The perfect start to our trip!

Brittany_M, Mar 2025

We had an excellent time, our guide Rami was so engaging and knowledgeable about the areas we were visiting and especially the focal points. We did the shorter tour, but were joined by others who chose the 5 hour tour and we were done at right around the 2 hour mark with the Arc, as expected. We had so much drum for the rest of our trip spotting space invader art pieces and copy cats and using the app, that was such a fun little piece of insight into the community that we will carry with us in future travels. Thank you Rami for the wonderful evening, and especially for taking some beautiful photos of our family along the way!!

Highly recommend for an intro to Paris highlights

Sam_O, Feb 2025

A really engaging tour with a lovely guide who was very knowledgeable & really went the extra mile to ensure everyone enjoyed the experience. A highlight of our weekend in Paris. Sascha built rapport & tweaked the content for his audience, particularly winning over my 11 year old son. Insight to the Metro was also very helpful & gave us confidence to use the Metro the rest of our trip

Highly Recommend

LaKeacha_J, Feb 2025

This tour was fantastic! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of each location and presented the information in an engaging and entertaining way. It was both informative and enjoyable—highly recommended!

Highlights of paris

Alyssa_F, Jun 2024

We appreciated Devon- he’s knowledgeable, friendly, willing to answer questions. The tour was informative and a must for first timers to Paris. We also received metro orientation.

Amazing, would book again !

Stephanie_N, May 2024

The tour was so much fun. Our tour guide went above and beyond to make sure we got to see everything and waA very knowledgeable. Cracked jokes, took our pictures and made sure we were all doing ok the whole time. The Arch was closed due to holiday but our tour guide, still found a way for us to get an Amazon view of it. 10/10 recommend !

A Good Way to see Paris up close

Bobby_D, Feb 2024

First, we are long-time Viator customers. Our experience on this tour was nothing short of exceptional. We had several interactions with Daniel and our guide was Eden. When everything goes well, no problem. We were running way behind and he was instrumental in guiding us to our group which had already started the tour. Eden was so welcoming and understanding, we were treated like family. As a guide, she was great...fluent English, funny, knowledgeable, and a joy to be around. The tour does involve a fair amount of walking and there is a ride on the Metro. We covered pretty much all of the sights that Paris has to offer. It allows you to decide which places you want to go back to and spend more time...highly recommend!!

Great experience!!!

Maria_S, Sep 2023

The tour was great and our guide very friendly and knowledgeable. We got to see many of the top Paris sights. Our tour lasted almost 4 hours and we got to experience so much!!!

10 top sites

JoAnn_B, Jul 2023

Loved Marianne but confused as to why it was supposed to be 10 top sights we only did 3 ( Montmartre , moulin rouge & train to arc du triomphe . Others traveled elsewhere with her . Why only 3 stops ? I’ve done this your before !

Worthwhile Tour

Anneliese_T, Jul 2022

We took only the 2 HR tour which for us was enough as we just arrived in Paris that morning. Touring Montmertre with a guide was definitely worth it. For us this was perfect and Romi (spelling) was excellent. It's a tour to recommend!

Overpriced for a very small tour

jake_O, May 2022

Was nice walking through the streets with our guide but it only lasted an hour and a bit. Didn't get enough history and would expect a much longer tour for what you pay. In comparison to Scotland, Ireland and Germany this tour falls very short. You pay the same amount for a massive day trip to the cliffs of Moher

Response from Host, May 2022

Hi Jake, We're so sorry you felt underwhelmed with our tour. We aim to achieve the right balance between history, fun stories, sightseeing and Parisian life (which I agree is over priced compared to other countries). We always want our clients to be totally satisfied and on this occasion we didn't achieve that. We thank you for your feedback and take it seriously as we always want to improve and give the best of ourselves. Kind regards, Daniel

Operators are not good!

Mona_Y, Mar 2022

I was 10 minutes late for my tour , I tried to catch up in other points but via tour operators were so late that every time they got back to me the tour was moved to another point . My complain is about the operators not the tour . I was late anyways. There isn’t any phone number in case of problems and the only contact is via email.

Response from Host, Mar 2022

Hello Mona, Thank you but I find your review a little unfair. You were correct when you said you were late but it was closer to 20mins not 10 (and if you include the request to arrive 10mins before the start time then it's more like 30mins late). I understand Clients are new to Paris, its not always easy to navigate, that's why I ask them to be 10mins early and allow a 10min window after the start time. I believe that to be fair as I must also think to the others in the group who have arrived on time. Unfortunately once the tour has started it is difficult to catch up with the group especially if you arrive at the meeting point 20mins late. I knew you were with your family and felt bad for you, so I offered you a free upgrade to join the extended, longer version of the tour for free, which I am not obliged to do and actually have never done before. So I certainly learned my lesson. I wrote out a new meeting point at 11am at a cafe where you could wait for the group to arrive. I didn't call you because you stated clearly in your messages that your phone wasn't taking calls. I gave you the exact address of the cafe meeting point. The time and the closest metro station. More than that I don't know what I could have done. You seem to think I have many operators but it's just me. But I thank you for being honest that you were late and hope that the rest of your trip went more smoothly. Best wishes, Daniel
