We had an amazing afternoon's canoe trip down the Danube. It was the highlight of our stag do. The perfect way to see the sites of Budapest. The whole trip was extremely well organised. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a slightly different and memorable experience.

Dominic and Mona were excellent hosts, we had a great time and would thoroughly recommend the experience. Instructions were clear and helpful and we’re so glad we decided to take the time to do this while in Budapest.

The staff were extremely nice and helpful. The venue was just incredible and the instructors were very informed when it came to information about the city and the river itself. Pictures and videos were taken which serve as great memories. The food they brought along was very good and fresh. The instructors were also patient when the group got tired. Definitely worth the money.

We loved the trip! We were a group of 14 girls and we enjoyed the canoeing in nature very much! The hosts were very nice and they made the reservation very easy. They had nice food and some drinks for us and even made nice photos and videos on the way! I would recommend this to you!

This was the highlight of my trip to Budapest and I'd even go so far as to say that this is one of the highlights of my life so far!
Myself and my friend checked off all the tourist tick boxes- Basilica, spas, ruin bars, House of Terror etc etc; but our canoe trip down the Little Danube was superior to all of those experiences. We had a half a day nature tour in the beautiful sunshine. We saw turtles and dragonflies, learned how to canoe, swam in the river and even had champagne and Hungarian pastries for lunch before getting back in the canoe. I have never felt more relaxed.
Dominic and Zsuzsanna are so lovely and so good at what they do. You don't have to be good at canoeing- (and if you're really bad, just let Dominic do all the work.) Not only did we have a fabulous day, but we also picked up some amazing tips and recommendations on what to do with the rest of our time in Budapest.
They pick you up from your accommodation, take you back and provide you with pictures. It's just astounding value for money. I've recommended this to all my friends and can't stop going on about it. I'd say a trip to Budapest without doing this canoe trip is a trip wasted. :)

We did this tour on our trip to Budapest. (M/24, M/24, M/26). The setup was two canoes tied together for more stability, with the fourth person being the guide Peter from Budapest Canoe.
We had a meeting point central in Budapest, were a girl from the company collected us and transported us to north of Donau by the subway. At the starting spot north of Donau, we met our guide.
Friendly staff, and they had extra sunlotion and water for us at the spot. They had waterproof casings and containers for our stuff. They even provided us a waterproof camera to picture the trip along the way.
We were able to see the Donau and Budapest in our own pace, with Peter guiding the tour with fun facts and history about buildings, rivers, and bridges.
After the trip they transported us to our next location.
I would definitely recommend this company to friends and family.
Because of the canoe construction (tied together) you would be able to bring kids to the canoetrip as well.

This is a family run business. Dominic, Mona and Zsuzsanna were fantastic. We had a very warm welcome and felt at ease with them. They were punctual when picking us up and were delightful people. The canoeing is good fun on the river taking you out into what seems like isolated beauty but is really in the heart of the city. Very bizarre. We were a group of ten. Dominic took us into the water and he was well up for a laugh.
I would recommend. An awesome way to spend an afternoon.

We are here for the rest of the week except for Tuesday and Wednesday... is there anyway we can book a kayak trip for two of us for half day morning this week? If you have something tomorrow that would be perfect!
