Castel Gandolfo was a wonderful tour! However, Headout did not give clear directions for the Garden tour. We asked all over the Plaza and no one knew anything about our trip. Finally the ticket office found a driver to take us for only 1/2 hour instead of an hour! Good for them. Not for Headout tho

Ein rundum beeindruckendes Erlebnis! Die Führung durch Castel Gandolfo war abwechslungsreich und informativ; Geschichte, Päpste und Anlage wurden spannend vermittelt. Besonders beeindruckten die wunderschönen Gärten, die prachtvollen Räume und die einzigartige Atmosphäre. Zum Abschluss kehrten wir in die Cafeteria ein; das Personal war sehr freundlich und aufmerksam, sodass wir uns rundum willkommen fühlten. Ein Besuch, den wir uneingeschränkt empfehlen können – vielen Dank für dieses unvergessliche Erlebnis!
