Visiting the Széchenyi Baths was amazing! The staff were very welcoming. The best part is having access to private changing rooms where you can leave your belongings and fully enjoy the setting without worrying about anything else. There are indoor and outdoor pools with water temperatures over 34°C There’s a pool for swimming laps and others just for relaxing with jets of varying intensities. We were lucky to have sunshine—it was fantastic. However, by late morning it was crowded, so I recommend going early. As for the tour of the Parliament, it was spectacular to see! It’s a must-see if you’re visiting Budapest.

The audio-guided tour of the Hungarian Parliament Building was essential for understanding the significance of this architectural masterpiece and its importance in Hungarian history. It is a beautiful building that houses statues of the kings and Queen Maria Theresa of Austria, as well as the Crown of Hungary. The visit to the Upper House was also very interesting. I recommend always booking in advance, as this is a very popular tour and you risk not being able to get in if you don’t plan ahead. IMPORTANT: Don’t miss the visit to the ’56 Memorial in the Parliament Square, so as not to forget history and to understand the present.

Three days before the visit to the Parliament, I was informed by email about the meeting point and the time scheduled. The hostesses were on time and explained what to do clearly. After collecting our documents, they picked up the tickets and handed them out in a short while. We spared time and avoided queues. Awesome organization!

I had a truly special, fun, and lively experience! The dome with the jewels and the crown was truly breathtaking during the changing of the guard! Booking was really easy and provided very detailed information about ticket pickup locations—I’ll definitely buy more tickets through them.

We absolutely loved this tour! From the very beginning, everything was well organized, and when we were welcomed, everything was clear. The tour itself was well-paced and well-structured, as were the audio guides. The palace is magnificent and makes you want to come back...

Very smooth entry process for us as non-EU nationals, with the assistant handling all the ticketing. Given the huge volume of visitors, the timed entry times worked very well, giving everyone in our entry group sufficient time to take in all the highlights of the building.

    Excellent booking service for the Budapest Parliament Building, which was fully booked on its official website. Through Headout, we were able to purchase tickets for the tour at a higher price. We were met outside the entrance by two staff members who, working efficiently, checked our group’s documents and picked up the tickets at the ticket office. Once we received the tickets, we entered for the tour.
