Great communication following booking regarding meeting points etc. Both venues are stunningly beautiful and full of the history of budapest and Hungary. The Parliament tour is audio guided and takes around 45mins with plenty of opportunity to take pics. We also saw the changing of the guard which occurs each hour. The tour of St Stephens basilica was provided by a very knowledgeable local and we were even lucky enough to hear the organ playing as part of practice for a concert. The view at the top of st Stephens basilica is incredible, although not for the faint hearted if you don't like heights. There are lifts up & down, but to reach the top view there are stairs. Overall, this is a must do experience if visiting budapest

Fanni was clearly very knowledgeable about the Basillica and pointed out so much symbolism that would have been lost on us. My partner struggled with the fact that dhe spoke very quietly but we ultimately found the guide very helpful and interesting

Very enjoyable tour. Fanni, our guide, was very knowledgeable and clearly had a passion for both the history and art of the Basilica. She taught us about all the symbolic meanings within both the architecture and art in great detail which I really appreciateed. Was truly a worthwhile experience that I would recommend to everyone.

Exploring Budapest’s largest Basilica

Your tour begins with meeting your guide in front of the St. Stephen’s Basilica ticket office. With priority entry, skip the lines and step inside this neoclassical masterpiece. As you explore, admire the intricate frescoes, towering dome, marble columns, and vibrant stained-glass windows. Along the way, your guide will share the fascinating history of this revered landmark, from its architectural grandeur to its deep significance in Hungarian culture.

Terrace views and hidden treasures

Depending on your ticket, take an elevator to the panoramic terrace on your own or with a guide to enjoy breathtaking 360° views of Budapest, where you can see landmarks like the Danube River, Parliament, and Buda Castle. Next, venture into the treasury and historical exhibition, home to centuries-old religious treasures, royal liturgical objects, sacred relics, and revered artifacts such as the mummified right hand of St. Stephen.

Personalized experience with a private tour option

For a more exclusive visit, opt for a private guided tour with an English or Italian-speaking guide, where you’ll explore the Basilica, terrace, treasury, and exhibition with the undivided attention of your guide.
