great experience! Palace is amazing and the audio guide in the wegotrip app helped a lot! clear navigation, pleasant voice and useful information without which I wouldn't fully appreciate the grandeur

We loved this experience and it was useful having an audio guide. We have found the absence of English being spoken in tourist sites in this region difficult. The interior of the palacio swept us away. Well worth visiting
