Yes! All Budapest Boat Party events sail up and down the Danube for 1.5-2 hours (depending on which event you book) passing by the best sights in the city. You will see everything between the Margit bridge and the Lágymányosi bridge on our cruises, which include all of the notable downtown sights of Budapest.

The boat will usually leave the dock 30 minutes after the doors open. For nighttime events, this is usually 22:00 (doors open 21:30) but please do check your tickets to ensure you don’t miss the boat. We are unable to wait for latecomers!
For Pub Crawls, we will always be at the meeting point for the duration of the open bar offer í81-1.5hrs). If you will be joining us later than this, please call our hotline to find out what the next bar is scheduled to be.

We accept either HUF or EUR for your ticket payment if you are paying with cash. Unfortunately, the bars on the boat only accept cash payment in HUF, but you can pay with your card in any currency you like!
Most bars in Budapest take just HUF in cash, but also have card payments too.

Does the pope wear a dress? Of course you can! If you decided against the unlimited drinks package but still want to get your jolly on, we have a fully stocked bar on board selling basic and premium spirits, juices, soft drinks, beer and wine.

The boat will always dock back right where we started (unless specifically stated otherwise) however, the after party venue changes depending on the event. Check the Our Parties pages for more information about the venues and how we get there.
Our pub crawls always end at Instant-Fogas Komplexum, a huge entertainment venue with theatrical decor, 18 bars, 6 dance floors & 2 gardens.
