Budapest,
by the river.
Nine ways to sail the Danube — from a fifty-minute loop past the Parliament to hydrofoils bound for medieval Esztergom. Welcome drink on every ticket.
We were born on the Danube. Nine generations of captains later, we still know every bend of it — where the light is best, where the Parliament reflects perfectly, where the wake should die away.
The three cruises
everyone wants.
Sail into the
Danube Bend.
The river takes a hard turn north of Budapest — past baroque villages, hilltop citadels and Hungary's ancient royal capital. Half-day escapes to Szentendre, full-day cruises to Visegrád, and the legendary Bibic hydrofoil to Esztergom.
Not just a boat —
an evening.
Nine generations,
one river.
Since 1846, MAHART has carried Budapest across every chapter of its history — through empires and floods, wars and peace. In 1994 we became MAHART PassNave, the passenger arm of the country's oldest shipping line. Today we operate the most complete fleet on the Hungarian Danube.
