“Unser Guide war Michel. Er führt täglich Gruppen in Rotterdam, denHaag und Delft. Er spricht zwar sehr gut englisch, dies aber extrem schnell. Michel spult sein Programm ab. Jeder Satz gespickt mit einem Witz (teilweise sehr abgedroschen) oder Ironie. Allerdings in einem Tempo abgespult, dass es uns nur sehr schwer möglich war, zu folgen. Keiner lachte und ich habe ihn 2 x gebeten, langsamer zu sprechen, doch beides hat nichts verändert. Er hat wahnsinnig viel erzählt, aber hängengeblieben ist bei uns allen wenig. Michel fehlt das Herzblut, für ihn ist es ein Job und er spult einfach knappe 2 Stunden ab, ohne sein Publikum wahr zu nehmen. Sehr enttäuschend!!”
