Cecil was a wonderful, intelligent, informative, & patient tour guide who made the sad realities of Verdun come to life for 3 different generations of amateur historians, my 12yo son, myself (40s) & my 77 year old father. His knowledge of facts & stats coupled with his story-like way of delivering this information made the tour facts easy to digest fascinating to listen to and learn. We all learned SO MUCH. My dad, son & I enjoyed our tour immensely self & would recommend Cecil to anyone. He was particularly patient with my 12 year old son who was on his first day of jet lag. He made sure to include my son in ways that my son could relate to. I was impressed! Cecil also went out of his way to create a tour itinerary that fit our desires and timeframe.

What an illuminating day - Cecil proved to be an exceptional host - dealing knowledgeably and sensitively with some harrowing subject matter - he knows his stuff and guides very well!

Cecil was an absolutely fantastic guide. We learned so much about Verdun, and the surrounding area. He was extremely knowledgeable and an absolutely delight to spend time with. Would highly recommend.
