Excellent experience - This tour exceeded my expectations. Maarten is passionate about history and provided excellent commentary throughout the afternoon. His ability to explain historic events through storytelling is unrivaled. We saw three jaw-dropping villages (the river was unnavigable due to high water). I highly recommend Maarten and this tour.

Wonderful half day tour - Wonderful half day tour including 3 villages. Martin was a wealth of historical information on the changes over hundreds of years here in the Dordogne Valley.

Brilliant tour of the Black Perigord. First class! - Martin is the most knowledgeable guide you could have in this region. It was captivating as he unraveled the insights and intrigues of the historically complex Black Perigord. Unsurpassed

Ophorus guide Anne was great! - Anne was a great guide - very animated, very knowledgeable, and always putting the guests’ interests first. The boat ride was nice, but the speaker on the boat trip needs to change his narrative. I listened to the French because it is impossible to listen to the English version on the headphones while he is speaking. He made a lot of jokes that even the native French speakers did not get, and a lot of them were political jokes. That is totally inappropriate for a vacation tour with tourists of several nationalities. Loved Beynac and la Roque-Gageac. Enjoyed Domme, but we did not have enough time there. All in all, the tour and our guide Anne were top notch, and I realize they have no control over the narrator on the boat, but perhaps Ophorus could make him aware of the discomfort he causes.

Excellent half day tour of the Dordogne and its Villages - Benoit was very good and knowledge and despite the rain in places our group of 6 had a great time on the half day tour.👌👍

To discover, for the greatest pleasure - For the second time passing through this village, with as much pleasure in wandering there, and seeing this English artist again, hiding in the attic, to find him he will be in this old and magnificent building facing the church, you will be surprised .

Great trip with a great guide - Excellent trip with a super guide, visiting 3 beautiful villages and a 50 minute boat tour. Timings were good, and we had enough time in each place, with extra information from our guide who was very knowledgeable. Good shoes such as trainers are needed as there are steps and some steep paths, so flip flops not a good idea. I would definitely recommend this trip.

A very enjoyable Afternoon! - We had a great day with our guide Ann! The little villages are beautiful. Beynac is very steep to walk through the middle! Just be advised. The boat ride was very enjoyable with beautiful views. I only wish that we could have understood the French boat guide, but our English headsets were still very informative. He had the French visitors laughing! A very enjoyable day!

Dordogne trip - Boat ride along the Dordogne. Visits to 2 beautiful Towns. Good guide called Ann Could have done with more time in Domme to explore or have a drink and enjoy the view

Ophorus was a disappointment - After seeing positive reviews I contacted them to ask about private or small group tours. I was expecting something similar to my highly successful experience with Context Tours in Italy. This experience was terrible. Marion was slow to respond. She kept trying to treat my friend and I as a couple going so far as to book us in one room and sending me a single bill though we repeatedly told her we were two individuals who required individual bills and separate rooms. She insisted on booking our hotel in Sarlat but screwed around until we had no lodging options except for a tour group hotel that was very basic. It turns out she booked us for a series of their standard daily tours rather than helping us plan something special. The guide was okay, nothing special, and frankly we saw more interesting things on our own than they arranged. The total cost of the tour and hotel were far higher than the value provided. It is very easy to plan a better experience for yourself than to rely on Ophorus.
