“This was a great tour! Our tour guide, Evangelus was extremely accommodating for our requests and gave a great tour. We asked to be in the shade when possible because of the heat and he did great to try to accommodate this. He was promptly at the meeting point with a sign with our name. The tour was fascinating! I would recommend a guide for this place, otherwise you might not be able to grasp the significance of the palace. Overall a great tour and would recommend!”
