il parlamento andava assolutamente visto. Se lo confrontiamo con altri tour fatti in questo viaggio ci ha deluso un po’ perché è stato il più corto, quindi il più costoso e siccome c’erano degli eventi in corso non ci hanno fatto vedere alcune sale che erano in programma. Poi la guida è stata sostituita al ultimo momento, avremmo preferito Roberto. Cristina non usava un microfono che sarebbe stato utile e alla fine ci ha raccontato la sua triste perdita. Non so se era proprio il caso di farlo.

La vista en si, dura unos 30/40 minutos. Aunque pone una hora. Te muestran 5/6 salones con explicaciones escuetas. Muy caro para lo que ves y explica el guia. Son 27 €. Sacando el ticket allí son 60 leí (12€) y te hacen la misma ruta con un funcionario del parlamento. En fin!!

The tour itself lasts about 30/40 minutes. Although it says it takes an hour, they show you 5/6 rooms with brief explanations. It's very expensive for what you see and what the guide explains. It's €27. Getting a ticket there costs 60 lei (€12), and you'll be given the same tour with a parliamentary official. Anyway!

Hemos confirmado que el tour se llevó a cabo cumpliendo con los horarios especificados en nuestra web. Sentimos si has tenido otra sensación. Por otra parte, siempre acordamos el mismo precio con nuestro operador en destino, pero no podemos prever ofertas que se hagan respecto a las entradas oficiales en el propio lugar. Translate this opinion into English.

We have confirmed that the tour took place according to the schedule specified on our website. We apologize if you had a different feeling. Furthermore, we always agree on the same price with our operator at the destination, but we cannot predict any offers regarding official tickets on-site. Opinion translated. Show original.

Tour ben organizzato, la nostra guida è stata Carmen,gentile e disponibile. Peccato aver potuto visitare solo una piccola parte del Palazzo, si potrebbe pensare di integrare pure l altro tour che prevede la visita delle stanze del senato, anche perché il costo è abbastanza alto. Translate this opinion into English.

Well organized tour, our guide was Carmen, kind and helpful. It's a pity that we could only visit a small part of the Palace, we could think about integrating the other tour that includes a visit to the Senate rooms, also because the cost is quite high. Opinion translated. Show original.

El parlamento de Bucarest es un edificio impresionante. Eso sí, la visita está un poco limitada porque solo ves una pequeña parte. La dirección que nos indicaron en el email de confirmación era incorrecta. Al contactar con los organizadored nos contestaron un poco brusco pero conseguimos hablar con el guía por teléfono y nos indicó como llegar. El guía ahí fue muy amable y sus explicaciones estuvieron muy bien. Translate this opinion into English.

The Bucharest Parliament is an impressive building. However, the visit is somewhat limited because you only see a small portion. The address given in the confirmation email was incorrect. When we contacted the organizers, they responded a bit abruptly, but we managed to speak to the guide on the phone, and he gave us directions. The guide there was very friendly and his explanations were excellent. Opinion translated. Show original.

En general la visita al parlamento ha sido entretenida e interesante. Nuestro guía, Daniel nos ha ido explicando muy bien la historia alrededor del Parlamento y detallando curiosidades de las estancias visitadas. Muy majo y dispuesto en todo momento a responder preguntas. Translate this opinion into English.

Visita sbrigativa, condotta senza fornire molti particolari architettonici e politici di una struttura che già di per sé risulta poco interessante, a parte le dimensioni degne di uno spirito megalomane, e visitabile per una parte minima. Sproporzionato il costo con la durata e la accuratezza.

I contenuti spiegati dalle guide sono quelli che, con il tempo e l'esperienza, hanno capito risultare di maggior interesse per i partecipanti. Ci dispiace che il tour non sia stato all'altezza delle aspettative.

La actividad no estuvo mal, fuimos a ver el interior pero había algunas salas cerradas debido a eventos (esto no es culpa de la agencia asi que no pasa nada) igualmente hubiera estado bien verlas para el precio que tiene la actividad. Lo que marcó la diferencia y nos gustó mucho fue el guía que nos tocó, Christian. Tenía muy buen español y ha sido muy amable con nosotros durante toda la experiencia. Sabía mucho del Palacio y ha sido un placer coincidir con él. Actividad imprescindible! Translate this opinion into English.

The activity was not bad, we went to see the interior but there were some rooms closed due to events (this is not the agency's fault so it's ok) but it would have been nice to see them for the price of the activity. What made the difference and we really liked was the guide we had, Christian. He had very good Spanish and he was very kind to us throughout the experience. He knew a lot about the Palace and it was a pleasure to meet him. A must do! Opinion translated. Show original.

El guia perfecto la verdad, la visita ...corta cortisima se ve muy poco la verdad. No se si merece la pena x l precio gastado. X cierto en el punto de encuentro eramos 10 personas, fuimos hacia alli y cdo llegamos n la entrada speraban 3 personas k se unieron al grupo....no entendi si se acoplaron x la cara o nos esperaban alli. Deberia haber aclarado Translate this opinion into English.

The guide was perfect, the visit was really short, you see very little, really. I don't know if it's worth it for the price spent. By the way, at the meeting point there were 10 of us, we went there and when we arrived at the entrance there were 3 people waiting to join the group... I didn't understand if they joined us for the sake of it or if they were waiting for us there. I should have clarified. Opinion translated. Show original.

The guide of the parliament told us very interesting details but you might end the tour with an empty feeling because you only see 6% of the building. I think it's still worth it. On the side of the organizational person for the tours it was a bit messy and delayed but maybe it was bad luck on our side.

