Danube at Full Speed

What to expect

A private motor-boat cruise with Boats4U, only for your group, with a professional captain at the wheel. You see the city from the water and pass under its bridges, and the captain sets the speed to suit you, from a slow glide to a fast ride.

Daytime cruises show the castle and the riverfront in full light; evening cruises pass the lit-up waterfront. A good fit for couples, families, celebrations and team building.

Route & highlights

• the modern Eurovea waterfront
• the historic riverside with the passenger port and the Reduta building, home of the Slovak Philharmonic
• Bratislava Castle and the streets below it
• the River Park riverfront
• the quiet Karloveské rameno branch of the Danube
• longer trips on the Slovak and Austrian stretches of the Danube on request

Before you go

You can board at the Vlčie hrdlo marina or, without the trip out of town, in the centre: at the Dunajský pivovar boat, the pontoon below Grand Hotel River Park or the HUMA2 pontoon by the SNP Bridge.

A bottle of sparkling wine, mineral water and blankets are on board, with life jackets for everyone. The organiser states the cruises are suitable for children from 3 years and for wheelchair users; discuss specific needs when booking.
