Wonderful visit without a guide, although the price is much too high, but that's up to the city. Good tour with some very nice things to see

The artwork and architecture of the palace were very impressive. The ticket helped expedite our entry which saved us some time but not too much. There is no guide with this tour, which we maybe could've benefited from. Nevertheless, we enjoyed doing the self-guided tour and the palace was beautiful. It's worth the price.

Stunning art from wall to wall made it looks like an art gallery trapped in time. It was a great event and the all acess ticket plus skip the line really helped move through the venue before the crowds were too large.
