Tours in English at 10 am, noon, 1 pm and 2 pm, but they were sold out for the day when we arrived at 11.00 am. Don't think you can book in advance, so best to arrive early. more

On a recent visit to Budapest my family & i queued for approx 20 mins in the heat outside the Parliament building then discovered when reaching the ticket office that holders of EU passports could visit the place for free.

The rest of the building (even the... more
