5.00It was a beautiful experience; The day - although hot - was impeccable. Both our guide and the driver supported us to the best of their ability, offering us cold water whenever possible; The visit is truly worthwhile; the driver dropped us off in front of the castle entrance and coordinated impeccably with the guide, who we found waiting for us at the exit. The visit to Barbizon was very nice and characteristic… relaxing after much Parisian frenzy! Kudos to customer service as well; Vanisha coordinated everything perfectly! Greetings from Italy, Alessia
