Your experience with a Greeter It was a fantastic time with a wonderful greeter in a beautiful city Michael, Germany — April 2022 I found the perfect greeter in Anne! She showed me things I would never have discovered or even thought of looking for. She really knows her city. She is such good company and we got on so well that we met twice after the initial tour. I can’t recommend her strongly enough. Jane, Germany — Mars 2022 I spent a wonderful morning with Jean-Pierre who took me around in his Cimiez area. He was so kind to give me a lot of explanations and stories and the historical background in a very attractive manner, so that I never will forget it ! It really was a perfect stroll and I am sure that this is the best way to learn a lot about a city you don’t know.
