This tour is a must. Spent the day with Catarina who lend us on a spectacular tour of the countryside. Our first stop was so special as we were the only tourist visiting the site after taking a lovely boat ride to get to the castle. Most enjoyable day. Catarina picked us up in the AM and took us home that evening. It doesn't get any better than that!
