Tour without much interest in terms of visiting places. A first part around the St Gilles cathedral, then the second in a four-room basement, with a kitsch decor in the style of Disney’s Ghost Manor. The main interest is the guide, Frédéric Knox for our part, who dramatizes and gives an interest to these insipid places with historical anecdotes. If you are not fluent in English, go your way: you will not understand the subtleties of this British humor and the only places seen are not worth it.
