An excellent walking tour - Very good walking tour of current day Le Havre. We got to see the city as it was rebuilt after being bombed out at the end of WWII by the master architect and city planner, August Perret. Very good walking tour of the city plus an over view of its early history. Our guide was very knowledgeable.

"Le Havre: France's Modern Coastal Gem" - Le Havre is a city in northern France, on the coast where the Seine River meets the English Channel. It’s a big port city, known for shipping and trade. The city was heavily damaged in World War II, so much of it was rebuilt with modern concrete buildings, designed by architect Auguste Perret. This gives it a unique, organized look, and it’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site because of this. Le Havre has a mix of old and new. You can visit the St. Joseph Church, with its tall, colorful tower, or the Musée d’Art Moderne André Malraux, which has lots of impressionist paintings. The beach is pebbly but good for walks, and there are parks like the Jardins Suspendus for relaxing. It’s a working-class city with a maritime vibe—think fishing boats, ferries, and cranes. The weather is often cool and rainy, typical for Normandy. People enjoy fresh seafood, like mussels and cod, and the city has a lively market. It’s less touristy than other French cities, but it’s authentic and has a strong sense of history.

Could be better - Average. Not our first time using this tour format - so we know what to expect. We know it won’t be a professional tour guide but more like a friend showing you around the city. Christian is a lovey man however he could be more talkative. Fortunately I’m a bit of a talker myself but there will be many who would expect the host to lead a conversation. We had a great time (as always) and Christian is a great person - but there is room for improvement in guiding people around Le Havre. Still an enjoyable experience!

Very little value for money. 3 hours tour with hardly any explanation or interaction I will not use lokafy again. - Very little value for money . I booked a 3 hours tour in Le Havre for €72p.p.. In the first 90min we had a look at the few highlights from Le Havre with hardly any explanation . We ended up at the local tourist office before walking another 90 min along the beachfront again without much interaction with the guide. I contacted lokafy to let them know I was not happy and that it would maybe be fair to get a refund for the last hour since there was not much guiding anymore at that moment but they told me the tour is supposed to be a walk with a friend and since I did the tour they would not do anything. I will not use lokafy ever again
