Great tour guide

Our tour guide Florian was great. It was supposed to be a semi-private tour, but it ended up being just my family of four. A lot of these tours in Paris do seem overpriced to me for what they are, but we enjoyed our time and got to see a lot. Eiffel Tower, I have booked multiple tours through Viator in Paris, and again they all seem very pricey to me, but without the guide, you would learn a lot less history and not always know the best things to go see.

Napoleon's Triumphs

Our guide Michael was extremely well versed in history. We focused on Napoleon and the battles he won leading to his coronation as Emperor. We then visited both the military church and the adjoining church with Napoleon's tomb. The churches were stunning, especially the dome, statuary and incredible marble edifices. Michael was quite charming and interesting.
