Great visit with Elodie! You will learn many anecdotes about Rouen and Elodie knows her subject and her city perfectly. She takes the time to answer any questions you might have in a simple and humorous way:)
The visit is also ideal for taking children, my 8 year old nephew was delighted!
So if you want to discover Rouen from a fun and new angle, GO FOR IT;)

Being from Rouen, I wanted to make this visit to really get to know my city. I was surprised by the quality of the visit! Plus the weather was very nice, it was morning and there weren't too many people in the streets. The visit was great! Historically and culturally Elodie is very knowledgeable and super funny!! The visit was rich in anecdotes and I was amazed!! I really fell in love with the Rue Massacre which I love and I finally know why it is called that 😄 I can only recommend it, the visit was fascinating!!

Great visit with Elodie, dynamic and smiling, we learn a lot about the wonderful city of Rouen. The anecdotes, all very interesting, allow you to better retain information on the different monuments of Rouen. I am from Rouen and yet I have learned a lot of things.
I recommend 100%.

À great walking tour around old Rouen, Élodie told us lots of stories and had great historical knowledge. Good to do the tour at the start of your stay so you can go back and look around all the sites in more detail. We learnt a lot including where to find some good restaurants

To enjoy in small group the quality of a particular visit. Elodie told us about her city with its history and anecdotes. The super compromise between culture and pleasure. We had a great time and had the opportunity to take some pictures 😉. Thank you.

Elodie was full of historical facts and anecdotes. She answered well any questions we had. The only thing we’d have liked was some idea of a map as to our route round. Perhaps she could bring a small copy for each of us? Or suggest we bring one to mark out landmarks to keep.
We enjoyed her talk and didn’t feel hurried around.
Thank you, Elodie!

Very interesting comments with lots of anecdotes and historical details. The choice of places visited in 1h30 to 2h00 were wise. Elodie was captivating and unfortunately the visit was much too short!!!

A lovely 2 hours, entertaining and well informed. Took the group around the old town with a relaxed walk, was helpful, and didn't push the group. The size of the group was just right, and she waited for photos to be taken. Well worth money.

We will be traveling by train from LeHavre to Rouen after disembarking. Not sure if we will arrive on time. Is it possible to book the tour tomorrow if we arrive by 10:30? Thank you, David Maggi
