The ride to and from the castle was average at best. The tour guide was self absorbed and borderline rude. The castle itself was beautiful and well worth exploring but we only stayed there for just over an hour. I would suggest a different tour company as there are others in the area or drive to the castle boathouse and take their shuttle boat to the island so you can take your time to explore.
Enchanting Experience!

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the surrounding islands and had the best sense of humor. Our captain slowed down to show us awesome structures. The castle was a very unforgettably beautiful structure. This entire trip was amazing.
