More information on Boats

Being a city cut in two by the Danube, it's only natural that there are quite a few options when it comes to taking a boat trip. In fact you can go to Vienna or Bratislava by hydrofoil, or a little closer to home, to Szentendre or Visegrad. You can also just see the city, not really going anywhere. To Szentendre: boats leave from Vigado ter starting April 1, at 9am. These boats are getting increasingly overcrowded, so arrive early to get a seat. To Visegrad: boats leave at 8am and 9am. To Bratislava and Vienna: boats leave from Belgrad rakpart at 9am in April and 8am from May 1 (tel: +36 1 318 1743). Along the river: from Boraros ter, Thu-Sun, 9am, 11:40 am, 12:40 pm and 3:20 pm (the trip takes about an hour).
