5.00All I can say is WOW! Our expert guide Philippe was amazing! He shared so much history with us that we had never heard before and we are so grateful for this profound experience. Thank you to our driver Mohammad for a smooth ride and allowing us to add a quick stop to Ste Marie Eglise on the way back to the ship. My husband and I cannot thank you enough for walking us through this important part of history!
