Had a great tour. We were in tne area for two days and Cecil was very helpful in tailoring our visit for a day on our own and and a full day with him. He gave great advice on hear we could see on our own. In our time with him, he did a great job balancing the big picture perspective to help us understand what we were seeing along with phenomenal, colorful detail on particulars. He did a great job. He really helped us understand the geography of what we were seeing. There are so many sites around Verdun and the battle was so long that I was lost before we went. Cecil really helped us out it all together and understand how all the sites related to each other. Truly a great guide to history .

We had a fantastic day with Cecil. He spent extra time with us to ensure we saw all important Verdun and Meuse sites. He was incredibly knowledgable. We learned a lot and enjoyed spending the day with him. I highly recommend Cecil!!!

We enjoyed our time with Cecil. He was very good at explaining the large picture of the fortification facing Germany, how the battles of Verdun played out, and he did it with a bit of humor when discussing some topics. Very nice day

Wonderful day with Cecil touring and learning about the battles of Verdun and the Meuse Argonne. He is very knowledgeable and has a warm and engaging personality. I have done at least a dozen private tours with various guides. I think this on was the most value for the price of all of them. If you’re going to Verdun, make sure you hire Cecil.

If you are planning a visit to Verdun, please, please, please hire Cecil to be your guide. I'll be honest, I was going to Verdun because my son wanted to go there. It was probably one of the least things I was interested in. It ended up one of my favorite days on our entire trip. My husband and son felt the same way. Cecil was incredibly patient and went above and beyond to show us the important sites in this heartbreaking battle. His stories and information made it come alive. I walked away with a much deeper understanding of how this battle affected the French people and what it meant in the country's history. It would not have been possible to reach this level of appreciation without Cecil.
