The guide was knowledgeable and interesting. Although we were the only 2 English speakers she made time to help us understand some of the main information. The Abbey is spectacular and getting to see some of the areas that wouldn't be available without the tour was really special. I'd recommend the tour to anyone visiting the area.

Unser Guide war – mit einem Wort … Phänomenal. Ich empfehle eine Führung, nicht nur wegen der Möglichkeit, die Bibliothek und andere Räume zu besichtigen, sondern auch wegen der Informationen, die man ohne diese Führung nicht gesehen oder gehört hätte. Ein wirklich wundervolles Erlebnis!
