communication from the Gyuri prior to time, giving us direction and all that was reassuring.
Gyuri guided us on a custom-made day trip down the Danube for my stag-do. Gyuri and Nikki were so lovely and patient with us, we really had the best time!! Would definitely recommend and hope to see them again one day!
Gyuri, our guide made the tour so enjoyable. The views were amazing. We were a group of 6 friends and had a lot of fun. You will get to see all the popular ancient spots from the river. Weather was also so pleasant. Gyuri took us to a really cool place for drinks as well! I think this was a very memorable moment for all of us during this trip! Absolutely recommend 🙂
It was beautiful and relaxing rafting at the Danube River and seeing all the beautiful views during the 2 hours trip. Gyuri was so helpful and helped us with all the changes making sure we do the rafting during sunny times avoiding the rainy time in the evenings
We went for the family trip, parents and two kids 11 and 14 years old. Outstanding experience with reliable guide. Magnificent views of the city. Super stable boat, both parents and kids were happy. Thank you for safe and amazing trip.
