Our travellers' reviews

Elodie was a fantastic guide, very knowledgeable, and made every stop truly interesting, even for our twelve-year-old who usually gets bored very easily with anything historical. She made our day in Rouen one of the highlights of our vacation, thank you Elodie!

Russell – United Kingdom

Delighted with our tour of Rouen's old town on 03/16/25 with Elodie, a very friendly guide. Interesting and clear information about Rouen's history and its iconic monuments and figures (the market and its church, the Palace of Justice, the Gros Horloge, the old cemetery, the cathedral), as well as anecdotes. Given the density of ancient monuments in old Rouen, not all could be seen and discussed.

Laure – France

Highly recommend!! Superb tour! Elodie was very professional and kind; she told us so many little things about the center of Rouen that it would have been impossible to discover and learn on our own. Highly recommended!

Elisa – Italy

Perfect for discovering Rouen! Great tour with Elodie, who is dynamic and cheerful; we learned a lot about the wonderful city of Rouen. The anecdotes, all very interesting, help to better retain information about Rouen's various monuments. I'm from Rouen, and yet I learned so much. I recommend it 100%.

An excellent tour experience! It was a fantastic and very personal tour, full of information and many extra insights. A lovely walk through the city too. Elodie is friendly, welcoming, and open to questions. An excellent tour guide.

Emily – United Kingdom

We had an excellent tour with Elodie. Her English is excellent, and she knows exactly how much information to give without being boring. The tour gave us a great orientation to Rouen, and we were then able to explore on our own and follow some of her recommendations.

Don't visit Rouen without a tour with Elodie! Enjoy a high-quality, personalized experience in a small group. Elodie shared her city's history and anecdotes with us. It was the perfect blend of culture and enjoyment. We had a wonderful time and even had time for some photos. Thank you!

Sandrine – France

Family guided tour of Rouen. Elodie was a wonderful guide for discovering Rouen, with the ability to entertain even the younger ones. Not overly detailed, but also able to delve deeper into questions if asked. Well done!

Simone – United Kingdom

Relaxed and informative walking tour in Old Rouen. Walking through Old Rouen, Elodie told us many stories and had extensive historical knowledge. It's good to do the tour at the beginning of your stay so you can go back and explore all the sites in more detail. We learned a lot, including where to find good restaurants.

Sarah – United Kingdom

Great! The description before booking allows you to see the tour's structure and progression. Elodie is excellent: she's engaging and tells amusing and interesting anecdotes. She provides chronological context, which is great for those less familiar with history. This experience has reconciled me with guided tours because it's lively and not just descriptive.
