Lots of history about the local area, with some stories woven into the experience. Pierre is also quite an actor !!
Response from Host, Sep 2026
Thank you so much, Jonathan, for your kind review!
We’re delighted that you enjoyed discovering Honfleur’s history and the stories shared during the tour. And yes… Pierre does like to bring the past to life with a bit of theatrical flair! 😊
It was a pleasure to welcome you, and we hope to see you again on another adventure in Normandy.
Warm regards,
Maria.
This was such a great experience! From the beginning our guide Pierre was animated, funny and very knowledgeable. He clearly loves Honfleur and it came through in the stories and details of the tour. We
took his advice and afterwards
walked up a steep path to get
La Chapelle de Grace, the view was
definitely worth it. We highly recommend this tour.

Our guide, Bastien, was genuine and engaging. He is from Honfleur and provided the perfect combination of historical and personal experiences. We were absolutely delighted with the tour.
Viator would do well to keep Bastien at the top of their list.

BOOK THIS TOUR! We had the most amazing tour with Pierre- I absolutely cannot recommend this more. It truly made our time in Honfleur so much more special. He is so funny and smart. He knows all of the details of the area and grew up here so can recommend all of the best shops, foods, and says hi to locals as you tour. I really think it made our appreciation of this beautiful town x 1,000. He was very kind and engaging with my 9 and 4 year old which was wonderful. And if you think you don’t need a tour, think twice! We did this on the first day we arrived and I am so so glad.

His local roots, humor, and deep knowledge of Honfleur’s history (and hidden gems!) are what make Honfleurtours unique, and it’s wonderful to know you felt that connection throughout the tour.
We’re especially happy to hear that your children enjoyed the experience too — we love making our tours family-friendly and engaging for all ages. Starting your trip with a guided Honfleurtours e-bike tour really is the perfect way to appreciate this beautiful town even more.
Thank you again for the incredible recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back on your next visit to Normandy! 🚲🇫🇷

This was a fun tour, hitting the highlights on a short walk through town. ("Short": about two hours). We weren't in Honfleur very long, and we felt this was a great way to get a sense of the town and its history (and the history of Normandy). Covers three churches, several of the old streets and buildings, the harbor, and more.
We've been on several walking tours elsewhere, and this was one of our favorites. Pierre was a great guide, fluent in (at least) French and English. Great details on the large and small of the history.
Highly recommended!
Response from Host, Aug 2024
Thanks for the wonderful review! We're glad you enjoyed the tour and found it informative. Pierre will be thrilled to hear your praise. Safe travels and hope to see you again! Maria, HONFLEURTOURS
Pierre created a vivid story for Honfleur and its peoples through the years. Interesting facts, animated presentation, and great sense of humor. Plus, he has a wonderful fund of knowledge, so questions get good answers. He's a native of Honfleur, so he has inside information. Plus his English is perfect.
