Our client's reviews for this activity in the Alps
Aaron
The 14.01.2020
Sibylle was very friendly and very knowledgable with Annecy. She was very thoughtful and even helped us to book a dinner reservation and also some other recommendation for us to travel to around Annecy. The dishes was very interesting to us and we had a lot of fun making the traditional French dishes and her cat was very cute. She also was very engaging with us, asking about Malaysia and our university studies and everything.
