An excellent experience - My family and I loved the entire tour! We were not expecting the palace to be as beautiful as it was, and it was all real/restored items and not replicas. That was so impressive! Our guide was excellent and so knowledgeable about the history of Turin and the royal family. She had great insight into the areas we saw and she did a great job including my kids (7 and 11) by asking them questions along the way. We are so happy we did this tour!

Great Place, Great Guide! - Great tour with a great guide! Sofia was a great story teller, funny, and very informational. She brought more context to the places and things we were seeing than if we had gone on our own and read every sign. Would highly recommend visiting this place and having a tour!

Nice, interesting tour and knowledgable - We were a group of 6 pax so it was nice and easy to focus on our guide, Emanuella's, explanation. My son and I found it to be interesting to get to know so much more of Italian history. We would not so much if we had not taken a guided tour 😃

Disappointed - I wasn’t able to attend the tour because they had the royal palace blocked off due to some government official conference. I checked with the information booth 2 hours before the event and the employee told me all tours that day are cancelled due to this event and because I booked through an American company they wouldn’t have known. I explained this to Viator asking for a refund, they didn’t honor the circumstances. I’d recommend going through a local agency to that country you are traveling in order to book entertainment tickets.
