Amazing experience! - Take this tour! Small group, informative, kind guide and delightful interaction! Came with my adult daughter and loved the walk around the village before entering the castle grounds. Fantastic stories and insight through castle and the gardens. Felt like we were getting a back story! Absolutely loved it!

Don't get ill - I am warning about this company. If you are ill or need medical attention, better make sure you are hospital bound as you will NOT get a refund. DISGRACEFUL.
