+1: New Year’s Eve on a boat – why not?
When in Budapest, you simply have to try a couple of things, for example a river cruise on the Danube. And do you know a better occasion for that then New Year’s Eve? The city will be beautifully enlightened and a couple of fireworks can be seen from the boat, for sure. But waiting to see a ‘light show’ like this won’t be boring because you can have dinner and enjoy a retro style party on the boat. Do you prefer staying on a boat that doesn’t leave the port? Ok, we have an idea for that, too: choose A38, where you can have dinner and then enjoy Péterfi Bori & Love Band’s and Random Trip’s concerts.

Have a fantastic New Year’s Eve and a Happy New Year!
