Patricia gave a detailed and very entertaining historical tour of two areas of Paris, with stories of many who lived there, the buildings, and of course, the pastries. We also were able to our Balzac’s home. She went out of her way to take us to a beautiful local park as well. We really enjoyed it all. Highly recommend!
