A wonderful experience with a guide who helped us complete all the necessary formalities to enter the parliament. We entered at the scheduled time. After getting our audio guides in our own language, a parliament guide led the group along the indoor route, stopping in each room long enough to listen and admire. Highly recommended experience.

A wonderful experience throughout. Ben our guide was knowledgeable, articulate and humorous. This was definitely a fantastic opportunity to learn about this beautiful city and see the amazing sights like Fisherman's Bastion and Buda Castle district. The tour of the breathtaking Parliament building is not to be missed!

Punctual tour, started on time and the schedule was respected. Unfortunately, the tour was only available in English and, above all, it was just a whistle-stop tour of some of the city's main sights. You then need to revisit them, but certainly with more appreciation thanks to their explanation. The ticket to the parliament was fine, though the visit is managed by the parliament itself and not by them.

Well organized and run tour. Saw all the sights listed and the guide moved at a good pace keeping everyone on time. We shared the bus with another tour group that was in a different language which did not impact our English tour at all. I would have really preferred that we keep the audio sets on as we toured each sight instead our guide would talk when we had assembled at a specific spot. The problem with that is as we are walking to a spot people beside him are asking questions about our surroundings, history, etc etc whic only the immediate people around him can hear. Our guide quite deliberately told us to leave our audio guides in the bus. I was disappointed with this and did tell him as much. Unfortunately you Miss a lot of details this way.

This was the perfect start of our citytrip! We saw all the highlights, we've learned about the histories and the best placets to visit in the next day. Little group with private guide was ideal. The last stop was a visit at the parlement: no waiting line, all tickets were sold out... but we just could wak inside. This was the perfect and of this vist!
