    Quisimos buscar tours en español y nos dijeron que no había, después vimos que si había. Así que tuvimos que tomar uno en inglés. La entrada cuesta 15 euros y el tour 10. El tour estuvo muy malo, la guía no tenía ni idea y se enojaba si le preguntabas cosas. En este país nos ha pasado mucho que los guías no tienen mucho conocimiento sobre la historia. El ser guía debería estar mucho más profesionalizado para que puedan contarnos los detalles de la historia y de los lugares históricos que estamos viendo. Es mejor que ustedes lean la historia por internet sobre este palacio y no pierdan 10 euros en guías con mala actitud.

    Having seen the art, pottery, jewelry, money, arms that were excavated at the palace, and the model recreation of the site at the museum before visiting the palace helped the ruins come to life. As impressive as the model was, physically walking the ruins helped us understand why it took 100 years and 35 different kings to construct this massive compound 1500 years before the birth of Christ. You can still see the remains of the earliest man made water and sewage piping systems, and the first known paved road in Europe. Our guide was exceptional with details for just about any questions we had. Comfortable shoes and a hat are a must for this tour. You can purchase water at the entrance to the site. This tour is worth the full day.

    This was awesome. The only thing I would change was the guide was too smart for my kids. She was wonderful and kind, but I had a hard time keeping up, because she was so smart. I throughly enjoyed the tour though, and I would recommend it.
