Raphaël Was an AMAZING guide ! His knowledge was so insightful and the tour itself was an amazing introduction to the city - I was able to see so many sights on my first night - and get a sense of where things are in the city. He was flexible with stopping and was open to any additional requests - HIGHLY recommend this tour ! It was an experience I’ll never forget

Best way to see Paris!

100% best way to explore Paris! We had an amazing time with our host Rapahel! He was informative, funny and made the experience so inclusive. Will definitely recommend

Amazing experience! Highly recommend.

Brett_P, Jul 2025
I did this experience yesterday and it was amazing. Rafael was a great host and was able to cater the trip to my wife and I wanted to see. His motorcycle inside car were extremely safe and he provided helmets for us to wear. He picked us up from our hotel and drove around the city showing us some great hidden gems. Seeing Paris this way was the highlight of our trip. Don’t sleep on this experience and sign up now!

Great way to see Paris
