An excellent French Guide :

I participated at the beginning of April, in Normandy tour. Normandy is interesting by the history of the area, not to mention its gastronomy as well. There’s so much to see .

A special thanks deserves our excellent guide, Helena Koskenranta-Boncoeur, as well by her experience level as her attitude. This type of knowledgeable and qualified guides I have hardly met during the ten years I’ve been travelling on sightseeing trips about 2-4 times a year. She did not leave anything to be desired.

I will never forget this trip, my heart stayed in Paris, its history and all the things I got to know let me feel a deep love to Paris.

ORAVAINEN FAMILY

A big thank to you from our entire family’ of the very pleasant and
and expert guidance. We would have liked to continue
even longer, but as you travel with small children it is with the child’s conditions and priorities
are different than at any other time.

During our sightseeing tour a rehearsed lot of details, that I have heard of
in the past, but they had left my mind . “Repetition is the mother of studies”’
– as the saying goes, and it was witnessed once again.
Thank you Helena once again.

2016

Two years ago, I was travelling in Normandy.
Helena Boncoeur, our guide had lived in Paris for at least 20 years.
She was formed in Paris and was accredited. She was excellent, I could not have hoped for a better guide! I’ve made several tours in ten years and I have seen all types of guides. Helena was very well prepared. She was asked a variety of things and if she did not know the answer, she noted the question, made inquiries and gave the answer later. The fact that she is married to a French man, gives her an extensive knowledge of France, culture and French society. In addition, she’s a very nice person. This trip was very rewarding in every way. I still think of it with great pleasure!

This feedback arrived by surprise to my mailbox in the beginning of the year.
