Galy was fantastic. One thing is to take a tour with someone who does it for work, and another is to be with someone who does it with passion, and that is her. Excellent!
We had a great tour by our guide Nallely! Very informative and pointed out so many details that were very interesting and fun. We got lost for over a half hour but Nallely helped guide us so quickly and efficiently we felt we didn’t miss a thing. Even with the rain she promised we would enjoy the visit and she was right! This Castle is a must see and hopefully you get our fantastic tour guide!
