Great way to experience Lourdes. - Our guide, Lauri, was very good. She was engaging as she told stories of Bernadette and her family during the time of her apparitions. We were there while several masses were going on so we could not go into the Grotto. I would recommend this private tour to anyone interested in the history or Bernadette and Lourdes.

What's a little flooding?? - Even though flooding altered some site visits, Laure took good care to give us an informative, interesting and leisurely tour. She communicated well thru app as well as sending another guide over in person to make sure we knew of her delay. We made it to the remaining sites and she added the covered market since we had time. Laurie also followed up the next day to update us regarding the previous flood closure. We enjoyed our tour and Laure and can highly Recommend her!

the cost of parking is the same as in Paris! - Far too many shops of religious objects and especially a prohibitive parking cost while places not missing,, more than 40 euros for the day, we pay all night!
