About the evening boat ride
Budapest knows how to dress for the evening. Take a seat on the river and enjoy the transformation.
As daylight fades, the bridges and waterfront become the backdrop to your own private boat ride. Choose a sunset departure or head out after dark to see the city illuminated, with your favourite music playing and just your mates aboard.
It is a relaxed 50-minute break between dinner and the dance floor. Add sparkling wine, raise a glass to the groom and enjoy a side of Budapest you would miss from the back of a taxi.
How the activity works
- Your guide meets you at an agreed location and accompanies the group to the pier.
- Board your private boat for a 50-minute evening ride.
- Cruise past Budapest’s famous riverside landmarks at sunset or after dark.
- Connect your phone via Bluetooth or cable and choose the soundtrack.
- Enjoy any sparkling wine or food ordered as extras.
- Make use of the boat’s enclosed interior during the journey.
