We had an absolutely lovely morning with Eric - he was friendly and polite and really went out of his way to make sure we were having a great time and seeing all that we wanted to see. Hearing the stories and seeing all of the locations where the movie was filmed was wonderful - even though it did rain on us, that didn’t dampen our mood or the experience.
Go with Leo!

If at all possible, book a private tour with Leopold! He is friendly, accommodating and professional. It’s like we became “ family” by the end. Our granddaughter Lucy loved him!
Great experience

Fun, engaging experience. Loved the private tour so we didn’t have to deal with big groups. Great tour guide. We added the apple strudel making part last minute and it was fantastic. Highly recommend both parts.
