    Philipe was our guide for this tour and did a wonderful job. He was able to get us to all three castles after an unfortunate mechanical issue that occurred early in our trip. He’s very knowledgeable of the area and very informative. He also is very open to questions And generally just a great guy. Thanks Philippe for all you did for us.
