    We had "Lafayette" as our guide and he was so funny and quick with his improvisation. He made the experience very immersive as he remembered people's names and places they were from. He kept the whole group intrigued from start to finish. The reason I'm giving 4 stars is because the tour is posted as being an underground tour when most of it takes place above ground through the city. Lafayette is amazing though ,still a very fun and memorable experience!

    Sonia was the perfect guide. Incredibly knowledgeable about the history of the castle. Also the right mix of macabre when talking about the history. Was an absolute pleasure to be part of her tour
