Paseo bonito nocturno con un espectacular parlamento pot la noche, sólo por eso merece la pena. La pega es que estamos normalizando pagar 25 euros o mucho más por cualquier actividad "normalita" como ésta en cualquier ciudad. Aprender con cultura en cualquier actividad o ver un palacio por dentro es una pasta excesivísima. La globalización ha conseguido que Budapest parezca el centro de Niza aunque te tomes una triste cerveza..... qué pena.

A beautiful evening stroll with a spectacular parliament building, worth it for that alone. The problem is that we're normalizing paying 25 euros or more for any "normal" activity like this in any city. Learning about culture through any activity or seeing the inside of a palace is exorbitantly expensive. Globalization has made Budapest look like the center of Nice, even if you have a lousy beer... what a shame.

Realizamos el tour en un barco acristalado con una visión panorámica perfecta por si llueve, pero también hay una cubierta superior a modo de mirador donde puedes disfrutar también de las vistas desde arriba. Cuenta con una audio guía que va explicando las zonas por donde vas pasando. Una experiencia muy recomendable. Translate this opinion into English.

We took the tour on a glass-enclosed boat with perfect panoramic views in case it rains, but there's also an upper deck serving as a viewing platform where you can also enjoy the views from above. There's an audio guide that explains the areas you'll pass through. A highly recommended experience. Opinion translated. Show original.

Me parece una vergüenza que en la parte superior donde más se ve, solo quepan un determinado número de personas y los demás tengas que quedarse en los asientos inferiores viendo el parlamento y buda a través de un metraquilato. Mínimo se deberían cobrar dos tipos de entrada

I find it a disgrace that only a certain number of people can sit in the upper section, where the most visible part is, and the rest of you have to stay in the lower seats, viewing Parliament and Buddha through a methacrylate. At least two types of admission should be charged.

Los asientos no están preasignados, sino que van ocupándose en orden de llegada. Sentimos si no quedaste conforme con la ubicación del tuyo. Tan solo deseamos las mejores experiencias para los visitantes. Translate this opinion into English.

El recorrido es muy agradable y suficiente el tiempo empleado. Esa salida a las 19h 30 es perfecta para ver el atardecer y el encendido de luces de los monumentos al anochecer. Puede mejorarse lo que explica la audioguia que a veces está desfasada un poco con el avance del barco. El barco es moderno pero tenía algunas butacas que no se podían usar pues o no funcionaba la audioguia o estaba suelto el anclaje al suelo. Los asientos sin estar mal, necesitan mejor limpieza. Te sirven una bebida/

The tour is very pleasant and well-timed. The 7:30 p.m. departure is perfect for watching the sunset and the illumination of the monuments at dusk. The audio guide's explanations could be improved, as they are sometimes a bit out of step with the boat's progress. The boat is modern, but some seats were unusable because either the audio guide didn't work or the anchors to the floor were loose. The seats, while not bad, need to be cleaned more thoroughly. They serve you a drink.

Muchas gracias por tu comentario. Vamos a pasarlo al proveedor para que lo tenga en cuenta y mejore su servicio en lo que pueda. Translate this opinion into English.

El paseo en barco espectacular. Las vistas nocturnas de Budapest son increíbles. Hasta ahí muy bien, el pero....la audioguía q publicitaban en un montón de idiomas, no funcionaba, y el refresco pésimo, pedimos una cocacola y ni sabía a cola ni tenía burbujas.

The boat ride was spectacular. The views of Budapest at night were incredible. So far, so good. The only downside... the audio guide, which was advertised in a bunch of languages, didn't work, and the soft drink was terrible. We ordered a Coca-Cola, and it didn't taste like cola or have any bubbles.

