Pleasant but never took us to Margaret Island as tour description stated

Pleasant boat ride. We were only one of 5 other guests on the boat! When I had scheduled the tour we were to have the option to get off the boat and explore Margaret Island.....but for whatever reason the boat crew said we were not stopping there. We did not get a clear reason why. Disappointing.

Danube in Budapest

An initial brushstroke to start getting to know Budapest; everyone involved in this activity is very attentive.

Great Value & Intro to history of Budapest

Great for the price- was on time, the auditory guide is easily accessible with headphones at every seat in many languages & at a pace that is understandable. Offered a drink of choice on way to the island, and a lemonade on the way back.
