See a lot in 1 tour

Great way to see a lot of the city in 1 tour. Sarah was a great guide. We did the tour in +40°C and still survived. LOL! Definitely recommend if you want to see a lot of monuments in 1 tour.

Paris 5hr walking tour - Excellent

Jasimin (Yasmin?) was a wonderful guide. She made the entire tour entertaining with lots of information. I would totally recommend her as a guide. It was a great preview of various parts of the city and gave us ideas for our next trip that we didn't have time for on this trip. I hope we are able to book her again on our next Paris trip.

Unforgettable Paris experience – a must-do!

This 5-hour walking tour with Daniel was absolutely amazing and one of the best things we did in Paris. Our licensed guide was exceptional — fun, engaging, incredibly knowledgeable, and made the whole experience feel effortless and exciting. We laughed, learned, and discovered Paris in a way we never could have on our own. The time flew by, the atmosphere was fantastic, and we came away with unforgettable memories and a real connection to the city. Fun, clear, and truly unforgettable — this tour is a must for anyone visiting Paris. Highly recommended!

Great insite into Paris

I would highly recommend this walking tour. 5 hrs seems a long time but it goes quickly and you visit many iconic attractions and gives you a good insite into each and helps you decide which ones you may want to come back to and spend more time. Olivia our tour guide was brilliant and extremely knowledgeable.

Fantastic tour

Alex was a local so she was so knowledgeable and engaging. She took us all over the city of Paris walking and the metro. By doing this we now know how to use that system. We highly recommend her for this tour. Thank you for a great experience.

Phenomenal way to see a lot of Paris!

100% recommend this INCREDIBLE and very comprehensive tour! Our guide, Yasmin, was so helpful and kind, and did a fantastic job keeping track of everyone and providing informational and entertaining commentary. Be prepared: This is a very full 5 hours with lots of walking, but it is so worth it! Wear comfortable shoes, and bring a water bottle, raincoat or umbrella, and sunglasses.
