It was a very good idea to buy the two tickets together, because we organized the day with the beginning of the parliament, which is impressive outside and inside, the collection of the tickets was very easy and fast, although we thought it would start at 9:30 and finally it was at 9:45, you have to give an ID and then the group is accompanied by a person who guides you and marks times. In the hot springs was very fun and relaxing, we were from 16:30 to 20, the time flew by, the facilities were better than we imagined. Recommended 100% I think the locker is enough, and of course there are showers and it's warm inside.

The visit itself was very well organized and the parliament magnificent, On the other hand, the welcome left much to be desired: outside, waiting, information in English that was difficult for some to understand! IDs confiscated for 20 minutes ???? (Risk of fraud???). No explanation. Why not operate online? In short, we book online and it's worse than if we went straight to the ticket office! Sincerely

Although the initial meeting was a little chaotic due to the number of people trying to figure out where to go, the tour itself is very well organized and the presentation seamless. It is an extraordinary building and an absolute must see work of art. Hungarians should be very proud of this beautiful monument to Hungarian artisans, craftsmen, sculptors and all the individuals involved in its creation.

    Everything went as smoothly as possible, the only thing I found chaotic and confusing was returning the passes. The excursion is definitely worthwhile and booking a ticket in advance is a must. Being able to experience the parliament building from the inside with the audio guide was very spectacular and is highly recommended.

    The tour and building was beautiful but the woman host collecting identifications and checking people in was very unpleasant and rude. It was absolutely not necessary the way she spoke to and treated people.
