“The castle is beautiful, the history very interesting. Agnes has been a guide for 30 years and is extremely knowledgeable so made the tour very special. We also learned so much about Sweden and how the society/government functions. Also fascinating. Our driver was excellent and the entire experience will be one we remember forever. So fortunate we were able to do this tour. We wanted to tour in the morning but the afternoon worked for the company and it turned out to be great as there were very few people there. I was surprised, it felt like we had the whole castle to ourselves. Thank you so much!”
