Absolutely cherished this experience. It was so nice having a guide all to ourselves!! Andrew was super knowledgeable about not just Downtown Abbey, but almost any question we threw at him 😂 Highclere castle is more amazing in person, the grounds were shockingly beautiful. Definitely recommend this experience!!
