Sirus was a great driver and guide. He worked well with our group. He was informative on each stop and made sure we focused on the best of eah castle. And the real winner was the winery. Our group loves wine and he took us to a small family owned vineyard with great wine and incredible prices. We highly recommend but I would avoid doing this on a Friday since traffic was heavy when we hit Paris on our return. This is a 13 hour experience but with several stops.
