Informative interesting well done
Tour guide Steven was excellent, full of great information and entertaining.
This tour was much better for us to do than to just tour the castle on our own.

Summary:
We arrived at the gathering point around 8.40. Our guide, Stephen, was there, and he briefly explained how the tour would go. Everything was on time. Stephen shown us the best photo sites and told us history of the place in a fun way. My kids really loved it. And they followed the Man in the hat. The castle itself was full of people, but Stephen prepared us for all of that. After the tour, a carriage took us down to the town. We all had a really nice time. Thanks Stephen 😊
