We loved our trip with Leona as our guide and Brahmin (sp?) for our driver. While the days were busy due to many stops, we enjoyed not having to worry about driving and directions. The two hotels were good and the meals (dinner first night and two breakfasts) were good enough for us. This tour was the highlight of our trip to France.

We were on the trip with guide Leila and driver Bryan. They were a great duo, very entertaining, and made everything as easy as possible. It covers a lot of territory and history in a short amount of time. Perfect when you want to see as much as possible. Leila was extremely knowledgeable.

We booked this trip several months in advance as it hit many of the items we wanted to see during the month of July. Both our guide and driver were excellent.the The highlight was by far Mont Saint Michel however the drive to Angers afterwards was a bit long and a stop along the way would have helped( water, facilities break). The Loire Valley was also nice yet we would have preferred to skip Langeais (nothing wrong with the castle or the village) to spend more time at Chenonceau and Chambord..

Our guide and driver were great. Professional while still sensitive to the group. We were on a packed scheduled but it seldom seemed rushed and we left each site feeling like much, if not all of the important things were covered.
