Budapest is best understood from the river: the Parliament, the castle and the bridges are on both banks of the Danube. Legenda, a Budapest shipping company, runs one-hour cruises that go up to the Parliament and Margaret Island and down to Liberty Bridge, with a recorded commentary in about 30 languages at your seat.

Duna Bella, by day: the one-hour trip, with a film about the monuments.
Danube Legend, afternoon and night: the same route with the city lit up and a drink included.
Candlelit dinner: a four-course dinner with live music, at 19:00.

## Consejos

### Go at dusk
In winter it gets dark before 16:30: the 16:20 or 17:00 boat catches the sunset and the lights.

### Stay outside for a while
The outer deck is the best for photos of the Parliament; bring a coat.

## Preguntas frecuentes
