My reviews

    David was eager to share his wealth of knowledge, history and architecture tailored to what I was interested in. He was extremely friendly and very professional at the same time. He enlightened me to see and appreciate things and places I otherwise would have walked by unnoticed or appreciated. He earned my highest recommendation. A world of difference between a focused private tour versus the taxing group tour where there is always one that holds the group up or asks too many questions.

    David provided great communication leading up to our arrival, and was extremely flexible with our plans, as first-time visitors to Paris. He offered great suggestions, was able to go at our pace, and knew just what we needed,—catering to our passion for history. The most useful and appreciated experience was guiding us through the metro system, and of course, the lively conversations. We’ll never forget Paris and we’ll also never forget David. His love for the city and meeting new people is apparent. -Would recommend him to all.
