Exceptional Guide and Unforgettable Experience! - I had the pleasure of joining a tour led by Joseph, and I must say, it was one of the most memorable experiences I've ever had. From the very beginning, Joseph’s passion for his work and deep knowledge of the area were evident. He is not just a guide but a true storyteller, bringing every site and scene to life with fascinating details and anecdotes that you won't find in any guidebook. Joseph's expertise is matched only by his warm personality and his genuine care for every member of the group. He was attentive to everyone's needs, making sure we were all comfortable and engaged throughout the tour. His ability to weave together history, culture, and personal stories created a rich tapestry that truly deepened our understanding and appreciation of the places we visited.

Illuminating - Seeing the grotto and hearing about the entire history. Bernadette’s family background and her trials and tribulations gave me an insight in what this girl experienced. Our guide - Joseph - gave a in-depth description of every aspect of the miracles that occurred

It was a very good tour... - It was a very good tour and the guide was excellent. However I think that there needs to be better communication. I prepaid for a 10:00 tour and had to switch to the 2:00 P. M. tour because of your schedule. I prepaid but the guide thought I was going to pay after the tour and I had no money on me. Also my name was not on the list for the 2:00 P. M. Tour after the time change. That’s why it’s 4 stars instead of 5.

Not worth the money - The tour guide was very friendly & informed. He was able to get us into the water gesture quickly. I gave a 3-star rating because it’s not worth the money. The free tour by the sanctuary is more informative.

Interesting leadership - but there is still room for improvement in the organization. - The tour was very interesting. However, we were informed the day before by SMS that we should be at the meeting point 15 minutes before the start of the tour. We arrived on time a quarter of an hour earlier, but the guide did not. We waited and because it had quite a lot of people there and we didn’t know how to recognize the guide, we asked other groups who also started from there if this was the tour we had booked. The guide then showed up - actually just in time for the agreed time - and did not know that we were in line earlier. In addition, as no German tour was offered, we had booked it in English. But the English of the guide was not quite so easy to understand. For someone who does not speak the language so well, it would have been quite difficult to follow the explanations. The guide was very nice and still gets a good review from us. He explained a lot to us and also answered our numerous questions very readily. So: He did a good job.

A little Disappointing - I booked an English tour but the guide tried to accommodate the one French speaker in our group. This cut into our time. Also we spent approximately 40minutes of the 2 hour tour waiting in a line up. I had booked the tour to avoid that.

Disrespectful guide - Our guide was extremely rude with our group with no consideration on two seniors over 80 years old in need of enough time to get the wheelchairs needed. In addition was very disrespectful with my wife to the point we had to leave the tour almost at the beginning. His name is Joseph and I will be asking for a formal apology from Viator.
