Reviews for Ophorus

Half-Day Tour was the best!

The half-day tour was great! Our host, Valentin, was so knowledgeable and took a lot of time in his explanation. His passion for history was evident! We loved all the stops and had ample time to explore on our own. Would definitely book again! Well worth the money!

Lea made the whole experience delightful! Our little trip to wine country was informative and fun! It was easy on the feet, too! Not at all difficult to get to the tastings. Just hope you get the wonderful companions we did. While the wines were interesting the leadership and co-tasters made the half day worth the time and money!

Wow! Our tour with Anne was exceptional. She was very knowledgeable about the prehistoric and medieval history of the area. We enjoyed her delightful demeanor as she provided so many fascinating facts. Anne also provided good recommendations for other Ophorus Tours. Her English was excellent and she even helped me practice my French!

Victor was a great guide, giving us plenty of information on the way to Mont Saint Michele, and just the right amount of quiet on the way home. He was helpful and humorous and made the day all the more enjoyable. The place itself is well worth the visit, although the earlier you go the less crowded it is… including finding a seat somewhere for lunch!

We really enjoyed this tour. Mathuis drove to two vineyards giving us loads of information on the way, he was fun and knowledgeable. The vineyard staff were great too.

We thoroughly enjoyed our small group wine tour to St Emilion. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable. Very pleased to have chosen this tour.

We were disappointed only wine tasting at 1 winery. St. Emilion tour was repetitious since it is a small town & saw the same things a few times

Guided Saint-Emilion Wine Tasting & Village Visit From Bordeaux

We were a little disappointed only went to 1 winery for tasting. Then there was a tour of St. Emilion which could have been shorter because we felt we saw the same things a few times since it is a snall town.

We took the 8hr D-Day tour. Matt was our tour guide and of all the tours and guides I've experienced in my life, Matt exceeded all of them put together. (I am also a US History teacher who knows this content pretty well. I didn't mention that during the tour because I wanted to be a student and learn...) Of all the things we did in our short week in France, THIS TOUR is what we just can't stop talking about. Matt was spot on with his content mastery, and blended with personal stories he learned from WWII Veterans he gave tours to, this was a highly meaningful and impactful day. His sense of humor is phenomenal and he knew when to incorporate humor and when not to. If we are able to make it back to France/Normandy again one day, I would pre-book a tour with Matt to make sure I get the very best. Thanks, Matt, from Dennis and Nikki, Florida, USA!

Valentin was an excellent tour guide and driver. He was very knowledgeable about Normandy, Dday, and the many battles through to the liberation of France. He had so much knowledge to share that sometimes he talked too much and I would have preferred to use the time to walk around the beaches and the monuments instead of standing and listening. He gave us very good advice for seeing the American Cemetery and honoring fallen paratrooper. Very memorable 🙏 experience.

Bonjour France

We did a total of 3 tours with Ophorus. In Bayeaux our group of 7 split up and two of our family members did the 8 hour DDay Tour with Matt, while the rest of us did the 4 hour DDay Tour with Pascal. These tours were both fantastic. Pascal and Matt were extremely knowledgeable, interactive, energetic, and they made the tours very meaningful to all of us. They each brought different perspectives and shared different facts/stories so it was fun for our group to compare at the end of the day. Our third tour was a Private Half Day Wine Tasting Tour for all 7 of us from Dijon with Valentin. Again, the knowledge that Valentin had about the region, wine, the vineyards was incredible. Valentin answered our questions and shared such interesting information. None of us had much knowledge about wine making and ratings, etc- - the tour and information he communicated to us was perfect. All of our drivers were safe drivers. They were on time. These tours did not disappoint!
