In August 2014 I took my Girlfriend, her 10 Year Old Daughter and 2 Year Old Son swimming on a basic ticket, which cost a total of 11,050 HUF (son was free), and must say we really enjoyed the day out. There was plenty to keep everyone very happy regardless of age and the tickets were value for money too. We went on a week day in August, when it was less busy, and only had to wait around 5 Minutes for the Anaconda slide and around a minute or so for the other slides. The pools themselves were not crowded, to our surprise, so we enjoyed a length's swim of each pool more or less when we wanted. Napfényfürdõ Aquapolis is located on the left -side of the Belvárosi híd (Downtown Bridge) coming from the city centre (Széchenyi tér). You can actually see some of the outdoor swimming pools from the foot of the bridge. Buses #5 and #7 go over the bridge and stop at Torontál Tér, one stop from the bridge. This means you have to head back towards the foot of the bridge in order to walk down the side of it, on Közép Kikötő sor. This goes down hill until you reach Üdülők. There you will see the front entrance of Napfényfürdõ Aquapolis.

LONGEST WATER TUBE SLIDE ON EARTH? I LOVE this place! I'm from New York City and have been to my share of spas and Water Parks. This place is massive, with an optional discounted admission for people wanting to do just lap swimming in an outdoor pool that's operational during the winter months! Bring your own towel though if you want to save money -- everything here is extra. But I was mostly interested in the giant enclosed water slide that towers above the building, spins around the it, snakes around outside the building and then empties back into one of the indoor pools. I checked for the length of the longest tube slides on Earth and this seems to have them beaten and yet it's not marketed that way! It's 30 meters high and 272 meters long -- an elevator brings you up. Since it was the evening, the majority of the tube was enclosed in darkness, so when I started sliding through... it kept going and going and going -- kind of like a nightmare I've had where I'm sliding through pitch black, not knowing where I'm going or where I'll end up or when it's going to end. Definitely not for someone who's claustrophobic! Truly terrifying; I LOVED IT! When I landed in the pool at the end -- I looked around to see if people really KNEW the insanity that I just encountered! No one cared or noticed, but I was blown away! If you're into Water Parks, and are in the area, check this one out. The health pools are also abundant and relaxing. So much to offer. Definitely worth the price of admission, which was about $19 for the day at current exchange rates ($4200 HUF)

When I found this place I never missed a weekend. It's great fun to come with friends!

Perfect weekend
