Description

See Budapest and its historic sights from the Danube River on this rafting tour. Paddle down the river from the northern side of the city and arrive at an intimate bar on the south riverbank.
The extraordinary sightseeing experience on river Danube! Spend an unforgettable afternoon on the Danube river with sightseeing from a super stable raft boat. See the city from a special point of view, without the crowdedness of the most popular places.
We start our ride from the Northern section of Budapest and as we paddle down along the twist of the river, we pass by all the main attractions, which are perfectly visible from the river. Among other notable buildings, you will see the magnificent Parliament, paddle under all the historical bridges, admire the ridges of the Buda hills as they rise above the city. At the end of our trip we arrive at an intimate bar on the river bank, surrounded by a natural reserve and calm waters. You are our guest for a refreshing beer or a soft drink at the bar!
This is a fully guided tour so I will tell stories about the sights and their role in the history of Budapest.
Before we set sail I teach you the basics of paddling and how to behave on the river. I provide safety vests and dry bags in which you can carry your most important belongings. The boat we use is made for white water adventures, so super stable and almost impossible to tip over.
The trip includes the drive from the meeting point to the starting point of the adventure. From the finish point you can easily get back to the city center either by public transport or by taxi.
