The palace is massive. Well worth a visit to take it all in, if you can. - Well worth a visit to the palace. It is incredible. To learn about the history of the palace (not so long ago) is really interesting.

Good tour, poor logistics information - Tour was very informative. The logistics, however were misleading. The tour email had the wrong meeting point. Also, we needed passports but there was no mention of this in the information we received.

Fraud - TOUR DID NOT TAKE PLACE BUT NO REFUND. Waited at the agreed meeting point (GPS coordinates from booking confirmation) 20 min BEFORE to 20 min AFTER. Also other tourists who booked the same tour. According to the organizer, we were supposedly not at the meeting point. Scam at its best. More than annoying.

Wasted money - Didn’t get to do the tour, poor instructions for the meeting point, when we got there no guide was waiting for us and we were sent back around to the front entrance of the palace to see if we could get on a different time. Waste of money.

Try another vendor, this one stunk! - Very disappointed. Meeting place unclear. Luckily someone walking by gave us, and others waiting for same tour, better information. Tour started 25 minutes late. What was to have been a maximum of 35 people turned into over 100. Difficult to hear guide in a large echoing room, but try doing it with a group that large! Impossible!
