Budapest Eye is an iconic point of the Hungarian capital, that offers you a 360° panorama to the whole city. With its 60/65 meter height the Ferris Will is a famous sight in itself, and during your Danube River Cruise you’ll have the chance to take a look at it.
No need to mention that Budapest Eye is a must when you are visiting Budapest. Not only for the breathtaking panorama that you get up there, but the journey is a huge experience too. Its location also guarantees that you can’t miss it, as you’ll find it next to Deák square, the most popular tourist destination.
