Pierre,
I just wanted to take a minute to thank you again for a wonderful day in Normandy. We all had a great time and were so impressed with you and your knowledge of the area. You run a first class tour!!! Your patience with us and your enthusiasm for your tour was very impressive. As my Mom said "you brought Normandy alive for her". Thanks again for providing us a once in a lifetime opportunity to see Normandy!

Bonjour Pierre!
I want to add words of deep appreciation for making our trip to Normandy so enjoyable!
Your knowledge of history and your obvious love of the area were very evident. You were a great help to me as I learned about what DDay was like for my Uncle on Utah Beach and for all the brave young men who sacrificed so much that day. My children can pass down to their children what we have seen and heard so the heroism of these men will never be forgotten. May you have many more sunny days in beautiful France! Merci Beaucoup!

Merci!Jay Chapman

Hello Pierre
We can't thank you enough for taking us on such an incredible tour. Your patience with us was deeply appreciated. Dylan especially found the trip to Normandy an experience of a lifetime. Even his continued learning of the French language, with your help, was enjoyable for him and a plus for us after we left you.
We would all like to return to France again one day in the future.
It was great to meet you, and our family wishes you all the best in your days to come as a tour director and in all that you do. Your expertise in the knowledge of Normandy is superior. We totally enjoyed our time with you, and will definitely refer you to all that we know who may be touring in the future.
We had a wonderful vacation, and Normandy was definitely the highlight of our two weeks in Europe, thanks to you. We are blessed to have met you. We wish you all the best in your future, and if you ever get to the USA and Colorado, please come stay with us. Our home is open to you!
Thank you again for your dedicated time.
Sincerely,
The Beresford's

We had a splendid tour of the Normandy region, capturing both the local, personal insights of Pierre's 500 year family history in the area, in addition to tremendous historical details about the area, with all it's battles, cathedrals and other landmarks. We wish we'd had several days to get around to even more of the extraordinary sights in the region, with the unique and informed insights provided by Pierre. As an art historian, I especially valued his familiarity with the most "not to be missed" artifacts in the several towns we visited. As Americans, we valued Pierre's admiration and appreciation for the sacrifices of our countrymen on the Normandy beaches.

Bonjour, Pierre. It is a very rainy Monday here, and I slowly getting back to reality.
After three great days in Paris, I flew to NY, and Karen to Istanbul. It had been a very special trip for me, and Normandy was the best of all. I shall never forget it. Your expertise of the area made it a wonderful experience. Thank you so very much. Pat Brown.

Hello Mr Pierre.. Its been a long time since I wanted to write to you but I had temporarily lost your card.
The day I spent with you was one of the most memorable in my life. Not only because of the places I visited but also because of the superlative warmth and hospitality I experienced on that cold drizzly day at Normandy , March 2009. It was not only your depth and degree of knowledge on the Great War and Western Europe but also your passion which was astounding. I wish to relive the experience again and for a much longer duration.. You are a friend , a philosopher and a guide in the truest sense. I really really had a great time. My regards to your family and to your son and his family in Moscow. Your grandson and my son are almost the same age I believe. Anytime you wish to come to my part of the world, India, you are warmly welcome to be my guest.
Warm Regards,
Ajit Kulkarni (Indian Air Force)

Nous avons passé une merveilleuse journée avec Pierre Doublet qui nous a montré plusieurs aspects de la Normandie à commencer avec le Mont St. Michel bien sûre, mais aussi le jardin et le musée Christian Dior à Granville et des abbayes romanes. Pierre connaît très bien l'histoire de la Normandie, il sait parfaitement conduire et il comprend très vite les voeux de ses clients.

Booking a tour online can leave you with some doubts over what leave of service you will receive when you actually get there. But no worries with Pierre. He arrived early to our hotel down in Mount Saint Michael and agreed to start immediately as we were also ready to go and had much ground to cover. His car was clean and in good running order and stocked with some basic refreshments for us. His driving was professional and his manners, conversation and information excellent. He accommodated my needs for a whirlwind tour so that at the end of our one day I was well satisfied with my short visit along the vast majority of the main D-day related sites. I strongly recommend Pierre to anyone looking to enjoy such a tour.

Pierre,
After an exhausting day of traveling across France it was such a delight to have you waiting for us at the train station. Your love of history and the area where you live made our time in Normandy a wonderful experience. To relax and leave the driving to you was a treat beyond measure. We would not think of coming to visit again and not have you as our driver and guide.

Pierre, it was such a pleasure to have your smiling face greet our party of four after a long overnight flight to Paris. Your enthusiasm for Normandy and your knowledge of its history kept us going through the day to Giverny, Caen , and on to our chateau. Your services, with Nicole, over the next two days to the beaches, Mont-St-Michel, and Bayeux provided us comfort, education, and a real kinship with the region. After you drove us back to Paris, with a lunch stopover in Honfleur, we felt like we were traveling with a friend. Thank you for your thoughtful attention and your constant willingness to help make our visit special.
James W. H. Wong
Thank you very much, Pierre, for an wonderful day. You are more than a tour guide. For me, yesterday was a day of lessons in French history and language. Who knows but that I may return for another visit. To climb up to the Abbye? Maybe. And I have to get that parapleuie! If and when you come to Hong Kong, I would be glad to be your guide. Merci et Au revoir!

Piierre,
I thought I would comment on what a wonderful experience Jackie and I had when you gave us a tour of the D-Day beaches. Your warmth, knowledge and fantastic attitdue made the tour an unforgettable one. I found out through our conversation that we share a love of history. The area where you give the tours is an history lovers paradise. The pre-Roman era to the continual conflicts with your neighbors and on to WWII. Your mini-tour of Bayeux was great as well. Again thanks for taking us on the tour! If you want to discuss history please email me!
