Passionate and exciting - Punctual, passionate and exciting, David shared with us some of the treasures of this magnificent region: Beynac Castle very impressive, Roque-Gageac on the cliff side, Domme overlooking the Dordogne and the partly Romanesque church of Carsac. His electric VW van is great. Especially pleasant because a mild weather with a large blue sky protected us. To contact again if we return to the area for a more prehistoric trip.

An excellent tour guide - David was an excellent guide, easy to talk to, well informed and interesting. His selection of sites and places to visit in four hours around Sarlat would have taken us a couple of days to accomplish! We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and would highly recommend it.

Choose This One! - What a perfect afternoon! David provided enough information to be interesting without overloading us with facts. But he also had an answer for every question we had. David picked us up near our Airbnb in medeival Sarlat and took us to several locations. It was great to have someone drive us straight to where it was convenient to be dropped off and he provided just the right amount of information. Highly recommend!

Fantastic - David was an excellent guide and driver, explaining everything in clear English. The tour was private, meaning that we could select from sightseeing options and that there were no other people in our tour. David showed us the prehistoric caves of Cougnac , showed us Beynac Castle, and other sites, and gave detailed remarks about the history,, geology and geography of the Dordogne area. He was professional and polite. We recommend him and this tour very highly.

Interesting Introduction to Dordogne - We had an informative and interesting ride around part of the Dordogne Valley and stopped at particular points of interest such as two Romanesque churches, a view of Beynac Castle, and a breathtaking view from the top in another city where we could see over the whole plain below. Quite awe-inspiring. Our guide told us some interesting history and then stopped at La Roque-Gageac where our guide dropped us to take a 50 minute boat tour on our own with an audio guide. Having a guide certainly started the trip with a nice introduction but it seemed a bit pricy for the time actually spent with us.
