My husband, mom and I just returned from a two week trip in France. One of our stops was Verdun. My husband is very interested in WW1 and has visited Verdun before. I knew much less of the history and hadn’t visited Verdun yet. We hired Cecil Graf [email protected] a private tour guide. He is an educator. He has taught English and history. He was born and raised in Paris but now lives about an hour from Verdun. His tour was awesome. He has different suggested agendas but was also open to customizing the tour for us. Given that my husband had visited certain places already but I hadn’t he put together an itinerary that worked for both of us. He was super knowledgeable, had lots of anecdotes and stories that brought the history alive. We visited the Fort Douaumont, Ossuary, American cemetery, American monument and the site of the Battle of Vauquois (split hill). He picked us up and returned us to our flat. He was very affordable. He can take up to 4 people. I highly recommend Cecil’s tours if you are interested in learning more about WW1 and seeing the Verdun battlefields
