    The cruise at evening time at 6.30pm was the perfect timing to see the views with daylight and the night view when the lights come on. The drink we got with the booking was a great addition while enjoying the views.

    It was super nice the attention of the staff and live the experience of traveling the Danube at night and see the city from another point of view, which I always saw in travel programs on TV in my country Chile and on youtube totally recommended to do this cruise, because if you do not live that night experience is as if you had not gone to Budapest. Totally recommended, thank you.

    From booking to reaching the location and experience was just wonderful. Night views are spectacular, one just can't afford to miss. I had a complementary drink with my booking , was commendable - didn't even have to lift a finger .
