What people are saying about Hauts-de-France

Stephanie was a very good and funny guide of the tour. It was very informative and more exciting than walking through the castle on your own. The garden is very large, since it was quite cold and we had to walk a lot, we soon lost interest (the garden part was not guided).

Our guide was amazing and really brought the history to life. Even our 9 and 10 year olds were fascinated.

This castle is exceptional. The general site could still be more attractive but I really appreciated

Great tour! More than enough time to see the important stuff in there. Marta did really well!

Julie was amazing! Very informative and loved her personality!
