There are headphones so it's interesting to hear the history of Budapest although my husband found it a distraction
Great views and a wonderful opportunity to take photos.

Nice boat trip along the Danube. Very clean boat and a nice glass of bubbles whilst relaxing. We went at night so it was lovely to see the bridges lit up.

I went on the cruise when it was dark, after sunset. The views of the city were beautiful. I believe during the day & for sunset the views would be exceptional too. The staff were friendly & the boat was very comfortable to be in.
