MoreMy two adult children and I took a tour with Thibaud Canus . It started with meeting us at a cafe in Paris where we immediately understood that this is a very special tour guide. His ability to weave a story passionately and purposefully was amazing. His enthusiasm was infectious, and he had a lovely sense of humor. As we took the train to Versailles, he gave us historical background to the times and how Louis XIII grew up. When we got to Versailles, our brains were already full, but we couldn’t let him down! So we powered on! 4 hours later, we had an education under our belt. There is no way we could have known the significance of the design, the gardens, the statues and paintings without Thibaud and his infectious enthusiasm.
MoreI can't say enough good things about Context Travel! I have been on 5 tours and each has been incredible. The guides are so personable, knowledgeable and interesting. Being able to tour Tokyo and London in such a small group really made all the difference.
MoreI took the Topography of Terror: Nazi Berlin tour with Context Travel and loved it! The walk limited the group to an intimate number, which enabled everyone to connect with the local scholar. The group size also meant that our docent went into detail about the sites on our walk. Our docent, Robert, was very personable, knowledgeable and enthusiastic about sharing the history of Berlin. He brought the various monuments, memorials and other sites to life. Robert's own experiences added insight to the walk; he grew up in East Berlin behind the wall and was a teenager at the dawn of a united Germany.
MoreWe hired Context Travel on the recommendation of friends for a half day architectural walking tour of Tokyo. We were delighted to be led by John Tran, a delightful and well informed guide and professional photographer who lives both in metro Tokyo and London and had been a professor of art (photography) at a local university. We had been to Tokyo a number of times before, but his knowledge and insight and focus on our interests made the day a hit. Context Travel arranged the right guy for our interests, which is all you can ask. We would certainly call on them - and John - again.
