Loved visiting Holyrood Palace, so much history. The audio headsets were very helpful. Loved seeing all of the tapestries and how they lived and learned about how current royalty use the palace.

Interesting facts about Queen Elizabeth's bedroom: she covered a painting of a nude woman because she found it a bit indecent and hung a mirror in its place

Palace was beautiful. Gardens excellent and Abbey was interesting. Lots of information available, unfortunately my headphone wasn't working so well, so I had difficulty following the commentary.

We drove all the way back to Scotland from Belgium specifically to visit, after having been there last year but not being able to go inside due to lack of time. This time, I booked our tour of the Palace of Holyroodhouse right away. It was an extraordinary experience. As a huge fan of Mary, Queen of Scots, seeing this place so steeped in history was truly moving. The palace is magnificent, both inside and out, and still serves as a royal residence on certain occasions. The spring gardens are unforgettable: full of colorful flowers, intense scents, and a truly enchanting atmosphere. The only downside of the day was a £50 parking ticket for having one wheel on a faded, barely visible yellow line. Despite this, it’s an experience I highly recommend: it’s worth every minute of the visit.
    • 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.
