excellent experience made at 7 p.m., lasting 1 hour, with a modern boat with indoor part with large windows, so you can see everything without problems. of course in the evening the photos taken from inside do not come out without interference. You have to necessarily go up on deck. Inside there is a bar available for you to buy drinks. On the deck one was able to take pictures quite comfortably. The cruise was slow paced so it gave the opportunity to photograph everything without any problems and by turning in both sides, you miss nothing at all. Experience to be had, I was pleased with the quality and the cost.

An incredible place, very well organized. We stayed for 5 hours but it felt like we had arrived at the opening. I recommend it to everyone - magical moments. The only reason I haven't sent any more photos is because I left them in the closet, because for me the most important thing is to enjoy the place.

The spa itself was very nice, there was a long queue at the entrance and it was very crowded in the spa. Ok, it was New Year's Eve, hence the high number of visitors. If you were there in the off-season, it would certainly be quieter. But all in all an experience that you should do in Budapest

We had a great experience going to to Széchenyi baths in Budapest. We were a group of 8 adults and we pre-booked online through Headout. We arrived early (by 8.15am). It was a very fast and smooth entry and easy to locate our lockers etc. The staff were helpful. We would recommend arriving early (before 9.30am), it was still very quiet , not many people . We loved the outdoor baths, it was 2 degrees that morning and it snowed whilst we were in the hot baths! Very magical!! I would recommend you bring your own towel & flip flops. We had to purchase flip flops and they were $20 AUD each!! If you like privacy for changing it's also worth booking the private cabin. Overall an easy and fantastic fun experience!! Glad we did it!! (Our group was from Western Australia & UK).

The process of getting the tickets online was very easy. Once we arrived at the spa entry was seemless also. The instructions of how to get into our changing room were not the easiest to understand and no one had told us how to do it. We finally figured it out on our own. Getting the private and secure changing room was a real plus and a great feature of the spa. There was only one down side to the experience and that was the crowds. All the pools and saunas were very crowded. That did not make it a very peaceful nor a relaxing time.

The experience with Headout was great. 5*. Made booking our excursions so easy! The Baths themselves were overcrowded, we couldn't access all of it due to this. The inside smelt a bit like drains, some pools worse than others. That being said, it was not a bad experience and I'm glad we went!

The reservation was very easy through Headout and very useful to be able to access the tickets without internet, in this case it was not necessary, but I see it as a very useful feature for some cases. As far as the thermal baths are concerned, the experience was great and the fact of having a private cabin was very useful.

The ticketing experience with Headout was so easy and efficient. I found them online and booked with them straight away. I immediately received confirmation from them through WhatsApp with easy access to my tickets. The Szechenyi Thermal Baths experience was incredible. We loved it the heated outdoor pool. So many different options too, depending on the size and temperature of pool you prefer. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic evening seeing the sights along the Danube river in Budapest, all the buldings were lit up and it was a smooth ride on the boat. Good duration and great value for money. Would have been good to have some more viewing space, the downstairs was fully enclosed so difficult to take good photos through the glass and the upstairs was crowded and some of the view was obscured. No commentary on boat, you had to download the app and read it yourself which was difficult when also trying to see sights and take photos.

Since this is solely ticket delivery and audio guides, I cannot review the experience itself. Definitely great that you have an appointment respected by the people who deliver your tickets, and it was fortunate to have still found a place with one of these tours because the official tours were already all money out months before, which however made the experience cost almost twice as much. I generally do not recommend groups of Italians, so much as the audio guides are set to the language one chooses at the entrance. Visit itself conducted (in the sense of showing the way to go) exclusively by Parliament staff. The guide who delivers the tickets does not even enter during the visit. But I think, given the level of security, this is the case for all groups.

Cheapest price found online for the Budapest Parliament. The host was waiting at the place indicated in the email and took care of registering our entry to the Parliament and giving us the physical ticket upon surrender of the document. The tour lasts about thirty minutes and an audio guide is provided since the Parliament guide only points the way.

Finding the right person to exchange tickets is not the easiest thing to do. All the explanations are in English, even though they're aimed at French people who don't necessarily speak the language. I don't see the added value of the agency - we could have booked directly on the Parliament website.

Regarding the cruise as expected, the only thing depending on the time of year (especially in winter because of the cold) would go well in advance to queue and find a good place on the deck and to appreciate the views (we were 10 minutes before we were the last), although for the photos it is 100 times better to go up to the open part. I missed the free welcome drink, with all the people that were there I don't think it would cost much and other cruises for a very similar price offer it. About the visit to the parliament, the truth is great, the audio guide worked well, they leave you enough time in each room to enjoy the visit and you can leave your coats for free in a checkroom (where the staff is exceptionally friendly).

3/5

The directions said to arrive at least 20 minutes early, we arrived half an hour early and were waiting 40 minutes at 3⁰C in line because the boat did not arrive, and when it arrived they started smoking and we had to keep waiting in the cold by the river.

It is well managed and well organized. The best views are from the top of the boat but it is very cold. The audio guide is downloading an app on your cell phone and bring headphones.

Very nice visit to the budapest parliament, a famous monument in the capital. A 1-hour visit with an audio guide in French, which was very good. However, the meeting point wasn't very well indicated, so we had to call to find it...

Booking was seamless. Ongoing contact is so easy compared to other providers. Booked the incorrect ticket for an excursion. Rozi (Budapest Parliament tour) resolved. Refund arrived the next day. Excellent ongoing communication via WhatsApp. Can't fault the service. 10/10 all the way from start to finish.

Guided tour of a parliament The organizer waits for you outside parliament at the bottom of the stairs where the ticket booths are. Don't be surprised, the organizer will ask you for your passport or identity card while he collects the tickets, then gives them back to you.

Very good boat tour with great views of the city. The boat had a few blankets which was good given that at the time we went it was really windy and cold however if you are not the first to board, you will not get them. You could get to the top of the boat to see the view but overall if you stayed inside you also had a pretty good view of the city and could take nice photos. We really liked it.

The tour was really a private tour to all the highlights of the city. Both sides of the Danube were covered and we had plenty of time to take photos at the stops. Elisabeth was a charming and very knowledgeable guide. The tour was conducted in the language of our choice. Stefan steered us safely through the evening traffic. Many thanks for both 🙏. We were also able to do the Danube trip the next day. We were given the tickets. All in all, the booking was really successful.

About the Danube River

The Danube River is Europe’s second-longest river, meandering through 10 countries. Originating in Germany's Black Forest, it flows southeastward, carving its way through Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, and others before emptying into the Black Sea.
