Nous avons passé un très bon moment, visite intétessante avec une guide compétente et sympathique Dommage que nous n'ayons pas pu visiter les jardins qui étaient fermés à cause de la pluie, et n'avons reçu aucune compensation financière ni la possibilité de revenir aux jardins un autre jour

Everything went smoothly. Well organized. It's a pity I didn't get the audio in Spanish, because that option didn't appear when I bought it. But the experience was incredible. My husband and I really enjoyed it.
