Charline was an excellent guide! We ended up by ourselves on this tour, so it became a private tour! Charline was very knowledgeable and not very overwhelming! We would highly recommend this trip and Charline!

This tour was great and Marion is one of the best tour guides I’ve ever had! While the locations on the tour are beautiful and very interesting, Marion’s knowledge was what made the day perfect for me. She is truly an expert in the region, the sites, and all the French history that goes with it. I loved how she told the stories of the sites and I felt much more informed than the other tour groups and the audio tour individuals we passed. It was a truly wonderful tour and Marion is a rockstar!
