Reviews for Ophorus

Wonderful tour exceptional guide

Pauline took myself and 5 Others from Strasbourg to several villages on the Alsacian wine route. She gave so much interesting information from agriculture to architecture, geography and history. She not only knows her stuff she made it interesting. The villages themselves were so quaint and colorful if not a bit crowded due to the tour groups. Some of the time Pauline led us around but we also had some free time which was timed perfectly. If you find yourself in the Alsace region I would highly recommend it. So very worth the money.

Lovely day with Lea, our lovely tour guide. First 2 chateau’s were wonderful. Last one was too modern for our taste. The visit to St. Emilion was charming.

We had an all day tour with Helen. She was a wonderful guide, clearly loved what she does, and had great energy. She kept us on schedule and the tour was more fun than we thought it might be. We also learned a lot about the area and about all the different wines From Bordeaux Highly recommend this tour

We booked the half day D-Day tour and our guide was Pascal, who told us the history of the D-Day brilliantly, he included many details as well as lesser known stories of people involved in this historic event. It was a great tour, for which I am glad to have this excellent tour guide. Would absolutely recommend taking this tour with Pascal!

Spędziliśmy świetny dzień z Thierry. Opowiedział nam bardzo ciekawe historie związane z Alzacją oraz odwiedzonymi miejscami. Przemiły, punktualny przewodnik mówiący perfekcyjnie po angielsku. Wszystkie odwiedzone miejsca przepiękne. Polecam!

Perfekt tur. En ung pige som guide (kan desværre ikke huske hendes navn), som talte perfekt engelsk, kørte godt og var god til at formidle.

Pascal was a terrific guide, knew his history extremely well, great driver as well. He made the trip very enjoyable. He was able to give a lot more details and stories than just the basic information. I would rate him a 10. His English was excellent

Father was 83rd Infantry; needed to see Normandy American Sector!

Wonderful experience! We had the privilege of touring the Normandy American Sector with Valentin, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From start to finish, he demonstrated incredible knowledge, passion, and respect for the history of this sacred place. What stood out most was the way Valentin brought the stories to life—connecting the strategy, the personal sacrifices, and the lasting significance of D-Day in a way that was both deeply informative and profoundly moving. Every stop was thoughtfully planned, and we never felt rushed. He struck the perfect balance between historical detail and personal reflection, allowing us to truly appreciate the magnitude of what happened here. We left the tour with not only a greater understanding of the events of June 6, 1944, but also with immense gratitude for the men and women who served. This experience was the highlight of our trip, and we cannot recommend Valentin highly enough to anyone visiting Normandy.

Tips for visiting Mont St. Michel

Ophorous provides the abbey ticket and transportation. Our trip driver/guide Valentin explained that due to crowds Go to the Abbey at the top first, while not busy, then after stop at view points for pictures, then shop at village shops and stop for lunch as the place explodes with tourists coming in, and lastly go out onto the sand if low tide, and get photo ops. It was a great tip, and then you can walk back and cut over on the right side dirt path to pass by the sheep for awesome pics on the way back to the meeting point.

We had a great tour with Pascal, whose knowledge of the war and his passion on the subject made the trip very memorable. We learnt so much about The D Day landing and came away knowing far more than when we started
