Walking along the river or having lunch next to it in Budapest is one of those things you need to experience..

One of the longest rivers in Europe with many twists and turns, it is the lifeblood of many villages and towns along the way. Soothing, calming, lovely, take a slow river cruise and enjoy every minute. If you are on a river cruise it is worth staying up late or getting up early when the boat goes through a lock.

Budapest is a perfect city for walkers and athletes. If you want to enjoy a vacation filled with activity, this is it!! There is so much to see by foot and the city is an appropriate size to explore in this fashion. Grab your map and your camera and have fun! Enjoy the splendor of Budapest!

If you go to Budapest, you must include Danube in your schedule. Whether it will be a boat tour, a walk on Margaret Island or a climb to the Castle, Danube is there for you, to offer amazing sights and a romantic ambiance.
