What our clients say...
Anne M. from , OR. Private tour from Cologne to see Dusseldorf and
Nieder-Wiessen to do genealogical research.
Peter was fabulous. Had a lot of info about Jews in the area, including all
the Jewish cemeteries. He was a wonderful translator and very assertive in
asking locals information. We could not have asked for more.
