Rouen Tour in English
Maria_R, Dec 2024
Very informative tour. A nice small group. Our guide’s English was excellent and she was willing to answer all questions asked.
Entertaining and Well Informed
Brian K, Dec 2024
A lovely 2 hours, entertaining and well informed. Took the group around the old town with a relaxed walk, was helpful, and didn't push the group. The size of the group was just right, and she waited for photos to be taken. Well worth money.

This tour is good value.

Elodie was full of historical facts and anecdotes. She answered well any questions we had. The only thing we’d have liked was some idea of a map as to our route round. Perhaps she could bring a small copy for each of us? Or suggest we bring one to mark out landmarks to keep.
We enjoyed her talk and didn’t feel hurried around.
Thank you, Elodie!

Elodie, a Local Guide with many Interesting Stories' & Anecdotes of Rouen
Santosh_J, Dec 2024
Elodie is born in Giverny, where Monet lived and now she lives in Rouen. She took us to few unique historical places and educated us using history from100 AD to modern age.
She narrated many anecdotes, historical facts that you wouldn't know, unless you have a local guide like Elodie.
We enjoyed our time with her and highly recommend her.
