The palace is definitely one of the must-see attractions in Budapest. The tour is conducted in groups using an audio guide pre-set to the desired language, and it is a guided tour, meaning that each group is escorted by staff along the route, which is therefore mandatory and not self-guided. The audio guide starts automatically in the various rooms to provide all the information about what you are seeing. The tour lasts about 45–50 minutes; at some points, you might feel rushed to take photos, but overall it is an excellent experience, including the organization.

My family and I had a fantastic time visiting the Parliament. The building really is beautiful and the guided tour provides a comprehensive view on the history and functions of it. Great that tours are available in many languages. The staff was also efficient in managing queue and keeping everything in order. Booking on Headout was easy and very convenient as well. Overall a great experience. Not to be missed when exploring Budapest.

El tour estuvo super organizado, Rosie y Leah were waiting for the groups as planned. Immediately they told us where to wait. The tour took aprox 50 minutes and it was worthy ! The Parliament is an extraordinary building full of treasures and amazing decoration. The Stairs and the curtains show a splendor of Budapest in all ways. The surrounding gardens and sculptures put more beauty and value to the tour.

The Parliament Building certainly was the highlight of our recent visit to Budapest. As beautiful as its exterior is, especially when viewed illuminated at night, those visitors fortunate to have booked the necessary advanced tickets for the interior tour will be treated to amazingly elegant architecture, blending the elegance of a royal palace along side a functioning governmental building. Highlights for us were the Grand Staircase with the intricate ceiling frescos, the Dome Hall with the guarded Hungarian Regalia, and the numerous statuettes throughout the halls and Chamber Lounges that depicted both important historical figures as well as more common occupations. The story behind the Chamber of Peers is fascinating, and the exhibition area, while not at all ornate, provided further insight into the construction and maintenance of the building as well as a photo op with the original dome soldier.

Visiting the Hungarian Parliament was truly one of the highlights of my trip to Budapest. The building is absolutely breathtaking, both from the outside and inside. The audio guided tour was very well organized, easy to follow, and provided many interesting historical facts about the architecture, the rooms, and the Hungarian heritage. The entry process with Headout was smooth and simple, with clear instructions and no stress at all. I especially loved seeing the beautiful halls, the grand staircase, and the incredible details everywhere. It was a memorable experience that I would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Budapest!
