What people say about us

Invalides - Olivier was an excellent guide

Olivier was an excellent guide. We learned a lot about French (military) history and Napoleon I. One of the best guiding experiences I ever had.

Invalides & Napoleon - Visit to Invalides

Our guide was very thorough, knowledgeable, and pleasant. We felt engaged and welcome. She was excellent. My favorite part was the altar designed by Bernini. And the history behind the different tombs, and sections of the building.
