Christmas Dinner Cruise on the Danube
Celebrate Christmas Eve in Budapest in style
Christmas Eve in Budapest carries a truly magical atmosphere. The streets sparkle with festive lights, Christmas markets fill the air with the scent of cinnamon and roasted chestnuts, and the Danube reflects the golden glow of the city’s monuments. By boarding our Christmas Dinner Cruise, you step away from the winter chill and into a warm, welcoming environment where holiday cheer surrounds you.
Spend an unforgettable Christmas Eve on board our elegant, newly built catamaran with a 3-hour festive dinner cruise along the majestic River Danube. Between Margaret Bridge and Rákóczi Bridge you will admire the breathtaking panorama of Budapest, including the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Castle District, the magnificent Parliament – often praised as one of the most beautiful parliaments in the world – and the iconic Citadel watching over the city. As the ship glides under the illuminated Chain Bridge, the very symbol of Budapest, the city reveals its most enchanting holiday face.
This special Christmas Dinner Cruise on 24 and 25 December 2025 is an experience designed to bring magic, warmth, and togetherness to your holiday season.

Music and entertainment
Your Christmas Eve will be further enriched by live entertainment. During your meal, you’ll be enchanted by a live piano performance, playing familiar Christmas melodies. Christmas on the Danube wouldn’t be complete without music — and on board, the spirit of the season truly comes alive. You may hear the familiar opening notes of Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” the bittersweet beauty of George Michael’s “Last Christmas,” or the warm crooning of Michael Bublé’s holiday favourites. Add to that the magic of Frank Sinatra’s smooth voice, the charm of Ella Fitzgerald, or even the soulful gravitas of Louis Armstrong’s Christmas tunes, and you have a soundtrack that captures every shade of the festive mood — from cheerful and upbeat to nostalgic and heartwarming. The combination of live performance, beloved Christmas standards, and the glittering panorama of Budapest makes this evening an unforgettable highlight of the holidays.
The Holiday atmosphere
Our catamaran will be dressed in festive décor, glowing with candlelight and holiday charm, creating the perfect setting for celebrating with loved ones. The illuminated Budapest skyline provides a stunning backdrop to your dinner, making the evening a truly magical Christmas experience. Forget the stress of cooking and rushing at home: this Christmas Eve you can focus only on what really matters – enjoying precious moments with your family and friends in an intimate, joyful atmosphere.
Whether you’re traveling as a couple looking for a romantic holiday evening, a family searching for a festive program for all generations, or a group of friends wanting to celebrate in style, the Christmas Dinner Cruise is a perfect fit. The ship’s heated interior provides cozy comfort, while the open deck offers the chance to step outside and feel the crisp December air as you admire the lights of Budapest.
