You'll have the chance to join a free 30 minute English and Spanish speaking live guided walk at the island. All daytime cruises include a stop at the island, allowing you to get on and off freely. However, the final daytime cruise - 18:30 - is the last one to stop at the island, so if you disembark, there won’t be a return boat available afterward.

2.00It was a lovely boat with glass ceiling and sides. The commentary was through headphones. We found it very confusing and were questioning each other what building or was being spoken about. The staff were nice and sis their jobs well

Great daytime cruise

5.00I hope this is the correct company. I took an hour daytime cruise with Legenda and had a great time. The price included 2 refreshing drinks which was great after a hot day of walking. The boat was clean and the staff were professional. I took the 3:30p cruise and glad I did because the next cruise time had a lot of people. While sunset cruise were marketed as the way to go because of the beautiful lights, I got to enjoy the peace and space at 3:30p. The dock is #7 and they are closer to the Elizabeth bridge.

5.00Great way to see Budapest during the day! The views of the city were beautiful, the included drink was a nice bonus, and the audio guide provided interesting information about the landmarks. A relaxing and enjoyable experience.
Night time boat trip

5.00Very easy to book, we went for the evening, just as the city lights were coming on. We made the mistake of joining the queue too late, we didn't realise that three boats/three departure gates were in play at any time. However, we got good seats in the end and enjoyed the journey. The city is fantastic at night, the boat was ultra quiet and smooth and the staff were amazing.
Best when done later at night

3.00Unfortunately we booked a cruise that we thought would be late enough for us to see the city lit up at night. Some this was summer, the sun did not set until 9 pm but we did have lovely and sunny views of both riverbanks. The cruise was just long and informative enough. Don't expect much from drinks. Overall, I recommend it!
Relaxing Hour On The Water

5.00A lovely relaxing hour spent on the river taking in the scenery from a different viewpoint. Audio informative. The best view of the Parliament. All of this complemented by a glass of wine and a refreshing fresh lemonade.
Must do boat tour

- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00An excellent boat tour that provides an overview of the city. The audio guide is informative but not overbearing. Having a drink of choice and then a lemonade included made the experience more enjoyable. Pier is easy to locate and lots of times throughout the day. Definitely worth it.
