Very pleasant two hours in Cherbourg

Mark_B, Aug 2025
We spent two hours in the company of Laurent, who was a very kind and generous host. He used his own vehicle to take us to a couple of points of interest outside the town, followed by a very pleasant stroll through the town, swapping stories, with Laurent pointing out things as we passed by. The pace was perfect, and left us feeling we need to visit for longer next time, when we would be more than happy to meet with Laurent again. Highly recommend.

Would recommend Subadin again

Subadin was a great guide. He was friendly and knowledgeable and he arranged to have good weather too!!

Go where you want!

Maithri was a terrific guide to her adopted city. She was so enthusiastic and ready to take us wherever we wanted to go. I highly recommend booking with Lokafy, especially if all the guides are as delightful as this one. I feel like we have a friend in Cherbourg should we ever return

Lovely tour!

Dennis_P, Apr 2024
Maithri, gave us such a lovely morning tour. She was so gracious to stop and interrupt the tour to let us look around different places we thought very interesting at our leisure. One of the highlights was the umbrella factory - what an interesting place! We enjoyed this tour very much.

Great Tour!
