Excellent tourguide - I was fortunate enough to receive an excellent tour guide for this tour who knew a lot of information about the places we would visit. I could ask questions and learn much from the tour guide who brought me to the castles. The castles themselves are definitely worth visiting: it was an experience to actually see the state in which so many horrendous acts have been performed
