“The tour was great and full of lots of history. Mark, our tour guide, was awesome and super knowledgeable. He did a great job at getting the group engaged in his stories. The boat tour was beautiful, so I would recommend taking that instead of walking around town. The castle was also beautiful and I would recommend doing the guided tour which comes with your ticket. The drive alone was also a beautiful journey and it was nice to see the view from the car. We even got to see the Hairy Coos which was a nice little surprise! It was a great time all around.”
