I booked the combo ticket for my trip in Sept. The Parliament guided tour was excellent. It's conducted in small batches and you get audio guides which provide detailed explanations in multiple languages. The building from the inside is absolutely stunning - it looks more like a palace. Would highly recommend taking this tour, which has to be prebooked due to limited seats. The Gellert bath was ok, as in the bath, sauna and pool facilities were fine but felt no different unless someone specifically tells you it is thermal water. The locker rooms and shower area was quite clumsy to be honest, although to be expected from a place that is so frequently visited by thousands of people.

The cruise was very interesting but I did not feel there was much staff available for directions. For example, we had booked an audio guide but no one was there to give us directions on what to do to download it. Fortunately there were two Italian guys present, certainly more digitally savvy than us, who helped us download it. In short, perhaps the customer should be more pampered and taken care of. True, the cost was not high but that is not why the customer should be left to his fate. However, it was a nice cruise for what was seen. Budapest is indeed a beautiful city.

We particularly liked the audio guide, which had to be downloaded as an app. This plays the relevant sequences according to GPS localization. Unfortunately, there was no indication at the beginning, only in the e-mail, so that 95% of the guests apparently did not use it. It was also a shame that the guests who had a welcome drink were allowed onto the boat first, although some of them arrived much later. This meant that all the seats at the top of the boat were already occupied. But in itself recommendable 😊

    It is an experience that can not be described, totally necessary if you come to Budapest. My advice, take it at night and keep in mind that at 22:00 they turn off the lights of the city. You also have an audio guide that explains in several languages what you are seeing along the tour. The boat has bar service and is not too expensive.

    Cruise at 6:20 pm. Very pleasant moment, explanations via a website and if you don't feel like downloading an app, there are explanations, very nice staff at the start, stars in your eyes from the spectacle on offer. Definitely worth a visit.

    Really nice cruise. First half was exciting, then it became a bit dark after building illuminations were turned off at 22:00.
