The guided tour with Paul was amazing! He did not only explained things, but also made you engage and pay attention to details. Ypu could see in the explanation all the preparation for the tour. Totally recommended for a more personalised tour with a sense of humor!

Paul packs a lot into this walk, it’s full of information and is well researched with photos and stories. There is a good atmosphere with ‘medals’ awarded for answers to questions along the way. Moves along, no hanging about. Thoroughly recommend. (Paul, have already recommended to Italian friend Daniele, he is coming in August).

Very knowledgeable and interesting guide. Informative and entertaining with an approachable manner. Equal focus on the historical role of men and women which was appreciated, and very mindful of children and less mobile members of the group.

Paul provided a comprehensive and enjoyable presentation of the events in Carcassonne during WWII. He supported his tour with many useful photos and brought us to the various places crucial to the German Occupation in Carcassonne as well as describing what was occurring in France as well as other areas of Europe. I highly recommend this tour and the guide, Paul.
