Full description
Explore Budapest by land and water without the need to change vehicles on this floating bus tour. See the best sights of the city from a comfortable bus seat, first along its busy streets, and then from the water of the Danube. Roar with joy as your bus takes a dive in the Danube, the iconic river of Budapest. Admire the views of the elegant city while being gently rocked on the rippling waves. After the watery adventure, get ready to soak in the sights from the deck of a luxury coach. Climb back onto the river shore and find yourself once again in the hustle and bustle of the busy metropolis. Instead of choosing between touring the Hungarian capital on 4 wheels or marveling at the imperial buildings from the deck of a pleasure boat, enjoy the best of both worlds.

I chose the 50 minutes trip, it was long enough and I saw a lot of tourist spots. The guide spoke English, German and Hungarian but don’t worry because you will receive headphones where you will hear details about tourist spots in your native language. The journey on the Danube lasted around 20 minutes and it is enough The main attraction it is of course the moment when the bus jump in the Danube. I liked it a lot

Beautiful experience!! It was amazing to be seated comfortably on the bus as it went from land to water in a matter of just a few minutes!! I definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to do something alternative to the usual boat cruise!!

Driving a bus into a river is a huge event and a great attraction. The only shame is that there is only one place to enter and exit the water, so the bus has to go back to the entry point after the trip on the Danube. If there were another option for an exit, the city tour could include something from the Buda district. But we really liked it and it is absolutely recommended.
