If you want a clear overview before you decide, the details below cover the practical bits and the most common options, kept short and easy to scan.

Meeting point and timing
You will meet at a fixed point on the Pest side, walking distance from Margaret Bridge. Arriving 10 minutes early is ideal, because on a 60 minute cruise the smooth start is what keeps everything simple.

Route and what you will see
This is the central panorama route, focused on the iconic landmarks, Parliament, Chain Bridge, and the Buda Castle area views. If you want the full concept first, you can also check our main overview of a private boat cruise and then come back to this 60 minute option.

Best time slots
Sunset is the most popular because the city looks unreal in golden light, but daytime is perfect for crisp photos and a brighter vibe. Evening slots are great if you want the skyline to start glowing.

Group size and onboard setup
This package is a great fit for 6 to 15 guests on a mid size boat. If you are a bigger group, we can still make it work by adjusting the onboard setup with add ons, or we can recommend the best alternative for your date.

Welcome drinks
If you want a simple upgrade, welcome drinks give the cruise a nice start without turning it into a full bar setup. We confirm the drink choice with your quote so it matches your vibe.

Open bar package
If you prefer everything handled, choose an open bar package and we will confirm the exact inclusions and serving style in writing. It is the easiest option for groups that want one clean plan.

Music and atmosphere
You can bring your own playlist and use the onboard sound system, so the vibe feels personal without needing anything complicated.

Add ons that actually fit a 60 minute cruise
The best add ons for this duration are the ones that save time, extra ice and mixers, a simple snacks setup, a small decor touch, or a timing suggestion that improves photos.
