Masterpiece of the Romanian people - This Casa Populi palace is majestic, imposing and immense. It can be visited are by reservation with private tour, With its 1000 rooms today it is the seat of the Senate. The dictator Nicolae Ceauşescu had it built and demanded that only Romanian materials be used. 365,000 m2, also goes underground for 16 meters. To build it, an area equal to one fifth of Bucharest, 4.5 km long and 2 km wide, was demolished. A large anti-nuclear bunker, capable of withstanding an 8° Richter earthquake and 2 consecutive atomic bombs. 1000 m3 of marble, 550,000 t of concrete, 700,000 t of steel, 2800 chandeliers and 220,000 m2 of carpets.

Worth a look - Great tour lead by a guide from the parliament
Amazing building with so much to see
Only shame was there were people on the tour who kept talking making it difficult to hear the guide

Very pretty building despite the rain - I am amazed at the vast size of the building. We just touched about 2% of the building. It is used now as parliamentary and also for business with the government or professional conventions.

Solid Tour - This tour is a solid option for reserving a spot on the official Palace of Parliament tour without having to call the business day before or purchase a ticket same-day. I enjoyed seeing several stately rooms and grand halls while learning about the iconic building's history. However, I was disappointed to learn that it's only possible to visit the parliamentary chambers during the summer recess.

Good guided tour, but organization to be clarified better before arrival - The service mainly allows you to avoid the queue for the purchase of entrance tickets and be accompanied to the starting point of the tour, which is then carried out by an official guide of the palace. However, it is important to pay attention to an organizational aspect: only a few hours before the experience you are notified via WhatsApp that you must arrive at the agency at least half an hour before the time indicated on the ticket, otherwise you will lose the right to participate in the tour. This information should be clearly indicated already on the voucher.
After check-in, you reach the entrance of the palace on foot. The guided tour is large and well structured, lasts about an hour and is rich in information. However, it should be borne in mind that a total of about two hours should be allowed, of which one hour is taken up by check-in, walking and security checks.

Okay enough service - This vendor merely provides the ticket. The tour and guide are all regulated and provided by the venue directly. The attendants at the meet up point who checked us in and walked us to the venue weren't very pleasant and not particularly professional. Otherwise, they provided a ticket on time, so met thier obligations. As for the Palace and tour, the vendor didn't control that, so I'll reserve my feedback about that for elsewhere.

Disappointing- go to the Parliament directly for tickets! - Disappointing. No point booking through them - you turn up at their office 10 mins away from the Parliament, then walk as a group to Parliament, loiter and then go in with everyone else who turns up directly to the Parliament. Absolutely no point booking and detouring to the office, when you can go straight to the Parliament and get tickets there. The tour itself was decent (note, the guide is from the Parliament not this company). This is basically just a way of pre booking tickets, in future I’d recommend anyone just goes directly and gets them on the day from the Parliament building (there’s a specific queue for not booked). Not even friendly people, literally don’t see any merit. Was a disappointing experience to be honest. Just glad the tour itself was pretty decent.

This tour is not well... - This tour is not well organized the meeting point is difficult to find , I can’t even see the names of the street they need to put clear street signs and better have the meeting site in parliament itself .

Not worth it - This is just a way to book advance tickets, which unfortunately are not available to book from the Palace of the Parliament itself. What happens is that you go to this operator’s office about 10 mins walk from the Palace. You check in there. Then they walk to you the Palace, they take you in, they buy your tickets and then you go with the guide and the tour offered by the Palace. However, it seems there are plenty of tickets available so I would not worry about not finding tickets the day of. We visited on 12/29, during winter break and the first they they opened after Christmas holidays, and they had plenty of tickets. And they run guided tours every 15 mins. So best to just go there and get the tickets yourself.
