The whole trip was thoroughly enjoyed by all our 18 passengers, from booking to go on the trip, it was all a very easy transaction.  Micheal was an excellent guide and looked after us so well.  Thank you so much for making it a very enjoyable and memorable trip for us all. -- Karen Blackwood, Director, S & B Utilities Limited, Knaresborough, UK, Full Day Paris Tour, lunch at Eiffel Tower, return to CDG Airport.

Dear Claire - I am just writing a quick note to thank you very much for the arrangements you made on our behalf, and also to tell you that we were absolutely WOWED by Rozenn! She was an absolutely incredible guide and she helped us have the perfect tour of Paris! She has such great knowledge of the city and she is delightful to be around -- we have said again and again that she made our trip more amazing than we could have imagined! We will recommend your company and Rozenn every time we have the opportunity to do so!  With many thanks, Hilary Claypool, Connecticut.

Our tour guide was very prompt. The ride from Paris to Normandy Beaches went very quickly due to the information he provided on the way. I would definitely recommend you to my friends who are interested in a similar tour. When in Paris again, we will defiintely use your services. -- D.Phillips, Texas

 Your tour was much more in depth and complete than the ship tours. I thought our guide was very knowledgeable and let us see all we wanted and knew routes and secrets to allow us more time at our stops. All of my friends and my wife thought that our visit to Paris was a highlight of our trip. Again thank you very much for all you did.  -- Phil Braden, CA (from Le Havre cruise ship)

Dear Claire.....Please forgive me for being so tardy in saying thank you for the most lovely tour that anyone could possibly have.....It was just perfect. Sherry and I felt completely at home...Could you please express our heart-felt thank you to Norma and Lionel...for they were the very best....knowledgeable and both so charming....if possible we shall return....Thank You for a dream come true.....Best Wishes....Karin Lynn Jeffreys and Sherry Mizumoto, USA 

Overall our 3 day tour was very enjoyable.  Albrecht was helpful, and was sensitive to our requirements.  I enjoyed our 3 days  very much.  To Claire, especially, thank you for your help. -- Lesley Hunter, Australia, Melbourne

Pascal was great, got us all together even though we came in at various times & places in that big airport, treated us well and showed us around well in the short time we had.  I would definitely recommend this to others. -- Gary Anderson, Canada

The tour was better than expected and our tour guide was probably the best guide we have ever had. He was personable, knowledgeable and kept us entertained the entire day. Highly recommend, thank you. -- S. Kantor, New York  

Our guide, Michael, for the Jewish History walking tour was exceptional.  He was so informed and easy to talk to and we liked him so much on a personal level.  (He can come stay at our house in Miami anytime.)  And Claire was great also.  We felt very taken care of when she called us in London to make sure everything was confirmed to our satisfaction.  We will definitely use your tour services in the future and will recommend you to all of our friends.  -- Carol Berk, Florida   

The planning was quite interactive and I thoroughly enjoyed the email discussion to come up with a tour that exactly fit our schedule. The van was, just as advertised, roomy and comfortable for all 7 of his new charges (and 4 of us were 6' or taller). (The guide) added a great deal of historical perspective to the sites we visited and greatly increased our enjoyment of the trip. We look forward to our next trip with Panache and recommend the experience highly. -- Marc Leslie, London, England 

I just wanted to say thank you for all of your assistance with our trip to Paris. Everything was perfect and went off without a hitch. The tour bus was really nice, and the driver was on time and extremely pleasant. Many people said they learned a tremendous amount and wished (the guide) were with them the next day when they were touring on their own. The trip was a success because of your help and wonderful recommendations.  -- Shannon Heaton, Tustin, CA

The tour was great, and the guide was excellent, tailoring the tour just perfectly to suit our needs.  Even went out of his way to show where my father landed in the war.  -- Robert Prosser, Shawnee, KS (Normandy D-Day Beaches Tour )

I wanted to say thank you for taking such good care of my wife and daughter.  Everything went smoothly and according to plan, and although I had no recommendation (I found you off of the Internet), you may always use us as a reference should anyone ever question your abilities.  Once again, thank you for doing such a great job. -- Steve Master

Just wanted to let you know we had a great trip.  Your company was excellent!  No problems, everything on time as planned.  Will recommend to everyone - thanks again! -- Darlene Sheldon

Thank you so much for the wonderful experience in Paris! You made our experience more enjoyable and we could not have experienced so much in such a short amount of time without your help. I think the variety of our tour gave each one of us something special to cherish and remember.  On behalf of the entire Cole family, we are immensely appreciative of the time you spent with us.  -- Pebble Cole, Atlanta, Georgia

Thanks for the great few days in Paris and its environs. Your guidance made our brief stay very unique and well worthwhile. We thoroughly enjoyed seeing the sights from a non-tourist perspective, and that was especially attractive for me since I've been to Paris quite a few times. We would definitely seek your guidance again on our next trip to France. -- Mark Meader, Sydney, Australia

Just a note to tell you how much we enjoyed our tour yesterday.  I want to compliment Honoré (our guide) for a wonderful day.  He was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to be with.  -- Diane Blank

I was writing to let you know how much we all enjoyed the tour on Saturday. Jean-Claude (our driver) and Didier (our tour guide) were very nice and the tour was interesting and informal.  -- Danielle Kidney, London, England

You really delivered on everything that was promised. The meals were all fabulous . . . The tour guides were wonderful. It really was the trip of a lifetime. I will definitely be recommending you to anyone who wants to travel to Paris, and I'd love to take another of your tours in the future. -- Andrea Gibson, Seattle, WA
