Hungarian Parliament Guided Tour
Following the completion of your security check and the presentation of your skip-the-line ticket at the ticket office, you will be guided to the main staircase, a stunning place of the confluence of multiple staircases with red carpets, beautiful lighting of lamp posts, and statues.
You will then reach the Dome Hall where you will find the Crown Jewels, which were returned by the United State a few decades ago. Your guide will accompany you to the Old Upper House Hall, known as the House of Magnates. With its arches, vaults, and pillars, this hall resembles a cathedral!
Széchenyi Spa
Known for its 15 indoor pools and 3 open-air bathing facilities, the Széchenyi Spa is the largest in all of Europe. The outdoor thermal pool which has a running temperature of 40°C will keep you warm during the cold winter days!
The Széchenyi Spa is fed by the city's extensive underground hot spring network. Starting with the Roman Empire, which created their own bathing culture in the area that is now Budapest from the 1st to the 5th century, this hidden jewel has always drawn people and cultures. Get ahead of the line and enjoy the ultimate rejuvenating experience at this healing spa!
Pálinka Museum
Visit a hidden gem in the heart of the city to sample the famous Hungarian Palinkas. Different from whiskey or vodka, palinka is made exclusively from different types of fruits and has a pleasant aromatic smell. Learn all about the history of the delicious beverage as you enjoy a guided tour of Pálinka Museum and a one-of-a-kind interactive exhibition. Then, relish in the taste of one of the best samples of palinka (spirits; non- alcoholic drinks are also available).
