"We Were very pleased. Isabelle was wonderful. She had a great mannerism with the kids, she managed to help us get a lot in our short day and a half with her".
Sean Cook - August 2009.
A huge thank you for your excellent service. Muguet was a wonderful guide for all four of our outings, and made our trip a very special experience. Your drivers and vehicles were reliable and timely. A completely professional operation. Much appreciated. You can count on us using your services in the future. Thanks again.

I wanted to give you a critique of our recent trip to France that
contained multiple pieces from you. First of all, let me say that everything went
perfectly and was a delight. Here are a few specifics:
Day tour of Giverny and Versailles: Isabelle was a delight. She was extremely accommodating and her knowledge was impressive.
All of us almost cried as she described the fate of the children of Marie Antoinette while we stood
in front of the painting of Marie A and her children. Isabelle represented you very well.
David Naftel – April 2009
We absolutely loved John, who was much more than a driver and guide. We were astounded at his knowledge of all the areas we visited, but especially of the D-Day beaches and sites.….Not only was he knowledgeable, he was courteous (heaven knows what he thought when he first picked up this group of cackling, crazy Americans), efficient (often picking up lunch for us while we shopped or toured), and considerate (bringing umbrellas and making reservations at crowded restaurants). It would not have been the same trip without him. We feel so lucky to have had him as our guide."

"Dear Didier
Thank you so much for your email. We had an absolutely marvellous trip.
Thank you for all your arrangements. Al was just fantastic. Please pass on our
sincere thanks to him also. Thanks so much again. I will be in touch with the
details soon. Best wishes"

"Didier
I write to say thank you for helping make our trip to France and Paris so wonderful.
Al offered us an exceptional day in Paris. He took us through winding roads past well
known and more secret treasures, all accompanied by his rich storytelling and history
lesson. We experienced all the major sites and had plenty of time to make the visits
we wanted to make. He is a very exceptional guide and historian too. Please accept and
extend our appreciation to Al for this wonderful conclusion to our France adventure!"…
Isabelle is equally exceptional...I was not certain that Isabelle was connected with
Artventures or merely a colleague/friend of Al's.
Isabelle has a passion for le Louvre, its history and all the
little stories that gave a richness to our visit. She was so very kind and helpful
to my mom, who was in the wheelchair. she truly made our visit special.
Thank her for us please. we will always remember both Al and Isabelle!"

"Dear Mr. Jordan,
My clients returned yesterday from their 2 week trip to France and called to tell
me how very excellent their guides were in Paris and in Nice. They couldn't have
been more pleased with Artventures service, punctuality, knowledge and professionalism.
Thank you for all your help and patience in working with me. I will certainly use the
services of your company in the future and recommend you to my associates in the travel
industry here in California.
Sincerely, Judith Rowen".

"Hi Didier
Many thanks again for the lovely guided tour of the Normandy beaches,
Canadian and American memorials and Bayeux. Although we enjoyed all the wonderful sights
and sounds of Amsterdam and Paris during our week in Europe, we all agree that the Normandy
beaches tour was the highlight of our trip! and that this was certainly due to your expertise
as a tour guide and bountiful knowledge of historical events and general information about
the Normandy area!! We all truly enjoyed meeting you and thank you once again for a very memorable day!!"
