Would have enjoyed more commentary from guide. He just drove and only talked if we asked a question.

Actually I did not go on the trip. I booked it, my card was charged and I received an email confirming the trip. Then about 12 hours before I was to go, I got an email saying my booking was canceled. Apparently they are still in the early 20th century when it come to having computers keep track of bookings. Thus, I was not able to do a tour—it was too late to get another trip booked. They seem to think telling me they weren’t going to refund the cost my credit card was a big deal on their part and that made everything OK.

1) great guide "Audrey" was fantastic, full of knowledge and eager to share it. Totally enthusiastic about her work
2) great support. "Laura" stayed on top of everything.
3) the chateaux are fantastic. A beautiful piece of history not to be missed.
4) if you take the Plou y Fils wine tour and tasting - interesting and fun. (We bought a few bottles)
