Traveller Tips

This tour isn't for those who don't like a lot of walking, but it was overall a better experience than just riding a bus around the city.

This is a great way to see the highlights of Paris, get oriented to the city and it’s history, figure out the metro, and get some exercise!

Marianne is the best guide ever!

Mary_C, Mar 2023

I am so glad we did this trip for our first visit to Paris. Marianne was a fantastic guide, she was very informative and I wouldn’t have believed I could have seen and learned so much in one tour. She was great fun and an absolute pleasure to have as a guide.

Andrew was a great guide,...

Andrew_A, Mar 2023

Andrew was a great guide, very informative and friendly! This tour was a great way to see many of the major sights of Paris all in one go.

Fun day! Many great sites!!

Kristal_G, Mar 2023

This was a great tour! Sophia was an amazing guide. She answered all of our many questions and showed us things we would have missed if we had tried to see all the sites on our own. Time well-spent!

An absolutely must do walking tour of Paris

VALERIE_T, Mar 2023

Mariane was an AMAZING guide for our small group of 9 ….. It was a wonderful way to see sooo many Paris highlights in one walking tour and get to know some great places for a coffee, snack or lunch, as well as learning to navigate the metro. If you are thinking of this tour, just go ahead and book it. Well worth it. We LOVED ❤️ it merci Mariane 🙏💞

Bring your walking shoes and open ears!

Jordan_P, Mar 2023

This is a great tour to take if you want to squeeze most of your sightseeing out in one day! My guide, Andrew, was every well versed on the history and fun facts about the city and and was very generous and patient. It ended up being a one-on-one tour, so he took the time to explain everything in detail. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants a guided tour of Paris. Thank you again!

Great way to see the city

Jeff_R, Mar 2023

Due to the transportation strike our amazing guide Marian had to do a lot of research the night before the tour to make it an all walking tour and she did a great job! So much fun, great information, and super group. Thanks!

Great tour for all major sights in Paris

Max_V, Mar 2023

Great tour to see all major sights in Paris! Sophia, our guide, was truly knowledgeable. We chose for this tour to get some background information on all the sights, and Sophia delivered! Group size was perfect with less than 10 persons. All information received prior was accurate. We both enjoyed the tour very much!

Amazing!! Would recommend.

Chloe_M, Mar 2023

Worth the money!! Overall amazing and would recommend. Saw so many sights in Paris. The tour guide we had was so polite and amazingly helpful. Took us to an amazing cafe! Would 100% recommend this experience.

Paris with Ewen

Johanna_T, Mar 2023

Our guide Ewen really brought history to life for us with thoughtfulness and humor. This tour oriented me to the City and the metro system in a helpful and fun way. The most memorable part was Ewen’s explanation of the martyrdom of St. Denis, demonstrating how he walked while carrying his own head.

Best family time ever

Naiwhedai_S, Mar 2023

All the connections we ended up having with our tour guide. Turns out we went to the same college and our tour mates were such familial south Korean women

Great tour w/ Andrew!

NOT SAFE TOUR

jing_e, Feb 2023

Do not believe what they describe on small group. For my reservation about 20 people showed up. Can you imaging

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Hello Jing Eng, Firstly the foot fall in Paris for my tours on the week day you came (the week after valentines) wouldn't allow for 20 people to book the tour. If if it was 20 guests (which it certainly wasn't) 2 guides would have been on hand to split the group. We are very careful about group sizes and take safety very seriously. I would like to post my response that I sent in a private message before I saw your 1* review. Now that I have seen your review I regret taking my time writing it...I believe the real issue was that your youngest child didn't want to do the tour and was causing an embarrassing situation. Dear Jing Eng, Thank you for your messages. I just wanted to say that I think there has been some miscommunication along the way because on your refund request you stated that the guide did not show up. Perhaps that is a just an option you are presented with when filling out a refund request but you did join the tour at that day. I have also attached the group photo from your tour that day (the date is in the title) you can see there are only 8 adults and 2 children. With your booking it would have made 10 adults and 4 children. This is not the group of 20 that you state in your above message. We are always careful not to over-crowd groups because of the negative impact that can have. On this occasion the option for us was to either, not allow you to join the nearly sold out group or let you book and we would go 2 kids over the group limit. From our side perhaps we should have asked you first if you would have been ok with that and for this we are sorry. I have now updated the group number to 15 in case this may happen in the future. We do always want to be as transparent as we possibly can. I did call you as soon as I was alerted to you and your families absence from the group. The guide also tried to call you but on both occasions it proved impossible to connect to your phone, so I text you instead in the hope that you would receive it. You did, and you can see from our text message exchange. In the exchange I also sent you the guides contact details stating the group was waiting for you to rejoin. At no point did you mention anything about group size. I do not believe that was the real issue. However had we been informed of your concerns this could have been cleared up much sooner. We didn't know anything until a week later when a refund request saying the 'guide never turned up' came into my in box. Which wasn't true. Normally refunds are only given 24hrs before the tour not a week after. However on this occasion we are willing to offer a 50% refund and hope that this makes up for any misunderstandings. I take this opportunity to wish you and your family all the best. Kind regards, Daniel. So I made the refund. I hope you have the decency to edit your review so it is at least it is truthful. Sadly I won't be holding my breath. (Holds head in hands)
