Pascal is the very BEST! He met us at our hotel. I asked him to teach us the metro, which he did!!! He took us to St. Germain and we walked and explored the surrounding area. He showed us hidden court yards and back streets. He took us in and around the art district, to the place Ben Franklin started writing the constitution. He spoke English very well. Had a great understanding of the rich culture and history of the area we were in. Thank You so much Pascal!!

Pascal was most obliging making sure our physical Needs were met and ensuring that he tailored the tour to our interests and went at our pace. He is very knowledgeable and experienced as a result was able to take us to hidden treasures as well as many iconic tourist sites. He went above and beyond in giving us extra time to ensure that he not only advised us on interesting places to visit on our own but personally took us to a couple so we could have a pleasant experience including Galleries Lafayette. Pascal is a very friendly man to whom we easily related. We would highly recommend him as a guide with whom one can easily communicate and is genuinely interested in ensuring one has a tour that addresses one’s interests and needs.

Your questions, answered
Is this a traditional tour or something different?
This isn’t a traditional tour with a fixed script. It’s a fully personalized day shaped around your interests, whether it’s culture, history, neighborhoods, or hidden local spots. Your host is a knowledgeable local, more like a friend showing you their city. It’s flexible, one-on-one, and tailored entirely to you.
How does personalization work?
After booking, you’ll receive a short questionnaire where you can share your interests, travel style, and any must-see spots. Based on that, we’ll match you with a local host who’ll reach out to plan your personalized itinerary..
What if I don’t know what I want to explore?
That’s completely fine! Select an experience theme or a flexible discovery experience, and after booking, answer a few questions so your host can design the perfect experience for you.
Will I know my itinerary in advance?
Yes, you will have the opportunity to chat with your host directly and agree on a plan for the day. However, there’s always room for spontaneity and local surprises!
Can I request specific places or types of stops?
Yes! After booking, you will receive a questionnaire where you can highlight must-visit spots and anything else you’d like to include, and your host will craft your experience around them.
Will I see famous landmarks or just hidden gems?
Both! Your host will take you to iconic sights if you want to see them, but they’ll also introduce you to places and stories most travelers miss.
Can I change the meeting place?
Yes, you will be in touch with your host before your experience, and you can agree on a different meeting point with them. Your host can meet you anywhere central that’s convenient.
Can my host meet me at my accommodation?
Hotel meet-ups are available upon request in central areas. If you're staying outside the city, your host will recommend the best meeting spot and guide you with directions.
