A lovely trip up the river. There were only 16 of us on a large boat so we had great seats at the front and lovely views.
We didn’t get an audio guide and the drink was a horrible prosecco, the parliaments had no lights and there was no warning for that
What a fabulous way to see both Buda and Pest from the Danube. You are welcomed on board with a complimentary Prosecco or Orange juice served with a smile. There is also a menu for whatever extra drink you might like. The cruise was done at a lovely pace and the audio guide was so informative. The best value trip you could want. It was so enjoyable we did it twice
Well prepared crew on a historical paddle steamer. The ship was confortabble, the guid was good and easy to understand. On the ship there was a bar with wide selection of drinks.
Thank you for your feedback!
River cruise was excellent. Ship staff really friendly and helpful. We were taken to all the sights for photos, lovely trip
Thank you very much!
This is literally a boat ride up and down the Danube within the main part of Budapest. You are handed wine when you come in. You find a seat and the boat goes. There are QR codes on each table to show you what you are seeing or to order more drinks. I had hoped for a bit more narrative and interactivity. It just seemed like a way to get you to pay money.
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the experience didn’t fully meet your expectations. We do our best to clearly describe what our cruise includes on our website, including the one-hour route with map, the welcome drink, QR code audio guide, and onboard bar, so guests know exactly what to expect before booking. We appreciate your comments and wish you all the best.
We did the night cruise…..it was beautiful!! Audio guide as informative. I recommend going outside for the last bit of the tour for some amazing views. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip.
Me and my family was met with a well prepared trap here at Duna Cruises. As one of the employees of Duna Cruises told, everyday they have tourists, including families with small children, showing up with tickets from tripadvisor, getyourguide and other agents, only to realize kids are not allowed access on a kids tickets. I brought two small kids and booked for my wife and I and our two kids via Tripadvisor. We came 20 minutes before departure, well prepared and ready, but was immidiatly meet by the scam orchestrated by the ticket officers at the entrance to Dock 10. Against our will we were forced to buy additional two adult tickets at the inflated daily price - paid in cash. They had all kind of preproduced material, and asked us to prove they were wrong, or otherwise pay extra or leave with our tripadvisor tickets expiring unused. It is a scam!! It endes up costing is much more than what this sail cruise is worth.
Dear Morten! We can only repeat what we already replied to your Google review: First of all, we would like to firmly reject the claim that this is a scam. We kindly invite you to look at our thousands of positive reviews from satisfied guests. Our policy is very simple: only children under the age of 2 can travel free of charge, as they do not occupy a seat. Just like on an airplane, every passenger over that age requires their own ticket. As you mentioned, you purchased your tickets through Tripadvisor. The Tripadvisor booking page clearly states that only children aged 0–2 travel free of charge, while everyone over the age of 2 requires a ticket. Since your children were clearly older than 2, our colleagues simply applied the published policy correctly and equally to all guests. We are sorry that this affected your experience, but calling it a scam is simply not accurate.
It was a cosy, quiet and beautiful trip, with views of all the beautiful buildings on both sides of the river. Various types of good seating and a nice toilet on board.
Thank you so much for your kind review!
