Dear ComeToFrance, bonjour! We are home after a wonderful trip. My husband was very pleased with all the accommodations and how perfectly everything seemed to work. Thank you for all your help. My husband and family asked me several times on the trip if I had "planned" it all this way, and chosen every hotel and detail. I explained to them that I spent one year telling Alex what we wanted and he made the arrangements! You asked for our evaluation and insight to our experience, here are a few comments. Before the trip, my biggest concern was that my husband would be able to sleep well. He is very restless, plus, I didn't tell you that years ago his brother was attacked in a hotel and left for dead. That makes my husband a little nervous about hotels. What he liked about both these hotels were the two sets of double paned windows in the rooms and the two sets of doors. That made them very quiet. My husband didn't hear street noise or hall noise at all. The bed at the Holiday Inn in Caen was small, but ok. Air conditioning was important too. We don't use mini bars in the rooms, but I know some people do. The Hotel Bel Ami was our favorite and I will be recommending it to other friends. The location was perfect, the decor beautiful, and the internet connections very useful. Their breakfast was fine; my husband would have liked a hot food available for breakfast, but that was not a problem. The street and the area around Rue Saint Benoit was just what we wanted. We walked everywhere! We also enjoyed Moulin Rouge, but I was annoyed with the photo they took of us there. It was a terrible picture, and the cost is too high when you must agree to buy it before they even take it. The food was good, and even though the waiters allowed my daughter, who is vegetarian, to make a selection from the menu.
We were very pleased with Gerard and Valerie at the private transfer company. They were most professional, Gerard is an excellent and safe driver. I think we might have worn them out, though. We had Valerie with us going to Normandy, but that was wonderful. She was most helpful with her English and also found the tiny little towns on the map that my husband wanted to go to. She also made restaurant recommendations to us. Her assistance at the Defense Ministry in Caen was extremely helpful and my husband was very appreciative that she also made a phone call for us and got another address for us to write to about the Croix de Guerre. We also were most fortunate to find another identical Croix de Guerre at the Bon March antique store in Paris. It has the same ribbon, date and bronze star of my husband's father. My husband bought it for his brother so that each of them would have one as a memory of their father. We puchased an additional medal of Verdun which he also was awarded that is the same, but less important for WWII than for WW I. The WW I memorials in Verdun were most impressive. What did I like the best? The fact that my husband got to do what he wanted, and that Gerard and Valerie would take us anywhere he wanted. It was most gratifying. My other most favorite thing was the Notre Dame of Reims. I found it to be more beautiful than Notre Dame in Paris, with more significant history. The Marc Chagall windows there were just spectacular. I did love the d'Orsay and the Louvre, but I need to spend many more days there to absorb it all. I need to research two paintings I saw there, and want to find out more about. My husband (and one son-in-law) are not museum lovers, but they did well. We walked from the Louvre to the Arc and back to Notre Dame one day. It was tiring, but beautiful. Thank you for arranging such nice weather for us too!! (You are so powerful!) Many thanks and I hope we have another opportunity to work with you again. Do you have any observations for us about our trip? Anything we might have done differently?? Best regards, Melinda, CA, USA

Thanks so much for all your help. The dinner on the Seine was the highlight of our trip. We had the best table - right at the bow of the boat. The food and the service were marvellous - and of course the atmosphere was perfect! What a perfect evening!!

Next time I come to Paris, I will definitely be using your service again. It was easy, quick, and very personable. I felt like someone was at the other end, which is VERY rare these days with internet sites. Thanks for the hassle-free reservations that went extremely smooth!

Yes we had a really wonderful time in Paris and Moulin Rouge was the highlight of our trip. It was our 25 wedding anniversary and that is why we selected Moulin Rouge. We wanted to do something really special - mind you, just being in Paris again was special in itself - but the Moulin Rouge was very very special and we loved it. Thank you for your service. It was great to know that it was booked and paid for in advance and there were no problems at all on the night. The food was great and as I say, it was a very special night for us both and the highlight of our trip. Thanks again. Regards

Bonjour, I arrived home to Florida at 23 hours, January 1, 2003. Paris was tres bien!!! Your services were tres bien. My name was on ALL of the lists you made reservations for me / us. I believe you are offering a good service for I had to go only to you to make all of my reservations. There is simply so much to see in Paris and outside of Paris. The tours make it easy and convenient to be able to see a lot of the beauty and wonder of Paris. We all especially liked the Paris Vision tours by vans. I enjoyed the small group and the knowledgeable commentary on what we were seeing. Again thank you. I am very happy that all of our tours worked out so well. Happy New Year!!! And I look forward to my next trip to PARIS!!! Deborah C. FL, USA
