Noyre guide Julie était merveilleuse. C’est le jardin qui a déçu, aucune fleur, juste du vert et des fontaines qui ne fonctionnaient pas.

Notre guide Lucie était excellente, elle maîtrise bien son sujet, avait plein d’anecdotes à nous raconter, volubile et à l’écoute des gens.

Die Tour war super spannend. Ich habe sie 2023 schon einmal gemacht, aber mit Tour Guide Francesco war es dieses Mal wieder ganz anders. Er hat die Tour wirklich spannend und interessant geführt. Sehr empfehlenswert!

Julie est une guide qui nous a réconciliés avec l’histoire de France. Très pédagogue avec des explications simples, détaillées, avec une pointe d’humour. Je la recommande vivement.
