    • There will be some older gentlemen there wanting you to ride in their horse drawn carriage to the castle. DON'T DO IT. It is overpriced and we almost missed our tour of the castles because he wanted to fill the whole carriage first, then leave. I showed him what time our tour started, and he still waited. It was not worth it!!

    Alternative: The suggested alternative is to walk to the castles. It doesn't take that much longer, you may get a little winded, but it's worth the trip!
