Comments from James's guests:

"I just wanted to say thanks for a fantastic tour on Friday morning. James was very good and gave our stay in Paris an extra dimension"
– Chris Chalk

"Dear James- we had the most wonderful trip to Normandy- and we had you to thank for making it so memorable and outstanding! It will certainly be among our most favorite European adventures!!We will have taken a very special part of history home with us –and the visions of the D-Day Landings and emotions of World War II will forever be etched in our memories and hearts. You were so informative and certainly a pleasure to be with on our journey! Thank you so very much and we wish you all the very best. Warmest regards! “

“My wife and I want to take this means of telling you how enjoyable your walking tours were. We feel we saw and learned a lot and that they were well worth your charges.”

A Testimonial from a Travel Agent:

"Your Guide Mr. James M'Kenzie was outstanding. I was advised by the New York office that we were to have one of the top ten guides in France. As far as we were concerned he was the number one guide in France. Over the past eight years I have organized many trips to Europe, South America, Central America and Africa. We generally have very competent guides. Therefore when these clients commented to me that Mr. M'Kenzie was the best guide that we have ever had, their comments are based on their previous tour experiences. (Some of the clients have taken over 20 trips with me). Mr. M'Kenzie is very knowledgeable in the areas of history, government, art and architecture etc."

Among Abercrombie & Kent comments :

To whom it may concern :

James has been employed as a freelance guide for Abercrombie and Kent for a number of years. He has guided our escorted group tours throughout Europe and particularly in France. He also worked as a driver-guide for FIT clients. He has recently guided two of our escorted family tours with great success.

James is extremely knowledgeable, helpful and pleasant. We find him a delight to work with and he is very thorough in his pre-tour organisation, on- tour operations and post-tour feedback. Client feedback has been consistently excellent and below you will find a sample of clients' comments :

'His briefings on the historical background of the places we visited greatly enhanced the itinerary. Without it , we would have burnt out before the trip's end'.

'He was very accommodating in meeting our requests and answering questions. We really enjoyed James and he was like part of our family – very great depths of knowledge of art and history. He was very helpful'.

'Patient with teenagers ; politely kept group moving to accomplish all that was planned'

'Excellent , had great knowledge of the country, history, roads and was pleasant company, also a good driver. His knowledge was superb ; I would recommend him to all that take A&K tours'
