5.00A day on the road with Kylie. His charismatic humor and historical facts made the day delightful and memorable. His wealth of knowledge, trivia, and recommendations were all on point. The vehicle was comfortable, and he was a great driver. We lastly enjoyed his folk playlist that introduced us to new artist and reacquainted us with a couple we knew. The castles were incredible to check out, and we went earlier enough to some that it wasn’t crowded.
Not a good experience.
