Important Information

The tour is not private, but shared. If the time slot you choose is not available, you will be transferred to another time slot on the same day. These changes are beyond our control. Therefore, by making the reservation, you acknowledge this possible change, and we inform you to avoid subsequent complaints or refund requests, which will not be considered. Example: If you choose the 12:30 pm time slot and the ticket office of the Palace closes at that time, you will be transferred to the next available time slot, at 13:30 pm. Thank you for your understanding. Skip-the-line included means you will be in the fast track line, not that there will be no one in front of you. It is advisable not to book tours on the same day with close time slots. Important notice for last-minute bookings (on the same day or overnight): in case of unavailability, the client will be booked for the following day after the reserved date.
