At first, I was surprised that the email didn't contain a QR code or barcode ticket like other apps, but when I arrived at the entrance, I went to the ticket counter and showed them my reservation number and company name, and they gave me the tickets. As a suggestion, it would be nice if they enabled virtual tickets so you don't have to queue to get your ticket, but other than that, it's great. I recommend it.

The audio guide for children was great - specifically (and in contrast to similar audio guides elsewhere, in world) the audio guide was EASY to follow (pictures / order of rooms on guide made this intuitive for children) and each audio clip was SUCCINCT - ie detailed enough to teach them something / enhance their experience, yet short enough to maintain their attention.

Fabulous and well curated experience. Audio guide was very good and staff super helpful. I would highly recommend this attraction. You can race through it in around about an hour which i had intended to do but as it was so good I ended up staying there well over two hours and if it had been a little warmer would have spend more time visiting the grounds.

Fantastic experience at the King's Gallery yesterday. From the entry staff to the cafe workers and all the art in between, this was a superb visit. The exhibition itself was incredible and the sense of time you get from viewing drawings from 600 years ago is outstanding. I was certainly inspired to try and improve my beginner level drawing.

The tour of Holyrood palace was very interesting , informative and enjoyable. Loved the short recorded interview with Anne and Edward. The walk around the abbey ruins and garden was good despite the time of year. The drawings exhibition is really for those with a true interest in the subject - appeared introspective to me.

Indulge in the regal splendor of the Holyroodhouse Palace, the residence of His Majesty in Scotland, and explore the Throne Room, used for royal receptions.

Enjoy a leisurely stroll through the Palace Gardens, set against the backdrop of Arthur's Seat, a dormant volcano, and see if you can spot medicinal plants.

Step into the 18th-century world of fashion at The King’s Gallery, located within the Palace precincts, and discover centuries' worth of royal art.

Uncover the glitz and glam of Georgian fashion at the Style & Society: Dressing the Georgians exhibit and don't miss the King George 1V's jeweled sword.

Fun fact: On the day of the Annual Garden Party at the Palace of Holyroodhouse, approximately 15,000 cups of tea are consumed.

The audio guide is very good and the place is worth visiting. The worst part was the lady at the entrance who checked bags and had little patience despite seeing that we didn't understand what she was saying.

The palace is very beautiful as well as historically significant. The gardens are gorgeous. Too bad that you are not allowed to take pictures inside.
