I booked a full day tour of Versailles with my daughter and it was just perfect. I had many questions through email prior to our outing and they were always answered in a timely manner. They were always there to help. Our morning started out with a very nice Mercedes van picking us up and taking us to Versailles to meet our wonderful guide, Anna. Anna was very knowledgeable on every aspect of Versailles. My daughter and I learned so much and had the most magnificent time with Anna. If we had done this tour alone we would have been amazed still, but doing it with a guide makes a world of difference. There were so many details and things we would have never known if we didn’t have Anna. When the day was over our driver was right there ready to take us back to our hotel. It was a wonderful experience. I highly recommend this company, they were top notch and did everything with ease and class. What an incredible experience!!!

My husband and I were on a short trip to Paris for his work. On the day he had mostly off, we had Frederic drive us to Bruges since we had never been to Belgium and the pictures looked amazing. After a very comfortable ride there, Frederic started a walking tour with us in the morning and we quickly realized the pictures did not do this quaint city justice! We felt like Disney had created this perfect little town for people to see. Frederic walked us around before we stopped for lunch together. He was going to leave us to dine alone but we asked him to join us because we enjoyed his company so much and we wanted to hear more about the city. After lunch, he gave us the option of having him continue to walk us around or we could explore on our own. We chose to explore on our own since we felt he had given us such a good overview that morning. We had plans to tour the Chocolate Museum but when we arrived, it was closed due to the time of year. We actually didn't mind much and we just spent the day wandering the beautiful streets around the canals and stopping for hot chocolate and waffles. I would highly suggest a visit to Bruges to feel like you have stepped back in time. Speaking of time, we toured in January and lucked out that it wasn't extremely cold. The crowds were very low so it was easy to wander the streets and sometimes we found ourselves the only ones exploring the small alleyways. I would definitely return to Bruges one day and would highly suggest taking this tour especially if it is your first visit or if you have very limited time in the city.

This hassle-free tour with private transportation ended up being a Godsend with the transportation strike and train schedules to Versailles being seriously "iffy." Who knows if we'd even made it there without Gustavo picking us up in his comfortable van? Once there, skipping the enormous line also proved worth the extra penny as Paris and sites like Versailles are growing in tourist numbers. Gustavo was interesting, polite and willing to answer all questions related to history, French culture and attitudes. He even set up a private tour of the apartments per our request. It's a long day, but Gustavo didn't overwhelm us with information overload and by the end of the tour, we felt we had made a new friend.

Our Photography tour group ( David Wong: California USA) went with Magali Desquesne on her DDay4you tour. I found Magali to be very knowledge and engaging. She was very organized and saw to it that the group was able to maximize the time we had at the sites. She displayed her own interest and regard for the events of history. This for me was helpful in personalizing my own experience. I am grateful for her dedication to teaching, and furthering our experience of the pivotal events that took place at Normandy. My many thanks Mag, respectfully, Barbara Summers

I’m ashamed to say this review is long overdue. We had the pleasure of experiencing Milan as our private guide over the 2019 Thanksgiving holiday. Well prior to arrival, Milan asked thoughtful and insightful questions to ensure he tailored our experience to our liking. Our family prefers to experience history off beaten path and Milan more than delivered. Our young daughter learned of Marie Antoinette and the revolution in school and is captivated by their long reaching historical significance. Milan’s planning made history come alive. He tied so many wonderful historical pieces together and helped her to recreate one of the photos from a textbook that he brought. That single photo has found its way into her current studies and we have no doubt that the experience Milan created could likely be the catalyst to a future career in humanities. He was also able to obtain tickets to a special showing of Marie Antoinette’s gowns. We were pleasantly provided with background and insight that simply doesn’t exist in typical travel guides. Our son was learning French at the time, and Milan helped him with his phonetics while we were in between destinations. Our friends and family still ask us to tell and re-tell the stories behind our photos. We have been longing to go back to Paris; to pick up right where we left off with Milan. Without a doubt, our experience would not have been as fantastic as it was without him. Ultimately, time will tell how much of a long term impact our experience with Milan has had on our kids, but make no mistake in that we considered it to be a little bit magical.
