When you book online do you need to book a certain date and time? It seems like you just buy a ticket and then it’s valid for 90 days after purchase so can you just turn up any day then to use it? Thank you

I didn’t see any audio guides and they had run out of English guides on the day we visited which were very simple with a map of the castle. I have seen online that it is possible to book a guide but I think it is a private tour.
