The tour guides english was not good, I really had trouble understanding him. He didn’t come prepared (no additional photos, no maps, basically no extra material to show us). The tour ended 15 min early. All in all, not worth that much money.

We are very glad we did the walking tour of historic Dijon with Fred. His knowledge of the history of the city and region provided so much context for the rest of our visit. Fred was also very accommodating of our kids and worked in a sorbet stop along the way!

Loved our walking tour. We booked at the last minute and I am so pleased we did. We learned so much about Dijon that we never would have discovered on our own.

We went on this tour for our study abroad company, the tour went very well! The tour guide was very friendly, only thing to note was he did go overtime and our students were beginning to get tired by the end. Overall great experience!

This was excellent. Our guide was friendly, knowledgable and interesting. Her Engish was excellent. We were given a running commentary which included a brief history of Dijon and the Duchy of Burgundy, were shown the sights in context and shown things we otherwise wouldn't have discovered ourselves, and given helpful recommendations about things to do and see. She collected us at our hotel, and one unexpected bonus was that she started the tour by taking us through the hotel, part of which was built in the 13th or 14th century (I don't remember which), talking about its construction, layout, history and original function. The original part was still largely intact. It was a good start, and the high standard continued.

Great short walking tour of the old town. Kelly was very knowledgeable and adapted our tour to our interest. It was a great way to start our trip.

We met our guide in front of the fountain in the old town center. She was very knowledgeable and told us interesting facts about each building, store, statue, and cathedral. We had time to take puctures aling the way.

These 9 and 10 May 2023, despite an insistent rain, our group spent 2 friendly and exciting mornings thanks to our guide Frédéric of the OT of Dijon who detailed the history and life of the capital of Burgundy during the Middle Ages and the renaissance up to the present day. Our guide gave us a humorous and cultural account, events, anecdotes, customs and habits, the evolution of the city and society that we tasted without moderation ANAFACEM RHA

Without professional guide but with the leaflet provided by the tourist office. The city is very beautiful. The spectacular architecture. The leaflet is very well made and the route is very clear in the streets. It's called "The Owl Course." Not to be missed. Another place not to be missed is the National Gallery. Very rich, very convenient access. Dijon is a city to discover.