El parlamento por dentro precioso, realmente duró menos de una hora la visita ya que te hacen ir a un punto de encuentro, después entras al parlamento te hacen esperar 15-30 minutos en una sala dónde puedes tomar café. Resulta que una pareja entró por su cuenta costándole la entrada 15 euros allí y se unieron con nosotros (lo permitió el guía, sin ningñun coste adicional), me parece demasiado caro para lo que es.

The Parliament is beautiful inside, the visit actually lasted less than an hour as they make you go to a meeting point, then you enter the Parliament and you have to wait 15-30 minutes in a room where you can have coffee. It turns out that a couple went in on their own, costing them 15 euros to get in, and they joined us (the guide allowed it, without any additional cost), I think it's too expensive for what it is.

El guía te recoge en su agencia de transportes y te deja en la entrada del Parlamento, alli organiza al grupo y se preocupa que nadie se quede descolgado. A la salida , ya no está. en el Parlamento los guia otra persona de la institución. La actividad es interesante pero en relación con el precio, no lo veo muy ajustada. Demasiado caro para lo poco que se ve. Pero bueno si no se consigue entrar al Parlamento de otra forma, es buena opción.

The guide picks you up at his transport agency and drops you off at the entrance to Parliament. There he organises the group and makes sure that no one is left behind. When you leave, he is no longer there. In Parliament, another person from the institution guides you. The activity is interesting but in relation to the price, I don't see it as very reasonable. Too expensive for the little you see. But if you can't get into Parliament any other way, it's a good option.

Hay que verla. Mejor verla que no, pero no es nada extraordinaria. Es cara para lo que se ofrece. La duración es de unos 40 minutos y no de una hora como se especifica. La información, wikipedesca. Un conjunto de datos. Pero como digo, que nadie te la cuente, pero no esperes maravillas.

You have to see it. Better to see it than not, but it's nothing extraordinary. It's expensive for what's offered. It lasts about 40 minutes and not an hour as specified. The information is Wikipedia-esque. A collection of data. But as I say, don't let anyone tell you about it, but don't expect wonders.

It's a 90 min tour with an official guide from the Parliament. There are security controls at the entrance, pretty much lile the ones in an airport, and then a second control where an officer scans your ID/Passport. Although the civitstis guides are not the one leading the visit, it is thanks to them that the group can enter the building. And the visit is definitely worth it, even if you only see like 5-6 rooms at most.

Muy buena visita, el guía nos ha acompañado desde el punto de encuentro hasta dentro del Parlamento.

Nous avons apprécié la disponibilité de la personne chargée de gérer les accueils ainsi que sa réactivité face aux difficultés que nous avons rencontrées pour nous rendre sur le site. Quant au guide, il était très bien, très professionnel dans sa manière de mener la visite. A l'écoute et bien veillant. Pour les deux, score maximum. Translate this opinion into English.

El edificio es espectacular, aunque la visita únicamente te enseñan una serie de salas (al final todas te parecen igual), de todo el conjunto del edificio que es enorme. La guía es correcta, parece que le dan al “play” y suelta el discurso que corresponde Translate this opinion into English.

The building is spectacular, although the tour only shows you a series of rooms (in the end they all seem the same) of the entire building, which is enormous. The guide is correct, it seems that they press “play” and give the corresponding speech. Opinion translated. Show original.

La visita guiada la realiza personal propio del Parlamento, la empresa que se anuncia en Civitatis sólo realiza el acompañamiento hasta allí y gestión de las entradas. Al margen de esto, la visita es realmente interesante, las dimensiones de las salas y el lujo de cada una de ellas es impresionante. Sólo se visita un 4% del edificio en una hora, lo que te da una idea de lo inabarcable del edificio. Translate this opinion into English.

The guided tour is conducted by Parliament's own staff; the company advertised on Civitatis only provides accompaniment to the building and ticket management. Apart from this, the visit is really interesting; the size of the rooms and the luxury of each one of them is impressive. Only 4% of the building is visited in an hour, which gives you an idea of how vast the building is. Opinion translated. Show original.

Consiglio questo tour tramite agenzia perché ad agosto c è sempre maggiore affluenza. La signora dell agenzia ci ha accompagnato davanti all ingresso del Parlamento dopodiché se ne è andata Una volta entrati dopo i controlli dei documenti ecc , siamo stati accolti dalla guida MARIUS. Un ragazzo molto molto simpatico e gentile. Parla bene inglese e con lui un ora volata letteralmente! Una delle migliori guide incontrate nella mia vita! Comunque ottimo giro ne vale la pena Translate this opinion into English.

I recommend this tour through an agency because in August there is always more turnout. The lady from the agency accompanied us to the entrance of the Parliament and then left. Once inside, after checking documents etc., we were welcomed by the guide MARIUS. A very very nice and kind guy. He speaks good English and with him an hour literally flew by! One of the best guides I have met in my life! Anyway, great tour, worth it Opinion translated. Show original.

Visita de hora y 15 minutos aprox. por algunas de las salas principales del parlamento. La guía correcta, bastante buen nivel de español aunque explicaciones algo simples y superficiales, muy centradas en los puramente material y constructivo del edificio. Echamos de menos mayor profundidad en el contexto histórico y circunstancias que rodean o han rodeado al Parlamento en las sucesivas etapas, desde su construcción hasta hoy. Translate this opinion into English.

Visit of approximately one hour and 15 minutes. through some of the main rooms of parliament. The correct guide, a fairly good level of Spanish although somewhat simple and superficial explanations, very focused on the purely material and constructive aspects of the building.
