Bonjour, oui c’était super, le guide est très sympa et intéressant! La journée était très agréable! Il est dommage que par manque de temps nous ne puissions pas visiter le Louvre ce qui est normal mais je pense qu’un arrêt à la maison d’Abraham aurait été possible 😊

We’ve had a great day. Ahmed was very professional, and informative, communications were excellent, the day went as expected. We would have preferred more choice at lunchtime but what we had was ok, no complaints. Regards
