Budapest
Sightseeing cruises on the Danube, compared: daytime loops, sunset sailings, and late runs past a floodlit Parliament. Most boats leave from the Pest-side docks near Vigadó Square, so check your dock number before you walk over. Night departures fill first in summer.
Experience Budapest from the Danube with this 1-hour sightseeing cruise, enjoying stunning illuminated views, a welcome drink, and photo opportunities for just $15.
