    It was a beautiful experience. The illuminated Parliament is spectacular. On the boat, unfortunately, there was not all the free space on the open-air roof, only half of it, so not everyone could look out over the river or take pictures without the presence of other people. However, the monuments could still be seen well

    Beautiful cruise on the Danube taken at 7 p.m. on March 8 when it was already dark so you could see the illuminations of the major sites in Budapest, from Freedom Bridge to the Parliament. Great atmosphere xbecause the lights off give way to photograph the sites without the reflections. Great bar on board for a drink

    It was good, the view was spectacular, but I booked it with an audio guide and we weren't given one, we just went on a boat watching without knowing what we were looking at all the time

    I really enjoyed the tour that the cruise takes and appreciated being able to see the monuments from a new perspective. Only thing we couldn't take advantage of the audio guide we paid for because there was no qr code on it and when we tried the site it didn't work.
