BKV Relaunched River Boat Service

BKV, the public transport company in Budapest, has relaunched their river boat service, and it’s making quite a splash!

Imagine this: you’re cruising along the Danube, taking in the breathtaking sights of Budapest from a whole new perspective. Historic locations, stunning architecture, and a panoramic view that’ll leave you in awe. It’s an experience like no other!

The best part? You’ve got options. During the day, hop on the City Centre Cruise for a leisurely hop-on, hop-off adventure between 11:00 and 19:00. You can explore the city at your own pace, jumping off at iconic spots like Kossuth Lajos Square, Margaret Island, Batthyány Square, Várket Bazaar, and Petőfi Square.

But wait, there’s more! If you’re in the mood for a romantic evening or want to see the city lights shimmer on the water, the evening Sightseeing Ship is your ticket to paradise. It departs from Kossuth Lajos Square three times a night, taking you on a mesmerizing journey through the heart of Budapest. Just keep in mind, no furry friends or bicycles allowed on this one.

And here’s a little insider tip: while you’re on board, keep an eye out for the QR codes. Scan them with your smartphone, and voila! You’ll have access to a wealth of information about the sights you’re seeing, available in 11 different languages. It’s like having your very own virtual tour guide!

So, whether you’re a local looking to fall in love with your city all over again or a visitor eager to discover the magic of Budapest, the BKV river boat service is an absolute must. Trust me, you won’t want to miss out on this unforgettable experience. All aboard!
