If you don’t have to much time, this is the perfect tour! You get to see some important and beautiful rooms of the palace and also the garden. Then you could walk by yourself to the Glorietta (which is a the top of the garden).

I lucked out with having an incredible tour guide, Ally and a really great group as well.A trained historian, Ally really made the palace come alive - and made me forget we were on our feet for so long. I really enjoyed listening to her and how warm and accessible she made the history I love come out. I highly, highly recommend this tour to any history buff who wants to learn more and receive a semi-private tour.
