Handelskai, Vienna.
After a hectic week in Vienna in May 2007, it was time to move on to Budapest for our first ever visit to the Hungarian capital. To get there we took a Hungarian hydrofoil boat, which cruises up the Danube at about 60 kph and takes about 6 hours for the trip. It was so interesting that it seemed like 2 hours, and the boat was very comfortable. But take your own coffee flask and sandwiches - the catering was worse than basic.
