- The delivery is what makes this tour.
- The guide tells the story in the character of someone from the period:
- the queen
* a teacher of good manners
* a princess
* an architect
* a monk
* a coachman - That is what lets the children slip into the atmosphere and start seeing the palace as a living place rather than a museum.
