Bar, Club & Pub Tours in Budapest

Completely lived to all our expectations. Had some amazing two hours cruising along Danube river after the sunset. City looks absolutely stunning from the boat. Wine was good and staff was really friendly. Also you can ask musicians to play a song of your choice.
Worth the money!

In Budapest celebrating my wife's birthday. We went to the baths and then finished the night doing this wine cruise. All seven wines tasted great (I'm no expert though) and the view from the river of all the major sites along the Danube can't be beat. Live music was great too. The only thing some might want to keep in mind is that you are at a table with about 8-10 other people and there are multiple cruises on the boat (beer tour, dinner, etc.). I would say definitely eat beforehand so that you can enjoy the wine and so there's no resentment about all the food that's set out that you don't have access to. Recommended!

Loved this tour. The waiters were very informative. The musicians were incredible. I did this on my first evening in Budapest and I HIGHLY recommend it!!!!!!

I enjoyed the experience, very romantic. Fantastic wine, viewing all the sights light up from the Danube is fabric, I would recommend it!

Brilliant!

The beer was really good. Our personal waiter gave us 1 bottle for 2 persons each beer.

But if you have the toor at 6 P.M., most likely you will be surrounded by a gypsy band. They make pretty cool music, but really (really!) beg for money and annoy. The frontman of the band came to all the people and played his violine 15 centimeters next to the peoples faces to scrounge some money. He even showed me a banknote as an instruction for me, that he wants money. That was too invasive.

Very pleasant cruise. We did take one in the afternoon so we were the only ones taking the tour which meant that we got the bottles all to ourself.
The woman bringing the beers is very friendly and answered all our questions.
Also the number of beers you get is the same as in the evening but the tour is half an hour less, so beware because you have to drink the same amount but in a shorter amount of time.

Definitely something I would recommend doing when visiting Budapest.

The cruise was nice and service good. Seeing Budapest from the Danube was great.

The only negative thing was that: Different quality beers should be served from different clean beer-glasses; not all beers from same glass.

Next visit in Budapest we will for sure attend the Wine-tasting cruise : )

Thanks / Köszönöm,

Great night, great view and brilliant beers. Peter who lead the beer tasting for us was great, helpful and friendly, top bloke. Recommend the porter and flying rabbit

If you take the trip at face value, the wine, views and atmosphere was great. It was the organisation and service around the event that was disappointing...

We were told to meet at Danube Palace as were many other people for various tours, once we arrived there was no indication that we were in the correct place. We followed a group of people in what seemed like the direction of the waterfront with no communication from the lead where we were going or what tour we were being taken to. Once aboard the boat, we get shown to our table and sit there patiently, waiting to be greeted by our server / host. We watch as she serves all the tables around us, they're now being served their second glass of wine and we still have not even been greeted / told what is happening. I went to speak to her to query when we will get our wine to which she replies she did not know we were part of the tour!!! 45 minutes later and we are sat sipping our first glass of wine watching the beautiful buildings from the Danube. The wine itself was great but more could have been done to explain / talk about the different types of wine and where they come from etc.

A few simple improvements and this tour would easily be a 4/5*!!!

There were only 4 of us stuck at a large table in the middle of a dinner cruise. The hostess only brought over a small amount of beer every 20 minutes to make the tasting last the length of the dinner cruise. We asked her to sped up and she wouldn't. We would have liked to try all the beer in appropriate time frame to choose which one would have like to drink for the rest of the cruise. We were only given our final beer as we docked. Very poorly done.

We weren't told that this would be combined with other tours or there was too few of us. We have have changed our reservation. We would have joined the wine tasting as they were getting attention from the staff.

We were, initially, very excited about this. Unfortunately, it ended up being a waste of 2 hours in a city with a million things to do. Firstly, the wines were horrible. Having already tried most of these Hungarian varietals, we knew how they were supposed to taste. The whites tasted like water, the reds lacked character, even the Tokaji was pretty bad. They were gas-station quality. They shoved us at a little table at the top of the staircase behind the huge metal contraption used for loading so we couldn't see anything outside (the point of the cruise being to see the sights on each side of the Danube...) and when we asked to move to an unoccupied table, a server told us that if we couldn't see we should just go outside. It was October 31 and very cold outside. We were finally told we could move but changing tables hardly helped as the dining room was so brightly lit that it was impossible to see anything but reflections of the dining room. For about the same amount, you could go to the beautiful wine bar DiVino by the basilica and enjoy delicious (full) glasses of all of these types of wine.
