    Horrible experience departing the boat! I highly do NOT recommend ever using them! Although the cruise was pleasant but less then an hour, the boat was not properly secured to the pier. As we were a party of 4, our last companion fell into the Danube River as the boat drifted apart while he was departing. They had no pole, life jackets, nor seemed to know what to do for our companion who was holding to the cement dock for his life. They never called the police nor seemed to know what to do. Finally one of the two crew dove into the water after my companion's wife pleaded for someone to help. It took them 12-15 harrowing minutes before they were able to to pull him onto the boat. The crew and company now deny that they didn't have safety float devices. I seriously suggest you never use this company!

    Excellent service. Boat was reliable and smooth. Private round trip to Szentendre was great and lasted approximately 30 minutes each way with 2 hours there.

    We are a small group of 5 (56-65yrs young) ladies, we had a brilliant time on this trip, we booked an 8pm start in April. Wine and beers available, lots of photo opportunities (we were lucky with weather) and then a fun, faster return. We definitely recommend!

    Friends of ours recommended that we do a river cruise on the Danube at night. When I asked the concierge at our hotel for an intimate river cruise, they recommended this company. We had this luxurious boat all to ourselves. Matt and David (our host and driver) welcomed us onto the boat with some champagne. Then the cruise began. It was 9pm so the sun had set and the city lights brightened the dark sky. Budapest must be seen at night from the river. It is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. The cruise lasted an hour and on the way back to the dock, the guys asked if we were happy to pick up some pace-we did not hesitate. The boat starting speeding and it was so much fun - a real adrenalin rush. We had such a great time, and Matt and Dave were lovely guys. This outing was certainly one of the highlights of our trip. If we can afford the private experience, go for it. You won't regret it.
