Visit not clear, the direction of the visit is deficient, several parts of the castle are not accessible. The audio guide is not in sync with the visit so difficult to navigate. The audio guide brings nothing. If you are short of time, take this tour.
Cher client, Merci pour votre retour. Cependant, nous ne comprenons pas bien le sens de votre avis. Que voulez-vous dire lorsque vous indiquez que la visite n’est pas claire ? Il s’agit d’une visite d’un château, et l’audioguide est clair et comprend également une carte 3D pour vous guider tout au long de l’expérience. Cordialement.
The audio system is very good but you have to download an app and use your phone as the audio guide which I didn’t realise so had to pay extra for 2 handsets. The tour was very interesting and enjoyable there is a nice bar with lovely views and it’s not over priced compared to other places.
