SoloVerified booking3 weeks ago5/5The parliament was nice. Unfortunately AnnaMaria our guide was not pleasant. She just did her job. She wasn't friendly or approachable if someone had or wanted to ask questions. It made for an unpleasant experience.IIoannis K
CoupleVerified bookingAug 20265/5Great guided tour, our guide was perfect and very friendly. The duration is good as we saw everything that needed without anything unnecessary. I recommend it 100%.FFrederic S
CoupleVerified booking4 days ago5/5The guide of this palace of parliament tour was fantastic: he was very knowledgeable, kind and gave many personal anecdote (for example his parents refuse to take his tour, as they have suffered so much in the time period of building structure). The building itself is extremely significant for the relative recent history of Romania and a must visit. What can be improved is the clarification of where the entrance is. We arrived one hour early, but to the wrong entrance; as it was not clear where exactly it was. Then we walk outside the entire building for 50 minutes (in the massive heat) and barely made it to the correct entrance and tour. Include better description, mire specific links (for both weekdays and workdays) and more pictures. Thank you.CChristoph L
CoupleVerified booking4 days ago5/5In just a short time, we were able to take in so much of this incredibly large and unique building. You can still feel the spirit of communism there. The tour guide spoke excellent English and had us laughing a lot with her delightful sense of humor. The entire organization of the tour was also perfect. We received clear and sufficient information in advance, and were greeted right at the entrance by a staff member who took wonderful care of us. It’s a shame the hour went by so quickly. Highly recommended!SSohini C
CoupleVerified booking3 weeks ago4/5The tour in itself was great. The building is majestic, definitely worth a visit and the tour guide was superb, keeping everyone engaged from the beginning to the end. The only complaint I have is that the location needs to be more clearly mentioned. The Google location was pointing to a very far off gate, so it was a hassle for my old parents to walk to the meeting point. But once we reached, everything was smooth and the tour very enjoyable.
This tour allows you to explore the Palace of Parliament, Bran Castle, Peles Castle, and the medieval town of Brasov at a fraction of the cost.
