Excelente la guía Alessandra, el transportista no estuvo a la altura de Viator, desconoce su función y nos hizo llegar tarde al castello. Gracias a la amabilidad de Alessandra pudimos recorrer igual el lugar.

Una bravissima Alessandra ci ha guidato nella scoperta di questo meraviglioso monumento che ci ha lasciato un grande illuminato RE. L’organizzazione della visita alla fine ha completato la magnifica esperienza con una super degustazione di prodotti locali in una splendida masseria.
