Great having a knowledgeable tour guide. - Having a tour guide helps to experience the Lourdes sanctuary much more. This is true especially when the tour guide knows the people coordinating visits. This seemed even so with our tour guide Joseph.

Lovely Lourdes - Veronique was excellent. She provided an excellent discussion of the history and story of this lovely place. You’d be lucky to have her as a guide.

Guided walking tour of the sanctuary churches basilica and crypt of Lourdes. - Veronique was very informative and interesting. It was a hot day so remember sunscreen. It was also quite a long time to be on my feet. I needed a nap afterwards

Lourdes waking tour was great - Our tour guide Joseph was great. We learned about the story of St. Bernadette and all the miracles happened in Lourdes. The church is amazing and feeling blessed to have a prayers and waited for almost 3 hours to get inside just to have a private prayers and miraculous healing blessed water from the fountain & you can drink and bring more to share to the family and friends

Must-see - Impressive! Despite the world (visit on August 15) everything is very well organized and indicated. We chose to visit the sanctuary with a guide which allowed us to better understand the place.

Very expensive for what is offered - Good but very expensive for what is offered. Indeed, by taking a book on history, we would have had the same information. I thought we'd be given an explanation about the basilica and everything. But apart from the very interesting story of Bernadette soubirou, some figures on the city.... The guide was nevertheless very friendly. But having put down a 200 euro bill for 5, I expected something much more complete. It's a bit of stealing.

We didn’t make it in time due to difficulty finding the parking. - I think it is one of the great places to visit! It is a holy place and must for Catholics and those who have strong faith to be healed.

The experience was not as... - The experience was not as expected, not as much information given that could have been, didn’t really learn much from this experience, and not shown all of the facilities, such as the Basillca and the grotto, also the description of the tour stated “entry included” but the few places we visited had free entry

Had some difficulty... - Had some difficulty understanding the tour guide because of his accent. He repeated himself several times during presentation. And he could have been more tactful when he said tourists should not pray too long because we need to stick together.

- The guide made the experience terrible. He was rude and unfriendly. What was supposed to be a 2h tour finished in 90minutes with half the time wasted but him chatting with other people. Absolutely do not recommend him as a guide.
