Dr Michaelis is so knowledgable and passionate about his subject and his beautiful place and the €10 fee for the tour and tasting was amazing value. We somehow managed to lose four entire hours there and we didn't even stay for a meal or swim in the pool!

“Very interesting and fun tour with my guide Seana. Plenty of time to focus more in detail to some of the spots within the castle or Ninomaru palace. It was fun to find together with Seana the "floating peacock" panel in Ohiroma Ni-no-ma (second room) within Ninomaru palace that is not visible from the beaten track.