Satisfechos con la experiencia, merece la pena ver Budapest de noche desde el barco, el cual además es muy moderno, parecía una nave espacial, acristalado tanto por las ventanas como el techo y con una pequeña zona exterior en la parte de detrás. Vas con audioguía y puedes seleccionar varios idiomas y te incluye bebida a elegir entre vino, champagne, cerveza o refresco. Lo único que no me gustaron fueron los barrotes de los laterales del barco, que te cortaban la panorámica. Translate this opinion into English.

Satisfied with the experience, it is worth seeing Budapest at night from the boat, which is also very modern, it looked like a spaceship, glassed in both the windows and the roof and with a small outdoor area at the back. You go with an audio guide and you can select several languages and it includes a drink to choose from wine, champagne, beer or soft drink. The only thing I didn't like were the bars on the sides of the boat, which cut off the view. Opinion translated. Show original.

Hemos llegado a las 8:30. No se ha hecho una cola, si no que todos se han puesto en multitud para entrar. Creemos que este aspecto podria mejorar. El trayecto bien; pero la camarera se ha olvidado de traernos las copas de cava. Cuando ha vuelto a subir para recoger las copas, le hemos recordado que no nos habia traido las nuestras. Despues nos las ha traido, pero el crucero terminaba en 5 minutos y no hemos podido acabar de tomarnos la copa. Muy mal este aspecto y un poco defraudadas.

We arrived at 8:30. There wasn't a line, but everyone crowded around to get in. We think this could be improved. The journey was fine; but the waitress forgot to bring us our champagne glasses. When she came back to collect the glasses, we reminded her she hadn't brought ours. She brought them later, but the cruise ended in five minutes, and we couldn't finish our drinks. This was a very bad experience, and we were a little disappointed.

La actividad fue realmente interesante y enriquecedora. Durante todo el recorrido recibimos muchísima información sobre la ciudad, presentada de forma amena y accesible a través de la videoguía. El trato fue excelente. Sin embargo, echamos en falta la presencia de una persona que pudiera complementar la información con su experiencia directa y responder a posibles preguntas durante el recorrido por el Danubio. La experiencia muy agradable que aconsejo a quienes deseen conocer la ciudad. Translate this opinion into English.

The activity was truly interesting and enriching. Throughout the tour, we received a wealth of information about the city, presented in a fun and accessible way through the video guide. The service was excellent. However, we missed the presence of a person who could complement the information with their firsthand experience and answer any questions during the tour along the Danube. It was a very enjoyable experience that I recommend to anyone who wants to get to know the city. Opinion translated. Show original.

Todo bien en general, solo me pareció muy pequeña la superficie exterior del barco (asientos disponibles) en comparación a otros barcos que vi en el momento. Lo que hizo que pocas personas pudiesen subir. Yo logré quedar en la parte exterior pero abajo, que era pequeña. Translate this opinion into English.

Everything was fine overall, except the boat's exterior (available seats) seemed very small compared to other boats I'd seen at the time. This meant that few people could get on board. I managed to get on the outer part, but below, which was small. Opinion translated. Show original.

Primero el embarque fue desordenado no se sigue una fila. Segundo la bebida ejemplo la cerveza no está fría y el vino blanco tampoco. Y tercero la audioguía me está acorde como vacel barco y debería referirse a qué lado hay que mirar. Si Buda o Pest Translate this opinion into English.

First, boarding was haphazard, there was no line. Second, the drinks, for example, the beer wasn't cold, nor was the white wine. And third, the audio guide didn't match the ship's layout and should indicate which way to face: Buda or Pest. Opinion translated. Show original.

El paseo estuvo como lo anuncian. Hubo puntualidad, las bebidas bien. Fácil ingreso y salida del barco. Algo negativo es que el audífono de la audioguia de la persona que me acompañó no funcionó. Se le dijo a una se las jóvenes que estaban arriba pero nunca trajeron otro. Por lo que se perdió la explicación. Translate this opinion into English.

The tour was as advertised. The service was punctual, the drinks were good, and the boat was easy to board and exit. One negative point was that the audio guide's headset didn't work for the person who accompanied me. One of the young women on board was told about it, but they never brought another one. So the explanation was missed. Opinion translated. Show original.

