Enjoying a Budapest Christmas Day cruise is a truly festive experience, if you are spending Dec 25 in the city of Budapest. The sights by the river Danube in Budapest are a treat to the eyes, the mind. The Christmas Day dinner cruises are either a la carte, served dinner, or buffet style (the dishes are self-served and inclusive in buffet dinners).

There are many things to do in Budapest on Dec 25 Christmas Markets with free street concerts, tasty street food and handicrafts etc, Christmas Concerts, or Christmas Festive Trams. Spend the festive season in the lovely decorated city centre and indulge yourself with some unique Christmas programs.
The most popular cruises such as the Candlelit A la Carte Dinner Cruise on Legenda normally sell out by early December, so if you have a Legenda Christmas Dinner cruise in mind, hurry up before all the seats are booked up (Dec 24 and 25 sold out this year, Dec 26 some places left but will soon be gone).
