Great way to see the highlights - Julie, our guide, was great. She clearly explained the history and was funny/enthusiastic. Loved that the company gave a time/place to meet up and was there on time with a small flag to easily see our tour guide. It was very professional.

The Worst Tour Guide I Have Ever Had - I am surprised to give this low a score for this tour, as the previous reviews and ratings were positive. Unfortunately, our experience was anything but. I went with my family hoping to learn a lot about this beautiful palace. However, our tour guide had other ideas. I don’t completely recall our tour guide’s name, but I think it was Francesco. Right from the beginning, the first impression was bad: a sad energy combined with a lack of a greeting and introduction. Throughout the whole 1.5hr tour, we learned very little about the palace and its history. Our guide instead chose to ramble aimlessly, speaking about nothing in particular and glossing over important facts and history, if mentioning any at all. Overall, we left the palace no more knowledgeable than when we started, feeling thoroughly annoyed and as though we had wasted our time and money. If you choose the English option for this tour, pray that you don’t get the same guide!
