Full description

This daytime cruise leaves from central Budapest and follows the river past the bridges, Parliament and Buda Castle before circling Margaret Island. Multilingual narration explains the landmarks, and a welcome drink plus a seasonal second drink are included.

Where the timetable and river conditions allow, passengers can step off for a walk on the island and return on a later sailing. Daylight makes the architecture on both banks easy to see and photograph, and the roughly 75-minute loop suits a first orientation to the city.
