What you can expect

  • Budapest at night, unlimited drinks and the city’s largest open rooftop terrace? A combination that is difficult to say no to.

    Meet our boarding team at Petőfi tér 9 and step aboard Floating Lotus for a 75-minute sightseeing experience on the Danube. Explore two spacious decks, find your favourite viewpoint and watch Budapest’s illuminated skyline unfold around you.

    See the Hungarian Parliament, Buda Castle, Chain Bridge, Liberty Bridge, Gellért Hill, Margaret Island and the city’s historic bridges glowing after dark. Exact lighting conditions may vary depending on the season and departure time.

    Enjoy unlimited Prosecco, Aperol Spritz, Hugo Spritz, beer, selected Hungarian wines, soft drinks, homemade lemonade and water throughout the programme. Grab your favourite drink, head upstairs and let the views do the rest.

    Seating is available for every guest on the indoor lower deck. The rooftop is a spacious open viewing and walking terrace with spectacular 360° views. Seating upstairs is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis, so rooftop seating is not guaranteed with a standard ticket.

    On selected Thursday, Friday and Saturday departures, a live DJ adds to the atmosphere. DJ availability may vary depending on the date and departure.

    Want to discover the stories behind the skyline? Free English audio commentary is available via QR code. Bring your own headphones and listen from your preferred location on the boat.

    Looking for an upgrade? Our limited-capacity VIP area includes priority boarding, an exclusive private section at the front of the upper deck, dedicated seating, additional comfortable furniture and a private bar with an assigned bartender. On DJ nights, the VIP area is located beside the DJ booth. VIP guests can also purchase a selection of spirits in addition to the unlimited drinks included in the programme.

    Rainy evening? We still cruise. The indoor panoramic deck is air-conditioned during warmer weather and heated during colder periods, allowing you to enjoy the experience comfortably throughout the season.

    Departure times and meeting points may occasionally change due to weather, river conditions, closures or operational circumstances. If anything changes, all guests will be notified using the contact details provided with the booking, so please check your messages before arrival.

    Unlimited drinks, sparkling city lights and Budapest from the Danube — cheers to an evening worth remembering.
