Naturally by boat and with us! We are happy to provide you excellent options, like North from Budapest, where there is plenty to see in the Danube Bend (Dunakanyar) and mooring or anchoring options are also available. We can go through Szentendre Duna Branch, where we can organise the program of your choice. Let it be a simple sightseeing program or some active relaxation, like riding the bike.

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
when does it start?
The rental starts at the time indicated on your voucher. You may show up later, though.
What routes do you suggest?
The suggested route is basically dependant on your time and preferences. Naturally the route and its timing is highly dependant on the flow, water level, traffic, actual bans by the relevant authorities. Naturally speed downstream and upstream differs. Example routes are listed at the boat’s page.
A trip to Szentendre is usually 4 hours, 2.5 hours to Szentendre and 1.5 hour to return to Budapest.
A 2-hour trip usually enough for an extended Budapest, so something like Dock 42 – Haller u. – Dock 42.
A 1-hour trip covers short version of Budapest Dock 42 – Vigado – Dock 42.
How do I pay for a boat rental?
In case of a boat rental, provided that your group size is smaller, please check our package offers for MS Klara boat. These packages can be bought direct in the webshop by selecting the product, date, time. Naturally, you may also add your data for an invoice, when that is needed.
When you prefer to have something different, please contact us on the contact – boat rental page. Then we can make a quote and provide that to you by email. Payment can be done by bank card or bank transfer. For reservation of the booking financial settlement of tha booking fee is required.
the sums on the invoice and the card charge differs / I need an invoice on the booking fee
Probably you have noticed the sums on the receipt/invoice is different than the sums on the card charge. The difference comes from the booking fee charged by Fareharbor direct.
The total sum you have paid comes from the fees paid for the service (Fareharbor indicates that as Subtotal) and the booking fee for the platform (Fareharbor indicates that as Fee). We can only provide invoice on the first one as that is the service we provide.
In case you need an invoice on the booking fee (Fee) you need to contact with Fareharbor direct by a form or an email.
How fast is a boat?
A passenger boat is not a really fast vehicle and its speed is partly determined by the external conditions, the current of the river, wind.
In case of the MS Neptun we can calculate with the rough numbers of 8-10 km/hour upstream and 16-20 km/hour downstream.
For MS Klara these numbers are slightly lower 6-9 km/hour upstream and 14-18 km/hour downstream.
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.
