An excellent guide! - Two guided tours of Nancy with Leopold and two very interesting experiences! This guide is excellent from all points of view: not only does it know everything about the architecture and history of its city, region and country, but it also expresses itself in a very clear and educational way. It is quite rare to meet a guide of this quality.

Discovering Art Nouveau in Nancy - We are pleased to have opted for a guided tour of Nancy because we would have missed many buildings and would not have known the history. We were also able to enter places we would not have had access to. In 1 hour and a half we discovered the beauties of art nouveau and learned its origins. We will repeat the experience to discover other facets of Nancy whose riches we have not explored.
