I booked this tour for my first morning in La Rochelle. I didn’t know much about the city, so my goal was to learn more about it and find out things to see and do. John was a fantastic guide and for 2 hours he brought me up to speed on the history of La Rochelle and the places of interest to visit and restaurants to try over my stay. I enjoyed this tour so much I booked a different tour with John for the following day.

John knows so much history of La Rochelle and packed a great deal of information in the time we were with him. So many points of interest, delivered with enthusiasm and humor. He asked us questions about our interests and was genuinely interested, We have been on many tours through our time in France and he was the best. If you want to know about La Rochelle delivered in a passionate way, this is your guide.

You will not be disappointed, our guide was very knowledgeable about the history for La Rochelle, engaged the whole group. Love the idea of finding the hidden cat and the carmel treat. He made great recommendations for dining. We were traveling on a cruise ship, had less than 8 hours to spend in La Rochelle. Glad we did this tour to remember La Rochelle
