Becky_D, Aug 2024
I highly recommend this very informative tour of the beautiful palace and grounds.
Having easy access to the palace, as well as our guide, Max, made the tour memorable. He was knowledgeable and personable, and made the tour very informative as we made our way through the beautiful rooms. He provided all the background and history that brought this time in history to life. I must also comment that for such a large operation the facilities were very clean and accessible.
