Cecil Graf

We found Cecil thru our hotel and booked him far in advance and were delighted we did so.  He picked us up in car at the hotel and the adventure began.  His English is excellent and his knowledge of the battles of Verdun is unsurpassed.  He recalled that on the first Sunday of each month, we could tour the Butte de Vacquois.   We had not heard of this site and it was absolutely fascinating.  The volunteer guides were also very professional and Cecil was an excellent translator.   From there, we saw as much as we could cram into the space of one day, stopping for lunch in a private museum to WWI that also served wonderful sandwiches.  At the end of the day, we shared a drink with Cecil to review our day.  If you plan on touring the battlefields of Verdun, be sure to get Cecil!
