What The Guided Walk Includes

A guided walk suits first-time visitors who want the grounds explained, not just the tower. The 1.5 to 3 hour tour adds context you would miss on your own.

The guided walk runs 1.5 to 3 hours, tracing the castle grounds, its moats and gates, with tower admission handled separately if you choose that option.

The guided walk covers the route, history and grounds with a guide at your side, but it does not include tower admission, so pair it with the entry ticket if you want to go up. The from-price shown is for the walk alone.

What The Walk Covers

If you only booked the guided walk and now want the tower too, the entry ticket covers one-time admission to both the Main Tower and the Toyotomi Stone Wall Museum, from $7.69.
