Budapest Danube River Candlelit Dinner Cruise with Live Music

Glide along the Danube for two and a half hours while a candlelit dinner is served and live musicians play. The boat passes the floodlit riverfront that earned Budapest's banks UNESCO World Heritage status back in 1987.

What the evening looks like

Legenda Cruises runs this dinner trip from Dock 7 on Jane Haining rakpart, on the Pest side of the river. You board a glass-enclosed panoramic boat, so the views stay clear even if the evening turns cold, and the cruise drifts past both sides of the city. Buda Castle sits above the western bank, part of the Danube riverfront and castle district inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987, and the Széchenyi Chain Bridge, the first permanent crossing between Buda and Pest when it opened in 1849, lights up as the sky darkens. Dinner is served by candlelight while live musicians perform on board, and the full run lasts two hours and thirty minutes. The price is shown on the live booking page rather than fixed here, since it can shift with the season and the seating option you choose.
