A little disappointing as I went on a Sunday and some attractions on the list were closed and the Palace off limits due to the swearing in of the new PM. Also the description of inclusions is disingenuous. It states a whole bunch of entrance to attractions inclusions but in reality none of those places even has an entrance fee, they are all free. In retrospect it would probably have been cheaper just to get taxis between locations or take public transit.

This is a lovely quaint place to visit. Away from the city and clean fresh air. Very picturesque place. Not a very big place to see but it's a good visit.
