Latest reviews from our guests

Delishiya was amazing - knowledgeable, fun and she really understood what we were looking for - an off-the-beaten track tour of the Marais neighborhood, the Jewish highlights - a Temple, Anne Frank garden and Holocaust memorial, the best falafel in town, and a wonderful bakery - plus fascinating historical churches and buildings that are now museums and libraries, wonderful little cafes and vintage shops. Plus she gave us great tips for further exploring and evening activities and an app to help us get around Paris on our own. She is a gem, and really added the perfect touch to our Paris Ian experience!

During my business trip to France, I seized the opportunity to explore Paris during a long weekend. Knowing little about the city and lacking a planned itinerary, I opted to book a private tour. I was matched with Pascal, an exceptional guide. With his expertise, he familiarized me with navigating Paris and unveiled numerous off-the-beaten-path gems beyond the typical landmarks, places I would have never found myself. Pascal tailored the tour to my interests seamlessly, ensuring a memorable and personalized experience. Throughout our exploration, he shared his extensive knowledge of places, people, and history making it all the more enlightening and enjoyable. As our tour concluded, Pascal recommended the top attractions aligned with my interests, ensuring I made the most of my limited time in the city.
