Budapest Cruise + Folk Show

  • 67 reviews | 946 travellers
    The show was very good, service was good, musicians were very good, food and drinks were good quality. To put a but, the boat has very little space at the bow and stern to take photos of the city, all passengers want the same photo and there is not enough space for everyone.
