Great place to visit, there are free entry during last two work hours, but the lines then after crazy long. One of the most impressive palaces I ever visited. Was also lucky to visit the palace at the day off solemn guard change, that mostly happens on the first Wednesday off the month, but this time it was the second (can be moved because of weather or other stuff) and had a great view from the palace square, seeing all the guards and horses, that lasted for an hour.

It was great because, for an unusual situation, we were only 6 persons. That means that we had the opportunity to be closer to the guide and address him questions easily. The guide showed knowledge about everything and was really kind (Carlos). Audio technology surprised me (wireless). I think the name of the local tour company is IBE... recommended :)

The tour was great, and our tour guide was such an enthusiastic host as we ventured through the palace on Friday afternoon. Unfortunately we forgot to grab his name, however he turned our small history lesson into an engaging and humorous venture. We would definitely recommend this tour to those who are looking to learn more about Spain's royal history, but also indulge in something fun!!