Il giro in battello all' ora del tramonto è davvero appagante per gli occhi ed il cuore. Ottima l' idea di servire qualcosa da bere, suggeriremmo però di farlo all' inizio, prima di far partire la spiegazione della guida (che non siamo riusciti a seguire durante l'ordinazione). Ad ogni modo è stata una delle esperienze più significative del nostro breve soggiorno a Budapest. Grazie Translate this opinion into English.

The sunset boat ride is truly rewarding for the eyes and the heart. The idea of serving something to drink is great, but we would suggest doing it at the beginning, before starting the guide's explanation (which we were unable to follow while ordering). In any case, it was one of the most significant experiences of our short stay in Budapest. Thank you Opinion translated. Show original.

La actividad genial, salida del Barco puntual, muy bien organizado y la gente cordial. Hay una bebida incluida, yo pedí cola y estaba mala, sin gas y no era Coca Cola sino Pepsi. Pero bueno… volvería igualmente porque vale la pena verlo. Si vais en época de frío, abrigaos porque hace mucho frío. Translate this opinion into English.

The activity was great, the boat departed on time, was very well organized, and the staff was friendly. There's a drink included. I ordered a cola, and it was bad, flat, and it wasn't Coke but Pepsi. But anyway... I'd go back anyway because it's worth seeing. If you go during the cold season, dress warmly because it's very cold. Opinion translated. Show original.

El recorrido del barco fue estupendo, muy completo, recorriendo todos los puentes en las dos direcciones y así pudimos contemplar las dos orillas del Danubio con todo iluminado. La explicación de la audioguía fue muy buena, explicando la historia de cada edificio y al mismo tiempo salía en la pantalla. La hora que elegimos fue estupenda, porque empezaba a anochecer y a iluminarse todos los edificios y monumentos de Budapest. Un paseo en barco por el Danubio precioso y muy cómodo. Translate this opinion into English.

The boat tour was fantastic, very comprehensive, passing all the bridges in both directions, allowing us to see both banks of the Danube, all illuminated. The audio guide's explanation was excellent, explaining the history of each building while simultaneously displaying it on the screen. The time we chose was perfect, as it was just beginning to get dark and all the buildings and monuments of Budapest were illuminated. A beautiful and very comfortable boat ride on the Danube.

El tour es interesante y ofrece unas vistas preciosas a la ciudad. Lo recomiendo encarecidamente. Por ponerle una pega: la calidad de los cascos para el audioguía deja que desear y me parece un poco antihigiénico porque se los pone todo el mundo. Aun así lo disfrutamos mucho. Además incluye una bebida gratis y es el staff quien va a tu sitio a tomarte nota y a traerte lo que hayas pedido. Muy cómodo. Translate this opinion into English.

The tour is interesting and offers beautiful views of the city. I highly recommend it. The only drawback: the quality of the audio guide headsets leaves something to be desired, and I find them a bit unhygienic because everyone wears them. Still, we really enjoyed it. It also includes a free drink, and the staff will come to your seat to take your order and bring you whatever you ordered. Very convenient. Opinion translated. Show original.

Al reservar tuvimos en cuenta la hora del anochecer para poder ver la puesta del sol y como se iluminaba la ciudad, fue precioso. El crucero incluye una bebida a elegir entre vino, cerveza, champan o refresco y también una audioguía con distintos idiomas. Recomendamos llegar puntual, ya que al ser de los primeros en entrar tienes más sitio por elegir. Translate this opinion into English.

When booking we took into account the time of dusk so we could see the sunset and how the city lit up, it was beautiful. The cruise includes a drink of your choice between wine, beer, champagne or soft drink and also an audio guide with different languages. We recommend arriving on time, since being one of the first to enter has more places to choose from. Opinion translated. Show original.
