About this activity

Explore Buda's UNESCO-listed castle district on foot, discovering centuries of history amid baroque streets and iconic landmarks, then unwind with an afternoon Danube cruise featuring stops at Margaret Island and views of the Chain Bridge. This combined tour captures Budapest's most photogenic vistas and romantic atmosphere in a single half-day experience.

Discover Buda, the castle district of Budapest and a UNESCO World Heritage. Buda is a romantic part of the city; here you can see the original parts of the city, which have defied earthquakes, fires, sieges, and the war.

Visit Castle Hill with us! Admire the Sándor Palace, Matthias Church or the Fisherman's Bastion, and enjoy the incredible panoramic views to the Parliament Building and the Chain Bridge.

Wander the small streets and contemplative squares of the district as you hear stories of the lives of Buda residents.

In the afternoon enjoy a relaxing cruise on the Danube river with drinks. During the cruise, you have the possibility to take marvellous pictures, cruise under the famous Chain bridge!

Explore Margaret Island on your own during the cruise. You will have 1.5 hours of free time. We give you an Exclusive Margaret Island map with recommended walking tours and sights info, special discounts on Margaret Island activities and restaurants and many more!
