Edgar was a great tour guide, very knowledgeable and excited to share information about the history and contents of the castles and Eva did a great job driving us safely through the city directly from our apartment and dropping us off at our next destination after the tour. I didn’t notice that the tickets to the castles are not included in the price of the tour though get my guide.
