Extremely nice
marialexfeoli, Dec 2021
The tour guide/companion were wonderful and kind. This happen in the middle of the pandemic and I had to take a PCR test in preparation for another trip and they were super kind to take me to the lab and wait for me (I happened to be the only person in the tour, otherwise would have been impossible). They were flexible, kind and knowledgeable. The car was in the great conditions as well. Once we arrive to the palace, I was on my own, they don't go in with you. Le Barbizon was a cute chic town but everything was closed and there was little or nothing to do there.
