Prices of the Szentendre Cruise

The single ticket price of the Budapest – Szentendre  or Szentendre – Budapest cruise includes a one way ticket (only one direction) from Budapest to Szentendre ( or from Szentendre to Budapest).

Most of the visitors combine the cruise trip with a suburban train trip (called HEV train), which goes from Batthyany Square (Budapest) to Szentendre. The train trip takes approx. 40 minutes. Taking a boat from Szentendre to Budapest offers a dramatic entry to the city of Budapest, and a short but nice 1 hour boat tour. On the other way around, the tour from Budapest to Szentendre is more relaxed, as the cruise takes longer upriver (approx. 2 hours). This way you are leaving behind the Pearl of the Danube as Budapest is often called, to arrive at the countryside gem of Hungary, and enjoy the views of Szentendre from the river with all the little churches on hills.

Single day return tickets for the cruise cost less than buying two separate single tickets.
