Such a nice day

Our group of 4 had a really lovely time today exploring Paris with Camille. She has such a warm and lively personality and made us feel like we were hanging out with a friend. We were impressed by the variety of architecture and the transformations that have shaped Paris into the city it is today. So much insight and still so much left to discover in this beautiful place… We’ll definitely keep only great memories from our trip!

Really nice walk in Paris

Thank you Lucas for a lovely walk around parts of Paris. You showed us some great spots and shared really helpful tips on what to do during the rest of our stay. We also really appreciated how flexible you were with our changing schedule after our late arrival into the city. Would definitely recommend Lucas for a tour of Paris.

Wonderful city and tour

We booked with Matteo at the last minute and even had an unexpected issue, but communicating with him was smooth and he was extremely flexible and understanding. As we walked through Paris he gave us a great overview of the city and shared his passion for its history, architecture, and beauty. It was a really lovely tour!

Truly one of a kind

Etienne was the perfect guide for our Paris walking tour. He’s amazingly well-informed and managed to weave together everything from local politics and design to cuisine and daily culture. Such a warm and engaging host too! We had a blast ducking into little boutiques to taste and shop, and every stop felt personal. Etienne carefully crafted the whole experience around what we loved most about Paris. Couldn’t have asked for better — thank you!

Matthais was amazing!!

Matthias was an absolutely perfect tour guide. He was courteous and kind and extremely well educate it. He not only speaks fluent English, but used to also live in Spain so he is fluent in Spanish as well as being a native Parisian. We are so grateful for his kindness. He was also so very kind to have patience with us helping us find the bathrooms on the tour:))

Susan was terrific and...

Susan was terrific and made sure our (very tired from traveling) family had a great time and took care to ensure we were comfortable and happy. She also helped to provide some specific recommendations for dining and gave us a needed education on the Paris transportation system! Thank you for a good time on our first day!
