Explore Budapest’s Parliament with an audio guide, from Kossuth Square memorials to the Dome Hall and Crown Jewels.

“We were a little confused as where to meet the guide as there are 2 entrances outside the visitors centre next to each other . This just needs to be clarified on the meeting point instructions..it is not the entrance on the riverside . The guide who met us outside was very informative and went through the ticket procedure in detail . The visit was absolutely AMAZING. The only negative was that it was a little short and we felt it was quite pricey for what we paid .”
