The Parliament from the water after dark is the reason most people book. These 15 differ on the hour they leave, the length of the loop and what is included — all of it priced, with the sunset departures flagged.

90-minute Danube dinner cruise in Budapest on Gróf Széchenyi with goulash, fresh lángos, live music, and Prosecco by top sights.

Cruise the Danube on the Gróf Széchenyi for 1.5 hours with live music, open balcony views, and a peek at the engine room.
“The cruise itself was good, but finding the boat was not easy. The email gave a pin on Google maps that was not the actual location, after opening the app there was a different pin about 10 minutes walk away. The only instructions were to find a boat named "Gróf Széchenyi". We could not find the boat so asked a tourist information stand who said it was docked behind another boat. If the only identifying information is a the name of the boat and that cannot be viewed, how are passengers supposed to find it? We nearly missed our sailing, but the cruise itself was nice.”
Budapest Danube party cruise on MS Stadt Wien with DJ, drinks, bottled water, and a free party bus to the after party.

“The tour goes by quickly but you can’t beat the view of Parliament. In July it’s not dark til almost 9 if you want the light on the badge and building. 1 pizza per person was way too much for us. We didn’t prefer the taste or the pizza or beer (or options for beer)”
2-hour Danube cruise in Budapest with live Hungarian folk music, dance lessons, and three drinks, plus night views from the river.
“We thoroughly enjoyed our Danube cruise with folk dancing and drinks. It was really good fun and the performers were very talented. The food which other guests had booked looked good (it was a sit down meal served to their tables rather than a buffet). 3 Drinks each were included and it was all decent stuff. Prices of drinks on board were reasonable too. The views of Budapest by night were amazing too. All in all good value for money and a good night out.”

Every kind of day out in the city, and the best of each.
