Hi everyone! My name is Hristo, and I'm a proud local host in the beautiful city of Paris. As a lover of history and architecture, I'm always in awe of the stunning buildings and monuments that grace this city's streets. There's nothing quite like taking a leisurely stroll through the charming historical neighborhoods of Le Marais, Montmartre, Saint-Germain-des-Pres, or the Latin Quarter, stopping for a coffee at one of the many street cafes along the way. For me, Paris is not just about the stunning sights; it's also about the wonderful ambiance and cultural richness that can be experienced by just simply being here. I'm an expert when it comes to the city's history, the best neighborhoods for a night out, and the must-visit cultural and arts venues. Let me show you the Paris I love and why it's such a special place!

We had a fabulous morning with Hristov. He was so great and really catered the tour to our needs. He also provided me with great tips via email ahead of our tour. By the end of the day my family was awed by how many major historical landmarks we had been able to see in a day. I would highly recommend this tour. If you do it in the summer be sure to bring something to shade yourself with, water, comfortable walking shoes, and patience for crowds. We started early on a Sunday, and had the city to ourselves for the first few hours, but it got busy quickly.

With only one day in Paris on a layover, we made the most of it with an eight hour walking tour for first time visitors that passed through what felt like every notable building in central Paris. The tour was easy to book, we were able to specify our interests, and our guide Hristo kept in touch with us in advance to organize an itinerary and coordinate a meeting location. The tour was completely customizable and in our case focused on historic and cultural highlights, meandering along both banks of the Seine and then to the Arc and Eiffel Tower. Hristo provided in depth knowledge of historical facts and features on each of our stops, answered all of our questions, and provided his own personal perspectives through the walk. We took breaks when needed, visited extra places when we were ahead of schedule, and as we finished slightly early, got some help finding a place for dinner. It was a long day with a ton of walking but well worth it!

Firstly, we were worried when our originally assigned guide cancelled due to illness. However, your speedy customer care reassigned a host very quickly and to our delight Hristo was amazing! He contacted us quickly, received our interests with hours to spare and had an excellent route and facts to present for an 8 hour tour. We truly felt it was meant to be after all. The 8 hours covered a lot of territory and sites but never felt rushed or hurried. Hristo was very engaging and made the day one to remember for a lifetime!
