I am considering this castle to visit. when mentioning the fee, is it something you can purchase upon arrival or needs to be done in advance? does the fee include a general tour or is that something separate? note, I am aware of outside, 3rd party tour guided fees/excursions. thanks in advance for responding for I appreciate your time and information.
