Dinner and Cruise with live music
Budapest panorama was added to the World Cultural Heritage List by UNESCO. According to their justification, the banks of the Danube at Budapest also illustrate the various periods of the capital's history, and furthermore the city has one of the world's outstandingly beautiful urban cityscapes. The World Heritage site inscribed in 1987 stretched from the Chain Bridge (Clark Ádám Square) to the Technical University on the Buda side - an area containing the Gellért Baths, Mt. Gellért with its Freedom Monument and the Citadella, and also the building ensemble of the Buda Castle.
Budapest has many faces. This vibrant city calms down a little bit at nights, lights are lit up, and a new city comes out from the twilight. We created this program for those who would like to enjoy the wonderful view of the city swimming in lights in a romantic candlelight atmosphere, and have a romantic dinner what is prepared by one of Hungary’s best chef, Klöter Gregor-Grex, on a boat with live music.
The salon music is performed by 3 members of the Zoltán Kodály Awarded Rajkó Folk Orchestra, including the world-famous violinist Zsigmond Vidak who is the owner of the Bronze Merit Cross of the Hungarian Republic.
We will take you on a 1,5-hour-long cruise on one of our air-conditioned ships. Afterdinner you can also admire the panorama from the open upper deck of the ship.
Our Dinner & Cruise programs with live music are also available without dinner. If you book a cruise only with drinks, you can enjoy the beautiful night panorama over a glass of champagne and another glass of soft drink, wine or beer.

“Remember to take a night cruise!”
We had a dinner cruise on the wintery February. Dinner was buffet styled with two alcoholic drinks on the lower deck which is covered, hence, we were protected from the chill. We had typical Hungarian dinner from goulash to strudels for desserts. There were some entertainers playing strings and singing. Above the deck of the cruise, we had an opportunity to take great pictures of the Parliment house, the Buda Castle and other night scenes of Budapest, braving the cold. Coming from a tropical country, it is an eye-opener to see ice sheets on the river and ice-breaking when the cruise passed through the river. The cruise lasted about an hour and half. The food was forgettable but the experience of the cruise on the Danube river was exceptional!
