The palace is definitely one of the must-see attractions in Budapest. The tour is conducted in groups using an audio guide pre-set to the desired language, and it is a guided tour, meaning that each group is escorted by staff along the route, which is therefore mandatory and not self-guided. The audio guide starts automatically in the various rooms to provide all the information about what you are seeing. The tour lasts about 45–50 minutes; at some points, you might feel rushed to take photos, but overall it is an excellent experience, including the organization.

El tour estuvo super organizado, Rosie y Leah were waiting for the groups as planned. Immediately they told us where to wait. The tour took aprox 50 minutes and it was worthy ! The Parliament is an extraordinary building full of treasures and amazing decoration. The Stairs and the curtains show a splendor of Budapest in all ways. The surrounding gardens and sculptures put more beauty and value to the tour.

The organization was seamless—no lines. They collected the participants’ documents (which they, of course, returned) and came back with the tickets after about 10 minutes. We entered right on time, and the audio guide was already ready after security!

A very well-organized tour of the Parliament. It’s a bit puzzling that photography is prohibited in the room where St. Stephen’s Crown is displayed, since that’s the main attraction of the place. The audio guide is well-produced. I highly recommend it!

    Worth a visit if you aren't paying too much. Overalll the tour doesn't take too long and the building ia very impressive. I accidentally picked the wrong date and lost the value on my tickets the agency don't offer any way to help. I went the morning I wanted in person at 7:45am and got same date tickets at cost. The Parliament releases same day tickets daily at cost.

    The audio guided tour was good. However, the collection of tickets was a real pain. We arrived on time, but have to wait. Non EU citizens do not need identity proof, but we were asked to bring proof. We are told we have to be there before 2.30pm or no entry. But ended up waiting till 2.45pm to enter.
