A good way to see the Budapest River Danube sights at night - We pre-booked this short nighttime cruise down the Danube prior to our stay. The starting point was a little bit confusing to find as the embarkation point is on the Buda side and we were on the Pest side. Metro line M2 took us to a stop right outside the 1b pier. We arrived 30 minutes before the departure time and there was already a queue. It is a very efficient boarding process and once on board and seat selected, we took a drink from the bar. The cruise is one hour and you do get a great view of the Parliament Building and other sites like the Buda Castle as you gently sail down the river. Definitely recommended as part of a City Break itinerary.

Just average - no audio - Could not get the audio to work. It had to be downloaded and no headphones were provided. Great sights though and boat arrived on time.
