This was my 5th visit to Edinburgh and finally got the opportunity to visit the palace! The building itself lived up to my expectations but our guide -Jorges - made it more than I expected! His knowledge of history, art, the building and the royal family was evident but his personality & delivery brought it all to life! It was t truly memorable experience!

Well worth a visit to Holyroodhouse Palace. A seamless entry with a small group tour led by knowledgeable guides makes for an enjoyable, relaxing tour of this historical site. Personal favorites of the interior was the drawing room and the bed chamber of Mary Queen of Scots.
