A wonderful and delicious evening with a beautiful view - I had my 10 year old grandson with me and it was one of the highlights of the trip for him. He really enjoyed the string quartet and the dancers. Everyone joined in singing with them. It was quite fun. The food was excellent and view on the cruise was magnificent.

Budapest Hungary, a city where time stopped. - Budapest, the capital of Hungary, is a fascinating city known for its impressive Baroque and neoclassical architecture, reflecting its rich history and cultural heritage. Located on the banks of the Danube River, it is divided into two main areas: Buda, with its characteristic Buda Castle and cobblestone streets, and Pest, home to wide boulevards and iconic Andrássy Avenue. Among its architectural gems are the Hungarian Parliament, a magnificent example of the Gothic Revival style, and St. Stephen's Basilica, which combines classical and Renaissance elements. Thermal baths and historic bridges, such as the Chain Bridge, complement the charm of this city, considered one of the most beautiful in Europe.

Food!!!!! Absolutely Awful...ough! - Nice boat, music was very good, band played from virtualy the very start continuously to the very end. No hungarian dancers, just a couple walking around in traditional dress. Food!!!!! Absolutely Awful...ough! Tasteless glopp. Drinks, beer and wine good, thought we would be charged but included. A 3.5 rating realy, saved by the music.

Tourist trap with good moments - Food was average but was only warm not hot. House wine as described as excellent when being given as free drink as part of package, when ordered a bottle to drink with meal same waiter said it was not very good and tried to upsell. Entertainment was too intrusive - kept coming to table for either photo or to play music for tips. Also selling cd of music. Felt like evening was setup for tip or to take extra money from guests. Final point care required when boarding boat as location is non-made path and is very muddy and slippery - sensible shoes required.

A very disappointing reality - A cruise with dinner on the Danube, the service seemed nice on paper yes but ... in fact the cruise is ridiculous: a small loop between 2 decks and that’s all – barely 45 minutes of navigation at a snail’s pace. The buffet meal is ok but without any varieties. And especially I thought I had folk dances (see photo) - not at all! It’s an orchestra of the 3rd age who also makes the tables one after the other to get a tip - I really felt like I was fooled!
