Dinner cruise on the Danube with folklore dance and live music

4.5/5
57 reviews

At night, Budapest turns into a romantic, illuminated town with the mighty Danube reflecting the lights. Take part in a 2-hour romantic ship cruise down the Danube and admire the sights from the river while enjoying a buffet dinner and live music entertainment.

It's the perfect way to try some of the local dishes while listening to live music by three members of the Rajkó Folk Orchestra. The performance also features a traditional Hungarian instrument, the famous 'cimbalom'. The combination of string instruments and the cimbalom provides a uniquely Hungarian, unforgettable harmony and atmosphere on board.

During the performance, you'll have the chance to request your favourite songs to be played by the artists.

Dinner menu: soups (Alföld style goulash soup, Seasonal vegetable cream soup), salad (Mixed salad with pesto dressing, Pasta Salad with yoghurt dressing, Cucumber Salad), main courses (Turkey meat stuffed with fruits with gravy on top, Traditional beef stew, stuffed cabbage Hungarian style, Vegetable casserole with Rice and Peas, Vegan letcho with eggplant and zucchini), garnishes (Dumplings, Roast potatoes with parsley, Rice) and desserts (homemade strudel selection, Somlói Cream dessert).

    Honestly this was the best experience I have been on. I booked this excursion for myself and my son who is 3. I mainly booked it for myself however my son loved it just as much. The staff were outstanding and exceeded my expectations, all so nice and couldn’t do enough for me to make sure we both were enjoying. The live music and folk show was amazing, and interactive. The food was good even my son ate a good amount. Overall very accommodating and the highlight of my trip.

    Great experience had by all and a good way to catch a glimpse at all the beautiful buildings along the river. My advice would be to go to the later meal so that you can experience the building with their lights on (makes it more magical) but staff were lovely and very helpful
