Our boat rental Budapest services are available not only within the city of Budapest!
Rental fee starts from EUR 600 per hour.
You can contact us regarding your boat rental inquiries with this form. Feel free to check the FAQs on boat rental, a short summary is below
Can I fly a drone?
Nope, the area around the Hungarian Parliament is a limited airpace, so unless you have a prior written permission on flying a drone in that airspace it is not possible.
city lights, illumination, illumination by night
Budapest’s illumination by night dresses the city into a different costume and thus is really beautiful, still, we do not control that. Certain times the illumination can be dimmed or changed from the standard (color) scheme to commemorate certain occasions, like national days of Hungary or other countries, Earth Hour or fight against breast cancer. The view and the panorama is still unique with or without the illumination, that only provides an extra flavour to it.
Lights are turned on after sunset.
Lights are usually turned off at 11pm (DST time) or 10pm (non-DST time).
Portum Lines as a cruise operator has absolutely zero control over the illumination of the city.
Can I eat or drink on the boat?
Naturally, there is a bar on-board, we are happy to serve your preferred drinks during the cruise. You’ll find the prices on our drinks menu. Also we serve light snacks on certain cruises. Providing cooked food is not possible on our sightseeing cruises for legal compliance, though in case of boat rental even a dinner for 2 is possible.
How many people can I bring?
When you rent our boats for us doesn’t matter how many persons are on boat till match is capacity – and naturally, your accepted offer. MS Neptun is max. 250 pax (with crew), MS Merian is max. 300 pax (with crew), MS Klara 40 pax (with crew). Consider that the maximum capacity does not equal to comfort, though it depends by the type of the event.
As per our knowledge the convenient capacity is usually half of the total capacity.
when does it start?
The rental starts at the time indicated on your voucher. You may show up later, though.
Our colleagues will reply within a business day usually. No offers will be made on standard products, like private boat or Stag or Hen Party Cruise.
