Family Friendly Cruise on Duna Bella Boat

Children on Budapest Cruise on Danube – Istvan Janvari Photography

As Duna Bella boat trip is free for children under 10 years of age, families with younger children can save a lot on this day cruise. Unfortunately, there is no babysitting service or child’s corner on the sightseeing boat, so you will have to keep a good eye on the children.

The cruise is 1 hour 10 minutes, which children enjoy: taking the pretty boat, looking through the window / terrace, climbing to the upper deck, spotting the ships on the Danube, trying the earphone, and getting some story of the river and the nearby attractions can keep them busy and entertained, enriching without feeling dry and educational.

Adults pay, children travel free: at least if they are under 10: we think the Duna Bella day cruises from 11 am to 5 pm are the perfect kid friendly river cruises in Budapest. Child tickets are only to be bought for children aged 10 – 14. We hope you agree that it is a very good cruise deal. If you want to have a  lunch cruise with your family, you may consider the affordable buffet style lunch cruise in Budapest (free for under 6 children)

Children Discount Cruise Fee (10 – 14): €8 Children Cruise Fee (0 – 10): Free!

I am seeking a river cruise on the morning of Friday, October 11, 2024. Do you have a service on this date? Thank you i anticipation John Eustace (Sydney)

Dear John, Thank you for your inquiry. The guided cruises are already bookabe for October. Please find more details on the link below: https://budapestrivercruise.com/10-15am-sightseeing-cruise-in-budapest

I am interested in your 11am guided cruise for when I visit in a few weeks time.

Do we have to book online or can we just turn up and pay on the day?

If so, where do we meet to get the boat and pay?

Thank you for your help!

Hello Amy, we recommend the online bookings as the cruises are normally booked up in advance. You can find the dock details on the confirmation email,every cruise has a city centre dock. Hope we can welcome you aboard!

Essentially, the music of the Danube dinner cruise is salon music. But who is the live band playing on the Danube dinner cruise?

thank you for contacting us.

Could you please confirm which dinner cruise you meant in your comment?

We have wide ranges of dinner cruises with different music, such as Bar Piano, Gypsy Music, Operetta or salon music.

Waiting for your reply.

Hello Paul, the winter schedule is very limited compared to summer time cruises in Budapest. Tomorrow (Jan 29) the 2pm sightseeing cruise boat Duna Bella leaves from the 8th pier on Vigado Square, in the city center of Budapest. The other two options with the above fleet is at 6.30 pm (sightseeing boat) or 7 pm (dinner and music boat). In winter time if the weather is not sunny it is better to take the evening cruises as the sights are nicer.

What time does the tour begin tomorrow 1/29/15? Where is it located. We are staying near the opera house

Duna Bella Cruise

The views were amazing. Great cruise and staff were very kind. It is definitely worth to visit Margaret Island.

A very good experience along Danubio to appreciate the most popular local palace and historical buildings We decided to start our tour at 20:15, and the hour has been very smart When we come back the line for boating was amazing And with 35°C our choice was perfect!!! Absolutely to try!!!

This is a lovely late evening cruise. Not sure I needed a free glass of wine, but hey ho! We set off at 9:45, great to see the lights on the river in the dark. The cruise is great, but there are two ways that you can view the recorded guide - either written by someone who hasn’t got beyond the idea that interest is added by having mediocre actors tell you information in the first person; or as a hilarious send up of how a 10 year old would write a tour-guide script. Probably best enjoyed with that free glass of wine after all.

The vessel was in very good condition. We were greeted warmly and served with enthusiasm. The food was excellent and the view of both sides of the river were wonderful with many opportunities for pictures. Highly recommended

This was my husband's favourite sightseeing during our one week stay in Budapest. The weather at the end of April was perfect, not too cold and sunny. The boat is new, clean, and the staff is super friendly. The views were amazing, and if you sit inside by the sliding doors you will shoot amazing content. We chose to take the last afternoon boat and we managed to get both sunshine and sunset, so lucky. Various drinks were offered, and the dock was not too far from where we were staying. It gave us a chance to walk along the Danube by night, pretty spectacular.

We really enjoyed the food and hospitality on Board, staff were wonderful! I did comment to my husband with in 10 minutes of being on the boat......."Where are our life jackets?" as we had seen how rapid the flow of water was during the day time and saw whole trees, complete with roots, being shot down the river in the torrant! As it turned out, two nights later, a boat load of Koreans were killed under the very same bridge whe had traveled 48 hours previously. Very thankful we were not invlove, This involved another boat comapany and was due to catain error.

Tom Cruise Poses For Photo With Kids Bella and Connor for First Time in Nearly 15 Years

Tom cruise was seen spending some quality time with kids isabella “bella” kidman and connor cruise, whom he shares with ex-wife nicole kidman. it’s the trio’s first public outing in 14 years..

This family moment will take your breath away.

Tom Cruise made his first outing with his eldest children Isabella "Bella" Kidman Cruise , 31, and Connor Cruise , 29, in nearly 15 years last December when the trio saw the Tampa Bay Lightning face off against the Florida Panthers. 

And in true pics or it didn't happen fashion, they commemorated the NHL game by posing for a group photo, which also included former NFL player Derrick Brooks .

It's a rare glimpse into Tom's family's time as both Bella and Connor—whom he shares with ex-wife Nicole Kidman —prefer to remain out of the public eye. In fact, the last time the three were seen publicly together was in 2009 when they attended a soccer game in Los Angeles. 

Both Connor and Bella also tend to keep a low profile on social media, with the artist sharing an occasional selfie amid her work. As for Connor, he last shared a selfie in June while with his pals in Florida.

However, over the years, Tom—who is also dad to Suri Cruise , 18, whom he shares with ex-wife Katie Holmes —and Connor have attended sporting events together, cheering on Los Angeles Lakers, Los Angeles Dodgers and Maryland Terrapins.

But it's no surprise that Connor and Bella prefer to stay out of the limelight, as Nicole and Tom agreed it was best for the kids since they were young.

"I'm very private about all that," the Moulin Rouge actress—who is also mom to daughters Sunday Rose Kidman Urban , 15, and Faith Margaret Kidman Urban , 13, with husband Keith Urban —told Australian outlet Who in 2018. "I have to protect all those relationships. I know 150 percent that I would give up my life for my children because it's what my purpose is."
