      Dear Dignisz,
      thank you for your inquiry.
      I am afraid there will be no gluten free dishes on the NYE Retro Cruise, therefore we would recommend you to choose the NYE Dinner Cruise & Piano Music, where you can request a special menu: https://budapestrivercruise.com/new-years-eve-dinner-cruise-with-piano-show

      Hello Yigal,

      thank you for your emails.

      The confirmation email was already sent to you this morning.

      The dress code is Casual / Smart Casual, which only emphasizes comfort over presentation, formality and conformity. More simply, it is something relaxed, occasional. Wearing jeans and trainers means no problem at all.

      Have a great NYE Party on board in Budapest!

      Hello Sabrina,

      thank you for your email.

      Yes, there are available tickets left for this popular NYE program, but tickets are running out fast.

      The minimum age for this program is 18 but is is very popular from young guests to elderly people.

      Yes, you only need to bring your confirmation email with you (printed or in digital format).
      The ship will be either Szt Laszlo or Rapszodia.

  • Doc Rob December 11, 2018

    Sorry, is there a minimum age? I have a son that I purchased a ticket for and he is 12.

    On the information above, it says under 18 is okay but no alcoholic beverage will be served.

    Just wanted to clarify.

    • Budapest River Cruise November 20, 2019

      Dear Tracy, we believe the retro party is for anyone who loves retro music and a dinner party on New Year’s Eve, whether they are in their 30s or 60s or 40s. Most cruises on Dec 31 run with a mixed age (unless they are specifically advertised as student NYE parties or aimed at young folks).
      40 somethings will definitely love it if they love a good party!
