Budapest Super Saver: Spa, Basilica Tour, and Danube Cruise

About This Experience

This Hungaria Koncert package puts three separate activities on one voucher, all booked for the same day by default. You get a full-day ticket to Lukács Thermal Bath, valid from opening on the booked date. At 16:00 you join a 50-minute English-language guided tour of St. Stephen’s Basilica, and you can stay inside afterwards. At 19:00 you board the historic Gróf Széchenyi ship for a 90-minute night cruise with a welcome drink. Transfers between the three are not included, so you travel on your own. If you want the tour or cruise on another day, contact the provider.

Lukács is in District II on the Buda side, open 7:00-19:00 most days and until 22:00 on Tuesdays. Its sauna world opens from 14:00 on weekdays and all day at weekends. Two things are currently unavailable because of renovation: the wellness Finnish sauna and the private bath service. Under-14s are not admitted, slippers are compulsory and a swim cap is needed in the swimming pools. On-site payment is by card only. Because the bath ticket covers the whole day, you can soak in the morning and still reach the Basilica by 16:00.

Reviewers mostly call it good value for three activities and say the timing works without feeling rushed. They praise the Basilica guides by name as knowledgeable and friendly, though one found the guide spoke a little quickly. Several liked being able to enter the bath at any time on the day. The cruise gets a mixed reception: some loved it, while one guest found the boat crowded and the 90 minutes long, even with live music. Another said the meeting information felt vague and pointed out that boarding starts about half an hour before the 19:00 departure.

On dates we checked in late October 2026 this package cost about $71. The listing shows 4.6 from 138 reviews. It suits adults on a short trip who want a bath, a major sight and an evening on the river without booking three things separately. Families with children under 14 cannot use the bath, and wheelchair users should pick something else, as the listing flags it as unsuitable. If you mainly want a long day at the baths, a dedicated Lukács or Széchenyi ticket gives you more time in the water.

Build in travel time between the bath, the Basilica and the pier, since none of it is arranged for you, and check your voucher for the boarding point. Pack your own towel, slippers and a swim cap for Lukács, since none are included, and a warm layer for the evening on the river. For other ways to combine a bath with a Danube cruise, see our spa and cruise packages page, which lines up the options by price and timing.
