(English Bellow) We were lucky enough to book four tours with Thunderdices in the last 3 years, again in French: a Sherlock Holmes tour and a tour of Edinburgh Old Town with Marie, a tour of Leith and Edinburgh New Town with Althea. Althea and Marie are extremely kind and impeccable in their skill, with great counters. We learned a lot and had a lot of fun. We look forward to returning to Scotland, and of course, booking one of their many visits. Thank you again, Althea and Marie! We've been fortunate enough to book four tours with Thunderdices over the past three years, all in French: a Sherlock Holmes tour, then an Edinburgh Old Town tour with Marie, and a tour of Leith and Edinburgh New Town with Althea. Althea and Marie are extraordinarily kind and knowledgeable and are also great storytellers. We learned a tremendous amount of things and had a great time. We can't wait to return to Scotland and, of course, book one of their many tours. Thanks again, Althea and Marie!

Amazing history lesson as well as getting to see some beautiful historic sights. She also gave me a lot of information about Harry Potter as well.
