Jerine was the perfect guide. She showed us the highlights of Lille old town and gave us plenty of suggestions for what to do on our remaining trip. The tour really helped us understand more about the history of Lille and brought the city alive.
Our guide Anna was extremely knowledgeable about Lille and gave us a very memorable tour. She pointed out many hidden gems and historic points of interest, and with a wonderful sense of humour as well. We had a great morning exploring the city!
Anne was hands down one of the most knowledgeable, friendly and interesting tour guides I've had. She guided us round the top spots in Lille and had several surprises in stores throughout. The personal touch she brought to the tour didn't go unnoticed. Many thanks!
