For me the most memorable part of the visit was the ability of our guide to help me see not only the art and architecture but to get a sense of how it was used by the owners when they lived there.

Passionate and knowledgeable guide, Federica provided us with essential context for understanding how the various rooms were used and the significance of the art in period, as well as the history and evolution of the palace. Highly recommend!

Very knowledgeable, the guy who had a lot to show us. In a way, there wasn’t quite enough time to do it all justice and probably you could spend a whole day in it. In retrospect I would’ve probably liked to have done a morning tour and spent the rest of the day, seeing the gardens and extra museums, et cetera, I think this Tour should be offered as a four hour tour to give them time to do the gardens et cetera as we didn’t appreciate that the gardens would finish at 5:30 pm
