Cecil took us to places we would have never found and had actually never heard the history about. Vauquois was amazing!

Cecil was a great guide and driver. Polite, prompt and informative. He was able to suggest a very interesting alternative when our plans changed at the last minute. He was also very knowledgeable about French culture and politics. Highly recommended.
Cecil was excellent and very accomodating. He took us out for the whole day.
He was personable and knowledgable.
I would recommned him to anyone!
Two of us spent a day with Cecil touring the WWI sites around Verdun.
Cecil was easy to work with in coordinating the day and very flexible in scheduling. Communication was excellent throughout the process. Excellent English skills!
Cecil quickly got a sense of our level of familiarity with the history of the battles in the area and adapted his information appropriately. It was truly an informative and rewarding day. Cecil is personable, highly knowledgeable & we enjoyed the time spent in his company.
I would use his services again & highly recommend him to anyone looking for a guide in the Verdun area
Cecil picked up our family of four adults at the TGV Meuse train station 9:00 a.m. on 3 September 2019. His vehicle is comfortable for four adults and provides good views while driving. He had us back in time for our 6:54 p.m. return train to Paris. In between we had a fantastic day touring first Verdun and then the Argonne battlefields. Cecil will customize your visit, but we did his standard tour which hit all the key spots we were hoping to see. Cecil is quite knowledgeable about the battles (I had read Alistair Horne's: The Price of Glory, Verdun 1916 a few months before), tells the basic story well, and illustrates many key visual elements along the way, all while professionally guiding the sites. The last stop of the day was Vauquois which was a fascinating unexpected gem! We highly recommend Cecil!
