    Pascal was a fantastic tour guide. He did bring us away from the crowds wich was perfect. We were able to explore Montmartre in a different way. He did provide us with countless stories and anecdotes and gave us precious suggestion to finish our day.

    Our guide was very knowledgeable. Had a great sense of humor knew his way around. Paris took us to see things that no one else in Paris are ever going to see. We enjoyed the tour tremendously, but we also enjoyed his company during the whole thing. It was a great day in Paris.
