“Excellent guide, good experience to see the parliament from the inside”

“Booking this way allowed us to visit the Palace of Parliament without booking in advance via a phone number where everyone is often unreachable. However, the instructions were terrible, leaving us standing at a place where a guide never showed up. There is no one from this company who comes to meet you. They just expect you to figure out that you'll be added to a list that the check-in desk has, and that a guide from the venue itself will take you. That guide is unaffiliated with the company doing this booking.”

“Tartassari per arrivare un quarto alle 11 perché bisogna prendere i biglietti e passare i controlli. Riusciamo ad arrivare nonostante fosse stato fornito un punto di ritrovo sbagliato. Non troviamo nessuno, chiamamo, e uno che non parla italiano riesce a stento a dire in inglese che siccome il tour inizia alle 11:30, verrà a prenderci un paio di minuti prima. Risultato: 45 minuti di attesa al gelo e pioggia. Per fortuna la guida era un ragazzo liceale volontario affiliato al Parlamento e non a GYG, confidiamo nelle nuove generazioni.”
