It rained all day. In the morning to avoid the rain, we went the Pantheon in the Latin Quarter. Then we met with our tour guide, a young man very knowledgeable and kind. We went on the long walk he had planned and listened attentively as we all got soaked. When we reached Café de Flore on Blvd Saint Germain, we parted our ways to have some food. I highly recommend this’s tour.
My husband and I were lucky enough to get a tour guide to ourselves. Tim was great - a wealth of information and an incredibly nice guy to spend the afternoon with. We loved being able to walk the street of Paris, and learn more about the city's incredible history. And ending the tour with bread, cheese, pastis and petonque was perfect.
Highly recommended. Vivienne was highly knowledgable, down to earth and dedicated.
Our tour was amazing. Arthur was very knowledgeable about the area and a real pleasure to be with. Highly recommended the tour
Rafael was a good tour guide. He provided a lot of information about the areas we visited and we all had a very interesting conversation with him. The charcuterie sample platter was good too. We did not play a game of petanque, so this should be removed from the description of the tour.
Good pace, excellent and knowledgeable guide
Very enjoyable tour. Adele was very informative and fun.
