We enjoyed the visit. We had been told in advance that the ticket would be forfeited if we didn't get there on time. As our train arrived at 11.40 am, we "ran" to the castle. The stress would not have been necessary as the people there were very relaxed. We were refused a rebooking half an hour later and the ticket was 10 zloty more expensive with them. We could have saved ourselves all this if we hadn't booked through them...

Our visit to the castle was very nice, but we had to pay extra for the audio-guide, even though it was indicated in our booking that it was included. They told us that our ticket was not valid for both. So be sure to get all the information you need before selling tickets.

Our online purchase let us "skip the line" for the audio guide and start our tour right away. The audio guide is excellent. Although the ticket info says 3.5 hours, we spent closer to five hours touring the complex. If you are arranging your own transportation (we took a train from Sopot) plan your arrival to be an hour a head of your ticketed entrance. The castle is well worth a visit.
