The experience with Milan...

Published on Dec, 2024

The experience with Milan was amazing , we had a glitchy start but that was an error on my part, but he was still accomodating and despite our late arrival, once onboard the train to Rouen. The scenery was changing and beautiful, once at Rouen, walking the through the streets and having Milan tell us about the history and show us the steps towards Joan of Arcs life and end of life, was an experience . Our 13 year old loved the day and was made special with Milan’s knowledge and passion . Thank you for a wonderful day and hope to see you again on one of your other tours .. highly recommend this tour
